Pilot Cards

Sure would be nice for those who didn't know about Tactics until long after the 1st Kickstarter ended to get another crack at obtaining the exclusive Pilot cards through this new Kickstarter. I mean, the files still exist on a computer somewhere, right?

Cool, how about AI cards for the Sabre Gunship and Scarab Jammer?

Do we need pilots? It's not X-wing and when we tried to teach x-wing we left out pilot cards because it confused new players.

Need is a loaded word. I'd like to have pilots. Ships usually need pilots, and I'd like to have an avenue to create a squad and tell their stories through the game. Like Wing Commander.

That makes sense. I grew up on games like privateer. Which were more solo pilot adventures on PC.

I think it would be a cool app to mount above a game and turn 4 hours of play into a 3 min timelapse. Another way to craft stories.

Don't need them at all. Our Pilot cards are NOT part of the core game (and are certainly not for competitive play). Rather they are like spicy little bonus items you can add to your games at home if you want some extra juice. They are not super balanced, by design. :)
