what do you think

26 points on that Rebel Op, but he'll be beefy while his Moldy Crow tank is full.

R4-D6 is wasted points (well, wasted point) on Biggs, though. The odds of it triggering are astronomical, and you then stress Biggs to prevent 1 damage. Woo!


Seriously, though. Odds of rolling 3 Hits (NOT crits) on 3 dice are (3/8)^3. With Focus or Target Lock, that switches to (5/8)^3. Odds of Biggs rolling 0 evade on 2 dice is (5/8)^2, or if focused, (3/8)^2.
You would then have to multiply these together for a full result.

So, assuming the foe has performed an offensive action, and Biggs has already spent his focus, also known as the best odds of this occuring, you have (5/8)^3 x (5/8)^2 = (5/8)^5 = 3125/32768 = approximately 9.5% of the time, in the best case scenario.

So, slightly less than a 1/10 chance in the best-case scenario, resulting in Biggs picking up a Stress and dodging 1 damage.

I agree with your math however when ever i play agentist BH they always roll 3 attack i allways roll 0 evade :wacko:

I didnt say it was also a counter for HLC. but mostly i had 1 point and wanted to give it a try ill let you know if it made a diffrence

Trade Biggs for a Y wing and ion turret, embrace the omni-directional goodness.

I had a Y with Hobbie then changed it for a HWK and Biggs every one would shoot my Y down first so i wanted something 360 fire with more damage then Ion and some help keeping my ships alive I know there is math that would tell me this isnt right but i have also seen Fel last 8 rounds of fire with only 1 hull left

Math and dice don't always see eye to eye :P

Jan and Han also came 4th at my local store champs that was a suprise

Fair enough. Find better green dice: yours are apparently cursed.

Well it worked destroyed 2 rookies 1 blue and Etahn A'baht with sensor jammer

R4D6 was the best 1 point I spent it kept Biggs alive for a second round of combat

could not believe I won might use R4D6 agian if I have 1 point to spare

Yes my green dice are cursed played another game with a different list 7 turns of combat 9 evades I rolled for the game had 2 X 1 Y 1 B
