This seems like it would be a fun to fly triple T-70 list: Jess Pava — T-70 X-Wing 25 R2-D6 1 Pattern Analyzer 2 Snap Shot 2 Integrated Astromech 0 Ship Total: 30 Nien Nunb — T-70 X-Wing 29 Snap Shot 2 R3-A2 2 Primed Thrusters 1 Integrated Astromech 0 Black One 1 Ship Total: 35 "Snap" Wexley — T-70 X-Wing 28 Snap Shot 2 R7-T1 3 (E: I clicked the wrong thing, this is supposed to be a more different astro) Pattern Analyzer 2 Integrated Astromech 0 Ship Total: 35 Owlbear Camus fucked around with this message at 21:13 on Mar 29, 2017 |

I am not convinced that a XXX list is viable in this meta. The nerfs to Palp, Manaroo, and Zuckuss help a whole drat lot, but I'm still not entirely sure.

Swap Primed Thrusters and Pattern Analyzer for Jess/Nien also. With PA on Nien you can boost up into r1 to remove the stress from turning around. Can't do that that Primed.

Looks like I found some nice colors for when I paint some imperial assault: http://disneymusic.shop.musictoday.com/product/XVLP36/star-wars-headspace-jabba-flow-10-picture-disc (not that I wouldn't have used those colors anyway...)

You can put Hot Shot on Rex as well, which I think is hilarious. Strip the tokens at 12 and just be an rear end in a top hat all around.

That reminds me how my favorite track off that entire Star Wars: Headspace album has got to be Bounty Hunters by Röyksopp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPZJkKscK9M Someone on Reddit once asked people to contribute to an XWTMG public Spotify playlist for their games and I added a bunch of tracks off Headspace (including this one) and like a day later they straight up deleted all of them from the list. Sorry it wasn't Duel of the Fates for the millionth time, nerds.

I wish I had known about this album earlier. "R2 knows" is my favorite. I love these songs and they much more enjoyable to drive to instead of the star wars movie score. I tend to airbrush in the basement with EDH/hip hop reverberating around the walls so these are going into that general playlist mix.

ConfusedUs posted:Limited means only one per ship. Unique means one per list. So you could put an OpSpec on Rex and one on Roark. Ooooh right. I got those mixed up, thank you for the clarification! I feel pretty dumb now that I remember Extra Munitions is limited, too, and people run those on multiple ships at once all the time.

Rex with HotCop sounds super annoying. I could fit it in my list but then I lose Tactician and BMST, as well as Sensor Cluster on the T-70. Might be worth considering though. Edit: Actually I can keep BMST on him but then I rely on my opponent stressing himself.

I suppressed her at PS12, she was only taking 2-die TLT attacks at Biggs, who had focus/evade. Turns out that TLT is pretty weak with only two dice and staring at an evade token.

I should add that I switched out the ion bomb for seismic and it was worth it. This list's weakness is things getting behind it. So you can slowroll to help ensure a joust, then when they get past you, bomb them. I took out a wounded ship 2 out of 3 games this way last night.

I definitely want to try out that list (Or a variation) sometime. I've been thinking for a while about the best method to boost Rex up to a more threatening PS, and I never even thought of Roark. If I take it out myself though, I may try something like this: pre:Thane Kyrell (28) ARC-170 (26), Jyn Erso (2) Roark Garnet (27) HWK-290 (19), Twin Laser Turret (6), Jan Ors (2) Captain Rex (19) Sabine's TIE Fighter (14), Sabine's Masterpiece (1), Hotshot Co-pilot (4) Biggs Darklighter (26) X-Wing (25), R4-D6 (1), Integrated Astromech (0)  )

I'm thinking the best alternative would be throwing Tactician on Rex, but unfortunately I don't have that card either. (Though isn't that going to be one of the new tournament prizes? If so, I should be able to rectify that fairly soon).

Won my first game, lost the makeup game. First was Lothal Rebel, Zeb, Gemmer and a Z. Made him split fire and got Suppressive off on the TLT Ghost. Second match was Kylo and RAC. Got a little unlucky with some dice and ended up with just the Y-wing against RAC. He predicted my good moves twice in a row and put some damage on. Last turn ended up with both of us at 1 hull and he of course blew through me before I could fire. Decimator vs Y-wing is not a fight you can win without a large HP gap.

I use Sensor Cluster all the goddamn time, it has won me half a dozen games by itself as blank insurance to make an opponent keep shooting at a ship that should have been dead for sure by then. Plus it makes it so the odds of not getting two evades with Jess is statistically near zero.

I may try Weapons Guidance sometime; combined with R3 it might push my damage consistency up a bit. I absolutely need to crush everything in my path as quickly as I can because the rest of my list can't take the heat of heavy fire.

After I murdered him he just pack up and started painting his warhammer stuff. It's pretty great. I think the biggest, hardest decision with this list is going to be how to approach with the stresshog. It's really easy to invalidate it after the first pass unless you leave it unstressed for the K-Turn. I think I need to start putting it on the outside edge of the formation. Maybe even outside the Biggs bubble if the opponent doesn't have the firepower to kill it in one round. That would let it snipe the fight a bit more and it might be able to TURN instead of K-TURN to stay relevant.

This list is the new edition of rebel toolkit, and I look forward to my first game against it. I have a good feeling that my list can put out the amount of firepower required and defense needed to win the damage game. I'll largely be dice, I think, and whether I can successfully set up the bump on Biggs with the Falcon to drop Roark. I think he's the man behind Biggs' curtain on this one.
