The Outrider would be cool if not somewhat redundant. Maybe some neutral bounty hunter type ships? The houndtooth or something or other I remember was kinda cool looking.

The problem with scale capital ships would be that the super star destroyer would still be huge as gently caress and a majority of the alliance ships would still be tiny even compared to a regular star destroyer. You cant even see a corellian corvette next to a SSD. The transport ships are even smaller than that.

In my completely unscientific testing I just rolled 100 dice and got a total of 19 Eye results. Then another 100 and got 29 Eyes. Im bad at math but I dont think thats gamebreaking.

Arrgytehpirate posted:After looking around at various list I've narrowed it down to two options for Saturday. I have all the stuff for the first list, and I can get the last 2 TIEs I need in time if I order them tomorrow, so I have to decide quick. Any thoughts/comments? Everyone is going to be focusing Han esp with no name fighters in your squad. Marksmanship seems kinda meh considering Hans pilot ability and the fact that Focus is nearly the same thing without having to burn another 4 points on an already point heavy ship. I personally would rather take a more defensive setup on my bullet sponge ship. I take Elusiveness + Nien Nunb + Shield upgrade + M Falcon for 54 pts. Thats 4 extra points to put towards another named pilot instead of a red/green squad pilot.

Gonna play in an upcoming tournament with the following rules.
Was thinking of using the following: Garven Dreis - R2 astromech 27 Dutch Vander 23 Red Squad X wing 23 Green Squad A wing - Deadeye, Assault missles 25 Outter rim smuggler 27 Wedge - R2D2 33 Chewy - cluster missiles - nien numb - gunner 52 Rookie X wing 21 Green squad A wing 19 Han Solo - Push the limit - gunner - MF 55 Biggs R2 astromech 26 Rookie Xwing 21 Gold squad Y wing - ion cannon 23 Any thoughts on the lists? The no duplicates rule is kinda throwing me im not used to that rule so Im trying to spread out the heavy hitters.

Do any of you Imperial players with multiple Tie expansions want to offload one of your howlrunner/backstabber/other guy card doubles. I have enough Ties through core sets and would rather toss someone here a couple bucks for their extras than buy another tie i dont need.

Heres the movement dials for wave 3 confirmed by people at GenCon  Generic HWK cost 16, shuttle 21, both at PS 2 Edit: New card - Flight Instructor-”when defending, you may reroll 1 of your (eye) results. If the attacker's pilot skill value is 2 or lower, you may reroll 1 of your blank results instead. banned from Starbucks fucked around with this message at 20:13 on Aug 15, 2013 |

It depends on who you're playing with. Just playing with friends I'd say minimum 1 of each expansion/ship just for variety so you dont get bored flying the same squad every game and print out proxies for whatever cards you dont have. If you plan on playing in local tournaments you're gonna need the actual cards instead of printouts and most likely want multiple x-wings/interceptors/tie fighters.

Randarkman posted:What's the best ting the rebels could field against Interceptors? Wedge with protons can reliably one-shot most imperial ships, and with say R2-D2 you could keep him alive under heavy fire, however that's very expensive and you run the risk of the Empire simply overhwelming your small number of ships, and protons being one-shot make them kind of a wildcard thing. A Y-wing with an ion cannon so far seems a much cheaper solution, immobilize it and then use something to finish it off at point blank. Best thing against Interceptors is the Falcon. 360 degree firing arc neutralizes their mobility pretty hard. Luke + Wedge both with push the limit-Engine upgrade-R2 is a strong match up too.

TheKingslayer posted:Has anyone had any luck with small elite squads for Imperials? I was thinking something like this. Turr cant take both expose and push the limit. Howlrunner with only two range 1 ships isn't very effective. I would prob dump the sabers and take Soontir Fel with stealth and push the limit. With small imperial squads you're gonna wanna shoot first since TIEs are so fragile. This squad gives you two ships at PS 9 and two at 7 Mauler Mithel - Swarm tactics Soontir Fel - Push the limit - stealth Turr Phenir - Veteran Instincts - stealth Alpha Interceptor Soontir and Turr go off and do their thing and Mauler flys with the Alpha and try to flank someone at range 1 for 4 attack dice each. I've also had success with Turr Phenir - Veteran Instincts - stealth Soontir Fel - Push the limit - stealth Mauler mithel - Veteran insticts - stealth Obsidian TIE - stealth 4 hard to hit ships with 3 of them sitting at PS 9 means you will pretty much always get the first shot off. banned from Starbucks fucked around with this message at 18:58 on Sep 6, 2013 |

Expose on Wedge can work if you run him with Biggs. Expose on imperials doesn't really work that well.

Kilazar posted:*edit* So quick "sequence" question. Say luke has one hull left, no shields, R2D2 equiped, and executes a green move into an asteroid. When does the R2 shield occur? Before the damage roll or after the damage roll? We 50/50'ed it and the coin ended up with the shield applying before rolling the damage die. Which was good cause it caused a crit that was then eaten by the shield. If its an asteroid, yes you get the shield first then roll for damage. If its a proximity mine you take the damage from the mine/bomb first then get the shield.

Push the Limit, Stealth, Engine upgrade, Gunner, Shield upgrade...theres a lot of cards that are very likely to be run multiple times in a single tournament list that only come in one specific ship pack.

What the card is trying to say is if someone rolls a hit and crit with autoblaster and you have an evade token, you may ignore the original rule that says "you must cancel hits before crits" and use the evade token to cancel the crit.

Couple things I caught. 1) Arvel Crynyd doesn't get an Elite Pilot Talent 2) Garven doesn't get an Elite Pilot Talent either 3) Wedge is listed as having a modification but none of the other X-wings do. All Xwing ships can take ship mods 4) Howlrunner is listed as having a modification but none of the other Ties do. All Tie ships can take ship mods Rest looks ok.

Kilazar posted:If your movement template crosses two different asteroids, OR your movement template crosses one asteroid, AND you land on a different asteroid, will that be 2 damage rolls? Or is it just one overall abstract damage roll? That would have to be some really terrible flying though I've never seen someone hit two in a single turn.
