Pimp my Ship

By Kael Hate, in X-Wing

Pimp my Ship

A fun Dogfight scenario. Play at the usual 100pts but see if you can break out a power ship or fun ship by pimping it out with gear it normally couldn't have by default.

Rules.

- 100pt Dogfight

- Ships may use any Upgrade Card.

- You may use any number of Title or Mod Cards

- Ignore the cards restrictions of Faction, Ship, etc.

- The uniqueness rule still remains

- The first Card you are taking but not allowed costs 1pt more the second costs 2pts more and so on. Thus a ship with 4 extra cards taken, that they may not Normally have, costs 10pts more.

- Energy and Small/Large base ships. Small base dials have 1 energy on printed green maneuvers and large base ships have 1 energy on all white printed maneuvers and 2 energy on Green printed maneuvers. Small ships have an energy limit of 1 and large ships have an energy limit of 3.

Example

This is hilarious.

Tycho Celchu - 26

Chardaan Refit - -2

Prototype Veteran - 0

Veteran Instincts - 1

Push the Limit - 3

Advanced Proton Torpedoes - 6+2

Hull Upgrade - 3

Shield Upgrade - 4+3

R5-P9 - 3+4

A 53 point A-wing! PS 10, Attack 2 (but with a potential APT which you can TL and Focus the same round), Hull 3, Shield 3, regenerating shields.

Imperial Entry:

Darth Vader (29)

Royal Guard TIE (0+1)

Engine Upgrade (4)

Shield Upgrade (4+2)

Outrider (5+3)

Autoblaster (5+4)

Heavy Laser Cannon (7+5)

R2 Astromech (1+6)

R2-D2 (4+7)

Daredevil (3)

Lone Wolf (2+8)

Total: 100 points

... I really want to fly this, now...

Edit: Actually, I may be off by one point, if having the Royal Guard TIE title would make having the Shiled Upgrade legal...

This is basically Attack Wing. :P

Chewbacca (42)

-C3PO (3)

-R2D2 (Astromech) (4+1) (5)

-R2 Astromech (1+2) (3)

-Nien Numb (1)

-Falcon Title (1)

-Predator (3)

-Shield Upgrade (4)

-Hull Upgrade (3+3) (6)

-Hull Upgrade (3+4) (7)

-Hull Upgrade (3+5) (8)

-Hull Upgrade (3+6) (9)

-Hull Upgraed (3+7) (10)

99 points

The fattest of Falcons dodges 2 shots per round, re-rolls 1-2 dice (probably only 1 in this format,) and regens shields on any straight or 1-2 speed move, and has 18 hull and 6 shields.

Alternatively, if by uniqueness you also meant one of each upgrade, then:

Chewbacca (42)

-C3PO (3)

-R2D2 (Astromech) (4+1) (5)

-R2 Astromech (1+2) (3)

-Nien Numb (1)

-Falcon Title (1)

-Predator (3)

-Hull Upgrade (3+3) (6)

-Shield Upgrade (4+4) (8)

-Combat Retrofit (10+5) (15)

-Gunner (5+6) (11)

98 points, 16 hull and 7 shields, slightly more offensive version with Gunner

One of those Hull Upgrades is legal, so you're actually at 98

I had a similar thought with Porkins.

Cool some fun ships.

Rule the Galaxy as Father and Son!!!

VT-49 Commander Kenkirk 44

Ruthlessness/Outmaneuver 3

Predator 3+1

Determination 1+2

Lone Wolf 2+3

Luke Skywalker 7

Ysanne Isard 4

C3PO 3+4

Darth Vader 3

Hull Upgrade 3

Dauntless 2

R5 Astromech 1+5

R5-D8 3+6

100 pts

Fly as close to R1 as you can. youll have 4 dice for attack: 1reroll from Predator, 1 reroll from Lone Wolf, if you miss, a focus and a new attack via Luke.

Ruthlessness for multi-ship builds like the 5x Tie + HLC (that one is cool!!!). Outmaneuver is good against Falcons/C3PO.

Vader crit-blast them.

R5 and determination ensure no crits (except via some flip up or Rexler).

For your action, roll focus 5/8 for R5-D8 removing a facedown damage card. This should remove .5 damage each turn.

Dauntless ensures you an action each turn.

On defense, lose the shields fast.

Then at 11+1 hull you get:

1 defense dice from Kenkirk, rerolling with Lone wolf should be .5 evades

C3PO gives 1 evade

Ysanne gives 1 evade.

Total 2.5 evades a turn, off 12+1 hull and 4 shields.

I think the only other thing that fights this is Chewbacca but I think I beat him =).

That or the 5 tie HLC. =D That's just plain effing awesome.

Actually, I take it back. 5 Z + HLC (8) seems to be better than mine.
