Oota Goota

By Englishpete, in X-Wing

So,

I decided to make some stats for the "Oota Goota" and rename her White Star for my own personal freebooter fleet.

As you can see, she has a forward fire arc and a turret option. I wanted to depict her as stripped down for speed and not heavy combat or freight smuggling. White Star runs luxury, small items (including the odd rebel) and has a boost option to represent her souped up engines.

Based on discussions so far, looks like we need a reduction to 33 points and add the System Upgrade to the upgrades bar.

Looks great! But i would say it's a bit overcosted. Compare it to the Firespray which has 1 more agility and a rear firing arc…this costs 3 points more. (for the same PS).

I would think something more like 33 points

Maybe 33pts is a good number. I did some in my head math based on options available etc, but now you raise it, 38 seems high compared to a Firespray and the ORS, but did fall mid way between the ORS and Chewie.

u saw the boost action right ?

The boost action was why I had it at 38.

If I was to run her in my league, (I am going to ask my organizer to allow it) she would have an Ion Cannon, Weapons Engineer and a Gunner.

That would make her 51 points or in the rules of our campaign

I would need to spend 21 VP's to go from the basic A-Wing start ship (17 points) +5 VP's to change ship to be a PS1 in the White Star.

Then I would need 5000 credits to mount the turret, 5000 credits to purchase the Ion turret itself. 5000 credits to hire the gunner and 3000 credits to hire the Weapons Engineer.

so I would need 26 VP's and 13,000 credits to be in a PS1 version

Pilot Skill costs us 1VP per pip in skill

EPT's are costed in VP's per point and must be paid for 3 times in consecutive missions or 5 times in non-consecutive missions before they are acquired permanently.

Yes, but the Firespray also has an Evade action, a Permanent extra evade die, and a rear firing arc. Would you pay 3 more points to lose 3 things and gain 1?

She does have the option for 2 crew, boost, a turret upgrade and a missile slot.

Compared to the firesprays options for Missile, Bomb, Crew and Cannon

Wait wait wait...a Gamorrean named Ham . That's just wrong.

You spotted the "pork" humor huh :-)

Ham is my alter ego in our Campaign. Currently the pilot of a B-Wing, having graduated from an A-Wing.

On the subject of points, I think that 33 is probably correct. I am considering adding the option for system upgrades as well. Gives her a nice unique feel.
