Epic casual team idea

By Viceroy Bolda, in X-Wing

“I Have You Now”

Play Format

Admirals: 300 points, includes epic points on huge battle map.

Commanders: 120 points, includes epic points on standard battle maps.

Each Commander fields 120 points and plays a 1:1 battle. Each 1:1 play continues until one of the two Commanders has one remaining small or large ship. At that point, both Commanders move their surviving squads to the huge battle map.

Huge battle map: Each faction fields 300 team points at the outset. These points may be distributed among multiple players (co-admirals). Huge ships become obstacles when destroyed. Commanders enter play with decimated squads at random. Game continues until one side is eliminated.

Special Rules:

Unique characters cannot be used in multiple lists.

Both teams may use Huge ships

Because Imperials do not have “Huge ship only” cards, no uniques may be used on any huge ship.

....Thoughts?

I like it. The limitations are fine too.

I assume you mean to have this commander and huge battle going on simultaneously?

We have thought about doing this... 4 person game where there are 2 games, the winner of one flys over to help their teammate...

Another idea would be for BOTH commanders be allowed to bring their full 120 pt squad to the huge match but the winner gets to remove one ship from his opponents 120 reinforcement squad. Or maybe just removal of one upgrade card based on balance play testing.

The only problem I see, is I would guess who ever wins the commander match will be the team that wins...

Dandirk - Yes, the battles would all start about the same time.

I like your idea of bringing the full squad to the Huge table. That would be great for a full day of gaming. It could quickly become a 700+ point game.
