It's the Greek letter ξ, the x pronounced like a k+s and the vowel is like eye. Also, the cool thing about Cyberterex is that the range is huge, while you have to be range 1 to jam normally.
Unfortunately there isn’t much to choose from. They need more ships in lore. Rumor is that The Mandalorian will expand on knights of Ren lore, and I’m hoping x wing will list the knights of Ren as FO. Almost as an FO version of the Empire’s inquisitor type ship or something
@@Bennjammiinn I've seen it repainted in FO colors and I looks so good. I doubt they'll make it but at least the FO ships are more interesting than what the resistance got.
Talking about stealth, I wonder if this release is a stealthy way to reinvigorate the upsilon... FFG have said that first edition ships would not have new cards beyond what was in the upgrade pack, this really ties their hands with respect to maintaining balance. The cards here would thematically add to the upsilon and maybe a tweak to upgrade slots at the end of the year and you have a whole new ship
I’m still dying to see an I6 Kylo silencer pilot. The only pilot card he has was released before much was known about him or his heritage, and is him as a “tormented apprentice”. He has so many excellent pilots in his family tree, he’s easily the most well known good pilot in FO. He should get an I6 cards as “supreme leader”
Centuros Productions Not exactly what I’d call a critically thought-out or well explained response. It would make sense, lore wise. FO also has the least ships available, as of the next two groups of ship releases, and little-to-no other ships to even print. Not sure why you’d want you’d want to dissuade different versions of the few pilots in canon. The faction’s best, and arguably most well-known ship doesn’t have an I6. Seems just fine to want to see it..
The ship behind Agent Terex is the Carrion Spike, Terex got ahold of it in the Poe Dameron comics where it is destroyed. The look from the comics was the first time we saw it, and visually it looks somewhat similar to the stealth ship from clone wars but bigger and without the protrusions on the hull segments. Overall a great design.
Maybe the Xi like the Upsilon will have two tech slots, then it could have both the buoy and targeting synchronizer. I don't play First Order but I found a lot of succes with targeting synchronizer on the Resistance Transport, it really helps my A-wing and X-wings, that they can take focus/evade actions instead of target locks. I really wish the Resistance would have something similar, especially with the new X-wing turrets that are coming.
Man, I would love to see stealth be more of a thing in X-Wing. It kinda feels like a novelty right now but I’d love to run a stealth heavy list to see how that would work!
Do you think there's any chance they may include Finn and Rose as pilots for this as a bonus to the Resistance since they don't have a ship coming out in this wave?
Perhaps the Xi class shuttle is pronounced as 'She" class shuttle, similar to how in legends there was prince Xizor (pronounced 'she-zor')? I do believe that Terex had the Carrion Spike as well as a personal ship.
Didn't they bring Tarkin's ship back in the comic? I thought Poe or someone in the first order destroyed it after some First order officer went rouge with it.
Some good upgrades in this expansion, but I’m just baffled why they bothered with releasing this shuttle. FO already has the Upsilon which is a way cooler shuttle. This design is just...urgh. Like something someone at Lucasfilm just slapped together at the last minute. Would have much preferred a FO bomber or even a tie Dagger or Whisper. I’d even prefer a FO troop transport over this shuttle.
I’m most interested in the pilot not shown lol. No attack dice, three agility, initiative zero. Wonder if it’s supposed to represent the escape Xi. Could finally make for a unique, interesting build piece for FO, if it’s just a cheap way to add crew cards to a list, without spending full shuttle points. Can’t believe nobody’s talking about it
I’m 99% positive that isn’t a Xi but the remote card for the sensor buoys you drop using that tech. And that’s what most of us believe, hence the lack of discussion
Tim Underbakke ohhhh that makes sense. Too bad, that would’ve been really cool. I know I’m impatient, but I’m really hoping to see some slightly more exciting/ new/ different things come out for this faction. I feel like the potential is there
So let's see, the pilot alt-arts we need now: Agent T-Rex Commander Walrus some sort of evil Gideon Jura from MTG Also, about Cyborg Terex, remember that the Jam action is range 1 only, and his action is 0-3. Also, you're still potentially passing calculates (in addition to the three his other side gave out) or getting free calculates while you take a different action.
Yea buoy!!! Hahahahah shit had me weak First orderand resistance are my weakest factions...literally only have 1 Silencer for F.O. but this looks like it could be fun for some good support???
Americans do pronounce it like "Z + eye," but the actual Greek way to pronounce Xi is like "ksee." Xi is a fun Greek letter! ;) Greek letter trivia/fun facts: the Greek letter that looks like an English/Roman "x" is the letter Chi, which actually has a "ch" sound, as in Scottish "loch," which is why "Xmas" is an abbreviations for "Christmas," which comes from the fact that the letter Chi was used as an abbreviation for "Christ" by the early Christians! So, those who say "Remember when Xmas used to be Christmas?" to indicate how secularized the holiday has become, are actually wrong because spelling it with the Chi always and only means the religious meaning in the context of the earliest periods of the religion itself! I'm full of this useless information...it is what comes from multiple advanced academic degrees that touched on these things, for good or ill...!?!
8:55 Yes it has a white Jam, but remember that performing a jam is limited to range 1. This ability would let him jam a ship out to range 3.
It's the Greek letter ξ, the x pronounced like a k+s and the vowel is like eye. Also, the cool thing about Cyberterex is that the range is huge, while you have to be range 1 to jam normally.
Nice to see the 1st Order get a little love. I think they still need one or two more ships to really look good.
The FO Bomber!
Unfortunately there isn’t much to choose from. They need more ships in lore. Rumor is that The Mandalorian will expand on knights of Ren lore, and I’m hoping x wing will list the knights of Ren as FO. Almost as an FO version of the Empire’s inquisitor type ship or something
I also think that with the TIE whisper’s supposed cloaking tech, they could eventually make an FO version of the TIE phantom. That’d be awesome
@@Bennjammiinn I've seen it repainted in FO colors and I looks so good. I doubt they'll make it but at least the FO ships are more interesting than what the resistance got.
@@lonestar1132 Well, except for "just a TIE Fighter," "just a TIE Fighter with an antenna," and "Red TIE Interceptor (with bonus fins)"

