I took my x wing round to a friend's house last night for a demo game. I made the mistake of starting with a 100 pts game and it wasn't very satisfying as he just got lost and it made it really tricky for him to control. So we stopped after a round of shooting and started again. I gave him a couple of academy TIEs and I took a rookie with the target lock droid. It was a great game to show him the basics, but I was surprised how much fun I had. It made a nice fun 20 minute game.
So, I was thinking this might be a great new way of playing quick pickup games over a lunch break with the school club I run or at a warhammer tournament. But wanted to find the right points level to make it work and still be quick without losing the list building challenge and make a number of different builds possible. So I'm thinking at 30 points you can maybe get a single big ship, an elite small ship or a couple of ties with some upgrades.
Do you think this might make for some fast, furious fun?
Cheerio,
Ben
