largest attack dice combo to date

By Torresse, in X-Wing

So with the latest update, once we have the aces, we can do some serious rack ups

So Im thinking Base of 2 attack dice for Proton missile plus 3 evades = 5 dice, +1 for opportunist +1 for expose + 1 for Jan = 8 dice!

cheapest Awing named Pilot with EPT is 24. Add a test pilot, Opportunist, and Expose for 8 points, and 3 points for the Proton missile. 35 points

Jan Ors for an additional 25 points

Now for 70 points, we can now have a chance to 1 shot a lamda shuttle.

I know Ill be running this combo in an epic game just for fun... and the fact I get to use an Expose makes me happy.

Now if we could get this missile on a tie fighter we could have some fun with Mauler Mithil

Edit!
Ignore this post, Expose is only Primary wepon 7 dice is still the max, maybe next time poor expose :(

Expose is primary weapon only, and it would reduce the agility of your ship anyways, costing you a die with Proton rockets. This has already been pointed out a few times on the forum.

ninjaed edited but thanks for pointing that out

Well, that may not be equal to 8 attack dice, but you can combine Proton Rockets/Jan/Opportunist combo with Outmanouver... then just hope fore some nice crits when firing at that poor Lambda/YT-1300 :D

So the consensus is that the "up to three additional dice" on the Proton Rockets refers only to the Agility modifier, and not to ships adding dice in some other way (like Jan Ors)? Just checking - I could see it either way.

I enjoy rolling 6 dice Advanced Torpedoes shots from Wedge with Opportunist and a Focus action.

I thought the card says maximum of three extra dice.

Highest is still 7.5

Wedge (0.5) + adv torps (5) + Opportunist (1) + Jan Ors (1)

Also 35+25 is 60, not 70. Just so you know.

a max of 3 extra dice for the rocket itself, but you can boost it with other upgrades.

I think 7 will be the lucky number