Pretty happy with this expansion all around. Looking forward to using almost all these pilots in different builds.
I’m still dying to see an I6 Kylo silencer pilot. The only pilot card he has was released before much was known about him or his heritage, and is him as a “tormented apprentice”.

I5 Kylo is good enough, we don't need a better one.
@@centurosproductions8827 no He definitly should be L6

This is something first order needed

Looks exciting for the FO brothers and sisters.
It is Tarkin’s carion spike
cool shuttle and Hask returning is pretty cool
That is definitely the Carrion Spike in the background, same size as Raider / CR-90, so could be a new Huge ship coming for First Order
I just saw that too.
Maybe the Xi like the Upsilon will have two tech slots, then it could have both the buoy and targeting synchronizer. I don't play First Order but I found a lot of succes with targeting synchronizer on the Resistance Transport, it really helps my A-wing and X-wings, that they can take focus/evade actions instead of target locks.

yes finally the XI-class article, excited for the new shenanigans that can be bring to the first order
Man, I would love to see stealth be more of a thing in X-Wing. It kinda feels like a novelty right now but I’d love to run a stealth heavy list to see how that would work!
I’m really hoping the TIE Whisper - which is supposed to have cloaking - is printed as a small base stealth type fighter, similar to the phantom.
I only recently got into X-wing...what a rabbit hole...
I wish sensor buoy suite was available for other factions. That card looks like a lot of fun. Drop that on Redline as a sensor upgrade...
Do you think there's any chance they may include Finn and Rose as pilots for this as a bonus to the Resistance since they don't have a ship coming out in this wave?

Keep up the great work bud
Agent Terex can give me a Jam Token? As long as it's not Raspberry Jam. Only one man would DARE give me Raspberry... LONESTAR!!!
Still can’t wait
Also maybe the stealth ship with terexs card is a poe comic reference
Looks cool, would be even nicer if the wings could fold up.
very cool shuttle
Yes! Finally!

This next wave is going to have some impact.
Very excited
I'm just curious has any one done an x-wing 2.0 4 people free for all
I cant wait for the new wave in x-wing.
glad i got some first order ships from barnes and noble
So let's see, the pilot alt-arts we need now:
Agent T-Rex
Commander Walrus
some sort of evil Gideon Jura from MTG
Also, about Cyborg Terex, remember that the Jam action is range 1 only, and his action is 0-3. Also, you're still potentially passing calculates (in addition to the three his other side gave out) or getting free calculates while you take a different action.
This is going to power up swarms quite a bit
This might pull me back to the FO faction...
Xi is pronounced sort of like Chi in Chinese, so I figured it was pronounced like that.
Yea buoy!!! Hahahahah shit had me weak
First orderand resistance are my weakest factions...literally only have 1 Silencer for F.O. but this looks like it could be fun for some good support???
Yea buoy
If they’re following the Greek letter names, then it’s technically pronounced “ksi”. I guess they ran out of easy to pronounce letters.
To pay for this wave, A lot of overtime in my future do I see
hello there
general Kenobi
At least the xi isn't a complete copy and paste of another ship
Want the laat video
Americans do pronounce it like "Z + eye," but the actual Greek way to pronounce Xi is like "ksee." Xi is a fun Greek letter! ;)
