I have an imp/scum list I've been meaning to try that involves two Firesprays with anti pursuit lasers, missiles and cluster mines, using their low pilot skill to just get in the way and cause traffic jams and bumps. You can use that :v I also have a three star viper list using either pulse rays or autothrusters and PTL to dance around and be as obnoxious as they can. I dunno which is better for that tho.

I should clarify that it's a 4 round tournament and I'd like to go 2-2. So dumb but okay, bust mostly dumb.

So dumb but okay, bust mostly dumb. https://geordanr.github.io/xwing/?f...rran%2FRex&obs= This is a really scary jousting list. You'll get wrecked by anything that goes under Corran's shields (Kylo, Proton Bombs, multiple harpoons (one probably won't hurt you)) but does well against most everything else. Swarm Leader on Lowhhrick is just hilarious. I'm like 25-10 with this list, and almost every one of those losses was to Kylo or Nym. https://geordanr.github.io/xwing/?f...oe%20Solo!&obs= Set up Han at approximately range 4 of something you're likely to kill with a 5-die cruise missile shot. Go 4-forward, and kill it. Next round, try to bump into or arc dodge the enemy formation, so Han doesn't die. If you do this right you'll get the cruise missile back and be able to strafe them again in a couple of turns. Poe should go as fast as possible to get there on turn 3ish. Loses instantly to FennGhost, but stacks up hilariously well against almost anything else. I'm like 8-2 with this. https://geordanr.github.io/xwing/?f...su%20Bossk&obs= If you haven't flown this yet, you have to. Just once. You'll get smoked by anything with Black One, but you're going to erase a ship a turn otherwise. A few tips: -Start with Ketsu's arc forward, and always joust. -If you can make them bump Ketsu, you win. Peel them off your front bumper with the tractor beam, and go to town. -Always shoot with Ketsu first, and try to use the beam to get them in Bossk's primary arc. -Don't forget that chips is once per round. https://geordanr.github.io/xwing/?f=Scum%20and%20Villainy&d=v4!s!212:18,-1:43:15:;265:-1:55:15:T.16,U.36,U.128&sn=Scum%20Aces&obs= Fenn + Thweek + third ship of your choice. My favorite is probably Guri (PTL/Stim/New title/Autothrusters) or a good 'ol bumpmaster. Also works well with a party bus!

Thanks! Definitely going with Old/New Han & Poe or that Bossk & Ketsu list. Edit: ConfusedUs posted:https://geordanr.github.io/xwing/?f...su%20Bossk&obs= 3-1. Can confirm this is fun. Really enjoyed erasing ships in a single round of combat. Even if they're going to eventually get someone behind Bossk, you've already decimated their squad. Only wound up losing points in 2 of 4 games. Now I kind of want to bring it to store champs, but I would hate to see how bad it would be against Nymranda. canyonero fucked around with this message at 18:33 on Jun 21, 2018 |

Has anyone come up with something clever to fly the Saw's Renegade ships in that might not be awful? I'm running a tournament tomorrow and I'm the "I play if they need an even number of players" guy. I don't necessarily want to win but I'd like to make them sweat a little. If not with the U-wing I'd take a fleet of X-wings.

So jealous, there is a tournament next Saturday and the guy running isn't allowing wave 14 for some dumb reason. I so wanted to fly a reaper or some new and improved T65s.

lazerus06 posted:Trying to narrow down what to bring to a tournament next weekend. Something with new toys: So from my limited experience flying Saw yesterday, I love him and think he has a ton of potential, but you have to go whole hog on stress. That means: -Accepting you’ll never have any actions. -Taking Hera crew for infinite 0 stops and 180 flips. -Not putting too many points into him (Since 8 HP with two defense dice isn’t particularly durable) -Understanding that, at his core, Saw is a support ship-his real value is in providing rerolls to other stressed ships. To get the most out of Saw and lists with Saw in them, the best thing to do, in my view, is going to be to fill it with ships that can self-stress. In my case yesterday, I used Wes with Stressbot and Wedge with Opportunist, and got a ton of utility having access to extra re-rolls. When flown properly, it’s like having Predator on all your ships for free-with, obviously, some significant limiting factors.

That ship is going to be expensive I’m sure if you pair it with the escape pod for the additional HP. Also kind of miffed that the escape actually has attack dice.

Honestly I would be okay with an EPT that let you use the crew ability of a named pilot, but it should definitely come with a cost.

A card that requires you to have two characters that have both a crew and a pilot version. At the end of the round it allows you to gain a stress token to switch pilot and crew.
