So I picked up the Rebel conversion kit since the 2.0 release spurned new interest locally. Kind of bummed that T-70s aren't Rebel. I didn't realize since I hadn't been following the updates. I'm going to assume that Resistance is a completely separate faction?

So to get a 2.0 damage deck I have to get the core set?

Slandible posted:I think there are special release ones at events, but ya I basically had to buy a core just to get those drat cards. Haven't touched anything else in it. Well, poo poo. I don't need another X-wing to add to the 5 I have, and I certainly don't need 2 TIEs that I'll never use. And I certainly don't need all the cardboard.

I'm thinking this as a first list to try out 2.0 with. Probably not the best, but my locale isn't exactly cutthroat. The Afterburners are mostly there as points fill. Not sure how much I'll actually end up utilizing them. Luke Skywalker (62) Supernatural Reflexes (12) R4 Astromech (2) Afterburners (8) Servomotor S-Foils (0) Wedge Antilles (52) Outmaneuver (6) R4 Astromech (2) Servomotor S-Foils (0) "Dutch" Vander (42) Expert Handling (2) Proton Torpedoes (9) R4 Astromech (2) Total: 199

Well, I don't play X-wing a whole lot anymore and I have some acrylic tokens from 1.0 that look nice... But the burger tokens look too drat nice, and a league is kicking up on Thursday at the FLGS. Ordered.

Since they're basically a beefed up sticker I think you could just put them on square washers. There would be metal overhang, but you'd still get the circle/square effect.

Played my first few games of 2.0. So far it feels way better than end of 1.0 did. I ran this and won both my games. X wings are so much fun now.

The person that makes Burger Tokens is a Goon, right? If so, just wanted to let them know of a typo on their packaging. The package I got says it comes with 5 Force tokens but the web page says it comes with 3. Not like I need extra, just thought they may want to know.

I'd love to hit up a System Open or something just to experience a big X-wing event. But I'm in South Dakota so the chances of one being reasonably close is pretty much out of the question.

The Gate posted:I mean, depends on where you are and what you consider reasonable. Denver is possibly under 8 hours depending where you live in SD. We're driving up 8 hours on Thursday night to get to PAX from NC, so..... I'm on the eastern side of the state so it's about 8 hours just to get to the western border. I'll have to keep an eye out for stuff in the Twin Cities, I think it'll be my best bet.

Finster Dexter posted:If you're looking to road trip to some of these things, post in the SF Star Wars facebook group. When I was going to stuff regularly, I typically hit Fargo, Minneapolis and Omaha regionals. They're all about 3.5-4 hrs away. I've been in that group for a while now. X-wing kind of died locally for a while but 2.0 has created a new interest and it's slowly pickup up steam again.

I just played my first game with Luke and 3x Blue Squadrom Escorts. It's drat good. I was up against Deathrain, Vader, and Soontir. First shooting turn brought Deathrain to 2 hp left. Next turn Luke finished off Deathrain and Soontir ended up at range 1 and 2 of two X-wings and just evaporated. Next few turns were blocking Vader with low PS pilots while Luke tore him apart.

ConfusedUs posted:Outmaneuver is a trap on wedge. I think I like that idea. Though my first trial game with Outmaneuver Wedge he got the drop on a cloaked Whisper and one shot him(her?). R4s have always been a "I have spare points, gently caress it, why not?" Since they only help on the 2 hard turns.

hoiyes posted:gently caress aces, check this poo poo out: I ran this tonight because it seemed fun. It is. First game was against a Poe, L'ulo L'ampar, Bomber list. I shredded the bomber in the joust and just had to cleanup the other two. Second game was against a First order TIE aces sort of list (3 ships). He didn't fly the best, and I flew in formation. Pretty much vaporized a TIE every time I got my sights on it. In other news. What's the policy on using Rebel Y-wing dials in a scum list? I just used Rebel dials tonight because it was crazy casual, but I'm not sure if it matters in a tourney situation.

So is there any reason why the Star Wing is being sought after so much right now? Last time I saw ship prices this inflated was the K-wing during the TLT craze. I dont even see the Star Wing in many lists people post.

The Naboo Starfighter looks cool and all, but I have a hard time getting excited about a 2 attack, 2 agility ship. I currently keep trying to make Rebel A-wings work and it just feels like I'm trying to polish a turd.

So is there any way to load out the Kihraxz to make it playable? Talonbane's ability is great but the everything else about the ship isn't anything to write home about. I've been trying and nothing really seems to be worth it. I also have no idea why it has 3 mod slots and what to do with them.

Engine upgrade would actually be thematic in that case since it shows a K fighter in the art.

I love flying aces, so I'm fighting the temptation to buy into Resistance even though I have a pile of new ships showing up in a few days. And then if I do decide to buy into it I still have 4 T70s from 1.0, so I have to decide on buying a conversion kit or just 3 T70 blisters and an A-wing blister.

The Gate posted:Ooof, that Delta 7B config cost. 18 points on Anakin, down to 15 on the generic I3 Jedi Knight. Looks like it's basically 12 + initiative. Makes sense though, it basically turns the ship into an X-wing with a dial like an A-wing.

Anakin with SNR + D-7B is 110. That's a lot of points for a 6 HP ship with only 2 agility.

I'm rusty on timings and what not, so I have a question. Example: Anakin with Afterburners executes a K-turn, then uses afterburners. Can he use his ability to take off the stress and still get his normal action?
