I was thinking something along the lines of this for Soontir Fel.code:

I'd actually run that, I wonder if the Targeting Computer is worth it, otherwise I'd just run Avenger SQ. pilots.

Actually managed to get the night off work for Imdaar. Thinking of running Krassis and a pair of Ints since I'm getting a little bored with swarms. Maybe something like this. Krassis Trelix — Firespray-31 36 Heavy Laser Cannon 7 Soontir Fel — TIE Interceptor 27 Push the Limit 3 Targeting Computer 2 Royal Guard Pilot — TIE Interceptor 22 Push the Limit 3

I got to thinking about 300 pt epic squadrons, and I came up with what I think can only be called "Literally a Squadron of Interceptors". Royal Guard Pilot & PTL x12

DJ Dizzy posted:I was thinking something along the lines of this for Soontir Fel. Those alphas are expensive and are going to die really fast without access to PTL. Target lock on interceptors can work if its on your flank ship, only noone is going to let you flank with those Ints since they're the only threat you have. They're just going to fly straight at them and try to joust you.

That's right and Targeting Computer is dubious on an Alpha but

Played this to night: Soontir Fell w/ Ptl Turr Phennir w/ VI 2x Alpha w/ Opportunist Against Keyan Farlander w/ Opportunist Jek Porkins w/ Opportunist Wes Jansen w/ Adrenaline Rush. Might be forgetting one upgrade on opponent. And won with Turr remaining. Then I swapped Opp for Hull upgrades on the alphas and a targeting computer on Soontir. I lost that game because i let myself feel rushed and kept making white maneuvers with stressed Soontir. Opponent flew well, but i like this list a lot and feel like i could take on most comers with it. I often lose alphas early and then outfly 3 ships with just one of the named pilots. Is amazing how capable Soontir, totally alone, is against multiple foes.

You mean Saber SQ. Interceptors, right? Alpha's don't get an EPT.

Haha, no guess I just cheated. It didn't come into play anyway. I swapped it out because the Alphas never survive long enough to do anything.

Seeing as I am an entirely clueless player who have no idea about faction strengths and whatnot, I cooked up a rebel list. Wedge - Shield upgrade, R2, Marksmanship Biggs - Shield upgrade, R2-D2 Dutch - Ion Cannon, R5-K6

I really don't see anything wrong with that squad, it's a pretty standard 3-ship Rebel list. With everyone always talking about the new ships it's pretty refreshing to see a squad using mostly Wave 1 cards.

Got to play some "quickstart" rules games this evening with some co-workers. Everyone enjoyed it, but being able to execute red maneuvers every turn led to the x-wing 4 space u-turning constantly and destroying the tie fighters who weren't able to move out of the firing arc often enough. Was fun though!

Saw this posted elsewhere. It looks pretty legit to me, even the Blackmoon Squadron Pilot looks right from the zoomed out preview. e: If this is indeed correct then it's not half bad, it's close to the TIE Fighter as far as movement dials go except it looks more like a TIE Adv. at speed 1. I don't the Rebel players will be disappointed, except maybe a 4 or 5 speed green. Recoome fucked around with this message at 03:07 on May 15, 2014 |

No green turns and no 1 turn at all kinda sucks, actually. It's better than the X-Wing by the slimmest of margins I guess.

I guess you are right, the pilots the E-Wing can carry make it really good. We can also reasonably expect the PS3 Blackmoon Squadron E-Wing to be 29 points too, unless it has an EPT then I don't think it'll see much use. Honestly beside Corran Horn and E'tahn whatever I don't like the E-Wing at all, even if I played Rebels more. I think the X-Wing is already a great generalist and I can't justify to myself getting it just for the cards, I already will be getting Predator, Outmaneuver and whatever else in the Defender pack.

I just started tinkering around in the squad builder, and I noticed there are now crew cards for Han Solo and Leia Organa. I can't seem to find a source for these though. Where were they spoiled?

zVxTeflon posted:Odd It doesnt show me Leia or Han for crew. Strange. I'm still seeing them, via the crew buttons on Han Solo's ship. Here's what it says: Leia Organa (4) Unique, Unreleased At the start of the Activation Phase, you may discard this card to allow all friendly ships that reveal a red manoeuvre to treat that manoeuvre as a white manoeuvre until the end of the turn. Han Solo (2) Unique, Unreleased When attacking, if you have a target lock on the defender, you may spend that target lock to change all your (focus) results to (hit) results.

Leia has her uses, but Han Solo letting you spend Target Locks as focus for attacking is kinda crap, unless you put it on something that can lock more than one ship at a time.

Where were they spoiled? It says they're in the Tantiv IV pack to me. When you look at them as an option for a Crew slot, the set they're in appears on the far right across from their name. Personally, I think C-3PO is a neat guy for something like the Falcon; once per turn you can basically guarantee yourself at least 1 evade result. Just guess that you'll roll 0 Evades; then, you either roll 1 with the Falcon's one Agility die, and get an Evade, or you get none, and because you guessed right you get an evade for that. Seems a decent buy for 3 points.

somebody help me But seriously, this game is awesome. Played vs. my roommate, realized how awesome it is, stopped by my FLGS(es), bought everything I could get my hands on. I have maybe more money than sense (well, not anymore), but it hits my "pretty Star Wars ships," "fun game mechanics," and "organize loving everything" buttons.

midge posted:ID of that porn star plz. It's a Plano 1374 4-By Rack System. Comes with the four 3750-size interior boxes too. I got mine in-person at Gander Mountain and paid the want-it-right-now tax but they're surprisingly not too expensive on Amazon. Carteret posted:Anymore pics of your storage solution? You asked! It's pretty drat big, I'll be honest--probably too big but I figured hey, room to expand.  The top has a fairly crude hack-job of fabric-store foam to keep the GR-75 from rattling around. Hopefully it will fit the Corellian Corvette when it comes out too, longways.  I have a label-maker so I figured hey let's use it.  Detail on the boxes: Rebels. I was worried about the X-wing lasers getting bent so they're in their own compartments--everything else is hanging out with its associated bases.  Imperials. The shuttle just barely fits without anything else in there, height-wise. I'll probably put some foam in its compartment to keep it from rattling too much.  Tokens, dice, and GR-75/extra damage deck.  Cards and movement templates--this is really space-inefficient card storage but I like having them split by type and right now I have the room to spare.

We just played in the Milwaukee regional this past weekend as well, 3 of us managed 4-2. I got smoked by the North American champ, and lost a real close one to a Chewie/XX list.

Does anyone have any idea of when the nest series of ships is supposed to ship? I just got into this game a couple weeks ago and tagged some of the preorder ships on to a daily deal from the mini store so I'd get free shipping, and they're holding my entire order until the preorder stuff comes in. Because I haven't followed this game through the last few releases, I have no idea when I might be able to expect these to ship out.

I held off on Imperial Aces because the Transport was just around the corner, and then held off on the Transport because the Corvette is just around the corner. Now Wave IV is just around the corner, so I can hold off a little more. I'm saving so much money.
