Things I can't wait to do with Blount...

By Hrathen, in X-Wing

Just got my wave 4 stuff today. I am so excited to try everything, but the one pilot I am most excited to try out is Blount.

Just a few things I can't wait to try with him.

Shoot an Ion Pulse Missile and then just not roll any dice. I it going to hit so it will do exactly 1 damage and two ion tokens no matter what.

Shoot at that Interceptor with a Stealth Device. Well I guess that upgrade is gone.

Show up with him in my list with Assault Missiles, and just watch my opponent fret.

He is going to be fun.

Other things to do with Blount:

Hold hands and take a long walk on the beach.

Play Star Wars Monopoly.

Converse about philosophy.

Go to the movies, but don't try to put your arm around him. He hates that.

Skip rocks at the lake.

Take him for a nice seafood dinner and never call him again.

With Ion Pulse or Assault missiles, he'll be cool. Without them . . . not so much. Gotta make that alpha strike count!

Don't you only lose the stealth device if you have to roll defence dice and fail and then take the hit ?

You're confusing blount with things like asteroids. Asteroids etc are not attacks. Stealth device goes away if you are hit by an attack. Blount's attacks always "hit" even if you evade all the damage.

Hitting a target while suffering from a Blinded Pilot crit.

You say this like a true piece of rebel scum yet you have an Imperial avatar?

*****, when I take him out we're going to do deathsticks and blow spice all night.

While we are on the subject, what would be a good way to keep him useful after he's blown his... missile?

I'm trying to think of useful EPTs, and I guess Wingman can keep him assisting throughout the game.

I was really excited for Blount at the start, but now I think I would just take Cracken for the utility and use his ability to give a Bandit or someone else a TL+F missile shot. So how would you justify him in the long game?

Also is he better with Ion Pulse because it rolls less attack dice? Seems he should get that and a Bandit should get Assault if there's ever that choice.
