Went to my first open game night at the local game store. I had only played a handful of games before sitting down to play at the store.

Opponent brought to the furball just 3 upgraded XWings. Extra hull upgrades on each. Unsure which pilots he has but, they were unique/named, not generic.

I brought the following. Each grouped into two seperate squads...

1)

-Storm Squadron T/A

-Backstabber T/F

2)

-Howlrunner T/F

-Dark Curse T/F

-Black Squadran T/F

-Academy Pilot T/F

I only lost one ship, Howlrunner. He was reduced to 1 hull point on his last XWing and conceded the game.

My Squad of the lone TA and TF didn't come into play until the last round, as they took the long way around the asteroids and were to corner his XWings. The regular Tie Fighter squad held their own easily and I rolled very well.. All the while dodging the few hits he made on his rolls. Aside from some good rolls, my guys manuvered well also.

Can't wait to play again now...
