ConfusedUs posted:I think the problem is no longer with jumpmasters. Instead, I think it's advanced SLAM cluster mines that keep their natural predator (high agility autothruster aces) in check. Jumpmasters or Mindlink is going to get a big nerf and Miranda/Adv Slam will be untouched. Pretty sure mindlink is the only thing that is consistantly in with a chance of putting miranda down. Impressed that rebel jank made it to top 4. Braylen/Jess/Biggs/Rex

This is the issue I have seen the past few months in my meta. The typical turn out has become mostly Rebel with Biggs or Miranda or both in every list. Aces cant come out because they melt to bombs and spend their short life targeting tankmaster Biggs. I swear if Jumpmasters and Mindlink take a hit and nothing in the current Rebel bs does, I'm dumping this game.

Slam is the only thing that makes bombs work though. Take that away and youre left with them sitting on the shelf with punishers. Just fix sabine

Oh that poor HWK. Torpedoes put two crits onto hull, and he pulls direct hit and major explosion, which he rolls into another direct hit

Top 16 were apparently 12 Scum, 3 Rebels, 1 Imperial. Definitely gonna see a Jumpmaster fix this summer Edit: VVV the last wave was straight from the movies and TV, not very obscure alg fucked around with this message at 02:43 on May 8, 2017 |

Is there a good overview somewhere on where the different ships come from, in terms of SW media? They seem to be getting more and more obscure, but then I haven't really kept up with Star Wars since the late nineties.

I don't know of a collected overview, but they seem to prioritize new canon, video games, and comics in that order. I'm not aware of anything that was exclusively novel based, and I guess the Raider is FFG created. Edit: KongGeorge, sorry I missed you. Hope MN treated you well!

The internet is confused now. They are having trouble deciding what to cry about. They just can seem to decide if they want mindlink nerfed or Jumpmasters

High PS arc-dodging/autothrusters aces eat Jumps for breakfast. But they're all DOA against Miranda, so they're nowhere to be found.

They won't touch ADV Slam and most people won't advocate it because it's easier to point out the symptom and not the disease The funny thing was not to long ago There were a ton of Palps in big tournaments and I did not see half the outcry. I agree about high PS aces. I play jumps a lot and I play against them when I don't fly scum and I win a significant number of my games In other news Kylo's Tie has been leaked or at least the hotwheel version. https://makingstarwars.net/2017/05/kylo-rens-starfighter-from-star-wars-the-last-jedi/

Torpedoes also shut down high agility autothruster aces pretty hard. Even at range 3, 2x4 hyper-accurate dice is gonna tag Soontir for a hit. But I'd agree that any fix to the Jump also needs to be accompanied by a fix for Sabine (make her discard-on-use) and Advanced SLAM (make it give a stress).

I love that Gerry Russel made it to top 4 with a Rebel Jank list. I was also really impressed with the level of sportsmanship shown in the top 16. There were a few games that players called out shots their opponent forgot to take and let them. Pretty sure the one Mishary pointed out to Gerry in part led to him losing. Just good to see that happening after what happened on day 1b. Here is a partial list of what was flown on day 2 http://lists.starwarsclubhouse.com/get_tourney_details?tourney_id=2838

Mate, I roll crits like you wouldn't believe, the Daredevil downside is just too swingy for my liking. With the broll I imagine he can get in and disrupt bombing runs, and dropping manaroo and scouts locks is pretty handy too. With Daredevil I imagine you swoop back and forth across the map like a bat.

You bring Engine Upgrade as well. And yeah, Kylo with Daredevil, PA, Inspiring Recruit is super nimble. But I've yet to make him work well enough to be competitive.

He's too expensive to have have good enough wingman. I think OL with Inq are the baseline, mainly because they're both effective from range 3. Also can Snap with adaptability equip the black one title? Adaptability is on deploy, but when is the "equip" timing?

Just had a good laugh. Decided to go through my stupidly long list of 100 point squads and clear out some of the garbage. Apparently one night after the last FAQ and a weee bit of bourbon I built Justin Phua's list except I had a rigged cargo chute on Dengar. edit: Also the guy who got cheated has a podcast and the post world's episode is up. https://3point2company.com/podcast/2017/5/8/worlds-x-wing-day-2-3-worlds-changed-you-man Raged fucked around with this message at 13:14 on May 8, 2017 |

Trying to put together a list for store championships using my favorite ships. Would this stand a chance? Fenn Rau (28) Push the Limit (3) Autothrusters (2) Concord Dawn Protector (1) Bossk (35) Fearlessness (1) Cluster Missiles (4) Dengar (3) 4-LOM (1) Boba Fett (1) Burnout SLAM (1) Guidance Chips (0) Jakku Gunrunner (15) Intelligence Agent (1) Pattern Analyzer (2) Spacetug Tractor Array (2) Total: 100 View in Yet Another Squad Builder Would like to fit Scavenger Crane on Bossk but not sure where to steal the extra point from. Might also slot in Determination depending on how many Kylos I see on practice day.
