    I also think so. A rule to fix an issue with another rule (or the complaints that a flyer can only go out of iso and imm on a 1, which is bad, yes). Better make them touchable if they are imm (like they slowy sink because their AG device fails working).

    Getting back on topic - Red Eye is the only flyer in my meta for now so I've not dealt with other flyers yet. What are people's experiences facing flyers of other factions?

    While that would be great for simplicity, it would also allow people to engineering repair flyers, which would make things even worse. So I am fine with this minor rule.

    only if they are imm ;-) and also would be vulnarable vs cc attacks.

    I went against the Go Pod. MSV can only get rid of the Mim-3. Not the BS -3. But if you do it hit it, it's only ARM2. So even small arms can potentially take it out.

    I FINALLY used the Feiquan. I had to use a proxy. I don’t like proxies but wanted to try it. It was the Multi-rifle, in White Banner, vs. Shasvastii.

    I can say it was, ok. I had an ideal situation playing against Shasvastii to use its sensor. I used it once out of LoS to discover a Seed Soldier and once in LoS to discover a Shrouded. But both of these were things I could have done with a Weibing. The movement was nice but again I could have done nearly the same with the Weibing and its Tac Aware order. Even with all the movement when I was trying to shoot anything they were outside of 16” and the X-Visor didn’t do much since it only brings the -3 down to zero. Better than nothing but not helpful against the mim -3 and cover I had to deal with. It was taken out by Corax mid-game. Having only a single Akrylate to shoot over 16” kind of sucks. I wish they gave both versions the +1 SD. The Mim -6 is good but then No Cover so rule. Not so good. Corax was only at -3 with 4+1 dice. So, at most I accomplished to use Sensor twice.

    I’ll keep trying it. I want to give it a chance. But I still feel it needs a weapon that can get a +3 over 16”. If they just changed it to a Multi-Marksman, I’d be happier.

    I know some like the Pitcher version. But I’d only take that if I had hacking in mind from the start. I wish they would bring back Sniffers. Now THAT would be helpful on it. And then after it’s shot its Pitchers, what does it do? I would need to get within 16” to use the E/M Carbine effectively because that version doesn’t have the X-Visor! Then when you do get with 16” you are now inside the enemies +3 range making your Mim-6 less effective. Or worse, inside template range.
