That gives you 6 points which can be prudently reinvested in Advanced Sensors on both Ghosts to get that evade before a K Turn. or autoblaster turrets on both to make life dangerous for arc dodgers.

I wish every regional just said "bring in 2 copies of your list printed from a squad builder."

You think all the squad buildrs are reliable?

I keep seeing people load lists on Vassal direct from builders that are totally illegal, from minor things like Phantom title without Ghost (technically illegal but only relevant if they use Chopper astro), to pretty major things like Defective Plating on non-BSFs.

YASB is the only one I've yet seen that hasn't made a rules error I'm aware of.

All the others have had at least one major screwup in a public release.

I've decided to replace the Scavenger Crane on my Han Yolo list with Burnout SLAM.

I rarely have had the opportunity to use the crane, and every time I did, I was winning anyway.

Burnout SLAM, on the other hand, will let Han GTFO after getting that cruise missile off. Also I have a 1-point bid.

I like the idea of effects that apply only if you have shields or don't, but those particular implementations are pretty bad ;(

Hillariously it has almost no real way to deal damage to ships without shields.


I mean theoretically with a hotshot blaster, or snapshot or taking cad bane crew to get bombs....

Something like "If this attack hits and the ship has at least one shield token, remove two shield tokens from the defender. If you do, cancel all dice results."

A cannon maybe.

Double post, don't care.

I did your change tonight but I can't give you any data; I played a kid that was worried about his ISTEP tests soon. Had a naked Fenn, Corran with AccCorr/VI, and Wulf with VI/Gunner/Tactician. Never really had a need for SLAM but also didn't have a need for Boost.

I can definitely see the use but I also made good use of Leebo in one game. I'm interested to see how it treats you.

Played scum and went 2-4. Stupid, stupid, stupid target selection was my downfall. Assaj/Bossk were 2 of my losses. Both times it was a 50/50 call if boss was going to turn in and if he did not I would have Assaj on my butt. Both time if I had pushed to go for Bossk I would have murdered him. Same for Dash/Poe. Worst part is I know better.

Last loss was a the god of random chance taking a giant poo poo on me. Torani had lost shields. And was only looking at taking a range 3 3 die shot. He rolled 3 crits and I blank out and I got 3x Double Damage. Nearly the same with Joestero. Still almost won, came down to Kylo taking a range 1 shot from Nym without a focus. Needed 1 hit. Rolled 3, he blanked blew his tile and rolled natties. I just had to laugh.

Ended up going out to dinner with the Foss's and a couple other players. They were great to talk to and gave out tons of good advice.

Top 2 on the day were palp aces list. Only undefeated player was Travis Foss with

Edit: Also forgot the most important part. The incredible Bulk went 3-3. All his losses went to time. The people that beat him said that inexperience and bad commits are what caused him to lose. Had some joking threats of violence from people for giving him the list.

There's a guy here who has a great tournament shirt. It's Bob Ross, and it says "No mistakes, just happy accidents" which is a chill and good way to approach tournaments

Our frequent marshal/judge/TO wears one with Darth Vader that reads "Perhaps you think you are being treated unfairly?" which is a pretty great shirt for a judge. He also wears a blue judge vest with a big chrome plastic novelty sheriff star that reads MARSHAL

Sigh. Only seven players because of icy weather. Three of them had Lothal Rebel/Fenn Rau.

There's really no path to victory against that with Han Yolo, so I lost the first game 0-100, got the bye on the second game, decided to drop.

If T70s had three AGL instead of two, I’m sure a triple T-70 list would be a terror like it should be. Although with FAA, hunting down Harpo Gunboats is extremely fun and easy.
