Battle of Yavin 1700pt Megabattle - Kublacon

By benblythe, in X-Wing Organized Play

Hello! Just showcasing the mega battle I will be running at Kublacon this year!

We play tested the rules at a FLGS here in Phoenix, and had a blast doing it. I have since made a few tweaks and we are ready for prime time!

"The Death Star is orbiting Yavin Prime, coming into range of Yavin 4, the headquarters of the Rebel Alliance, and the last strong hold for liberty in the Galaxy. Now, a team of 32 brave pilots will assault a battle station as large as a moon, and with the capacity to destroy a planet.

Will you attack against the odds, run the trench, and launch proton torpedoes into a small exhaust port? Or will you defend order in the galaxy and defend the station from terrorism?

We will be recreating the Battle of Yavin, as seen in the climax of Star Wars: A New Hope. With new rules* for Turbo Lasers, Trench Runs, and the timely arrival of a certain smuggler, this battle will be large. We will need several Rebel and Imperial ships, so please bring whatever models you have."

*When I designed the scenario Turbo Lasers didn't exist yet.

Here are some pictures from the last event!

So what we're looking at is 12 hours+ of X-Wing on Saturday? Cool with me.

Pretty much! This will be laid back beer and pretzels x-wing though. BYOB BYOP -- that stuff is expensive at this hotel!
