Nien Nunb gets out of the Millennium Falcon and blasts onto the scene in his own T-70 X-Wing! Yee haa! Let’s take a look at this brave new pilot for the Rebels.
Nien Nunb is all about staying cool under pressure and his pilot ability allows him to shed stress at will. All he has to do is keep the enemy in his sights.
When you receive a stress token, if an enemy ship is inside your firing arc at Range 1 you may discard it. This is incredible for those tight quarters maneuvers and dogfights. An awesome elite slot for him would be Stay on Target. This EPT will allow him to change his maneuver on the fly and, hopefully shed his stress by keeping his enemy in his firing arc.
If you are feeling really devious you could make Nien Nunb the new platform for the dreaded Stressbot! Add R3-A2 to him and the stress will pile up for your enemies for certain. And Nien can just shed the extra stress, any number of times, as long as the enemy is in your arc at Range 1! Brilliant!
This could be the new way to take out Imperial Aces. Who knows?! It’s up to you young pilots to win the war. Let’s break it down:
Nien Nunb – Stay on Target + R3-A2 + Integrated Astromech = 34 points
Nien Nunb will surely give the imperials something to fear and stress about. And if R3-A2 isn’t working out for you, kick him out of your ship to discount a damage card.
How will you use the new pilots from the Heroes of the Resistance expansion?
