What is the essential loadout cards for the Tie Silencer (Kylo) and what are cards to add if you have leftover points?

Title, PTL, Advanced Sensors, Advanced Optics, Autothrusters. Costs 47 points, and I would honestly not run him without all of it. If I HAD to cut something I guess it would be the Optics, but I think I'd prefer just swapping in a couple different ships rather than short change Kylo.

Thanks - you wouldn't switch out advanced optics for Primed thrusters in case you ran into a stress list? Or are stress lists not a thing anymore?

Optics are useful in more scenarios- Primed Thrusters are only good if you are fighting a stress-heavy list, so generally Optics give you much more return.

still not sure the Title is all that, the reroll is nice and inevitable green dice betrayal insurance is handy but its the first thing I'd drop if points squeezed

There's nothing else that adds to the Silencers defensive capabilities other than autothrusters. Without the re-roll, the silencer is extremely weak defensively when compared to other aces.

maybe but isn't the art of flying Kylo to arc dodge as much as able and control return fire via Show ?

Yes, but having a once per game get out of jail free card if a defense roll tanks is so freaking valuable. Plus, since the Silencer is almost always the last ship alive, the tile will proc a lot in the end game which ups his firepower considerably.

Basically, if you are going to run a silencer. Its going to be Kylo and he WILL always cost 47 points.

Remember that the SIlencer doesn't have an Evade action. Even when you are good at dodging arcs, one mistake can sink you. The title can be a real life saver.
