Has anyone else One Shotted an X-Wing

By jkokura, in X-Wing

No joke, couple nights ago, in the first round of shooting, I have a Phantom in range one on the flank of Wedge. 5 hits using Focus, Wedge rolls a complete blank. One shotted Wedge right off the table.

Anyone else got a good one shot X-wing to gloat about?

I have done it with a Range 1 Soontir. Guessing many others have as well.

My wedge got one shotted against my buddies shuttle. 4 hits from HLC zero evades and Vader flipped a direct hit.

I one shotted Etahn Ebat. Range one out Fett's rear arc. 3 hits and a crit, no modification. He rolls all blanks. The crit is a direct hit. I felt bad.

I had Tarn one shotted by a Phantom and that was after i got my opponent to re-roll all of his dice, he rolled a hit,hit, crit,crit,crit, to add insult to injury one of the Crits was a direct hit!

I one-shotted a hwk once. The shot would have done the same to an x-wing.

I've one shorted xwings with just at TIE...

Mauler Mithel at range 1 with Expose.

X-Wings don't get a lot of green dice, so the trick isn't getting them to roll bad, it's getting 5+ hits in the first place.

I popped an undamaged etahn with a direct hit proton bomb last week. That was nice.

I was doing Rebels vs. Rebels, and it wasn't quite a one-shot, but one of my supporting took one of Wedge's shields, then Tycho let off missile in Wedge's face and destroyed him in the first combat round of a match.

Almost lost my wedge to a one shot from another wedge. Scraped by with 1 Hull and made the false wedge pay oh so dearly...

Sure have. Concussion missile, fueled by some Jonus shenanigans. I know it's only 4 dice, but one roll was a crit, and they flipped over a Direct Hit.

Gamma squadron making that money!

Royal Guard Squint bagged a Rookie a few weeks back with one pull.

Even better I had a Scimitar one shot a Stealthed Tycho through an asteroid with a Concussion Missile. Poor guy rolled all blanks. Best four points I've spent.

Ibtisam + Opportunist + HLC with a focus token at Wedge; I rerolled my only blank die into a crit.

Farlander + Opportunist + HLC + target lock + Jan. 2 crits 4 hits, he rolled 1 evade and still died.

If you can roll # of attack dice = hull + shields you can one shot it.

So there are way to one shot a Tie Bomber or Defender.

Almost OHKO'd a firespray with a lucky Adv Torp. Someone knocked off a couple shields, then the torp threw in two Direct Hits to finish it.

If you can roll # of attack dice = hull + shields you can one shot it.

So there are way to one shot a Tie Bomber or Defender.

Technically, you can do it with less. I mean, you could launch the 7-dice attack and pull nothing but Direct Hit crits. It's incredibly unlikely, but remotely possible.

Someday, someone will roll six dice against an Agressor, roll four hits and two Direct Hits, and the IG88 player will roll all blanks.

Last tournament I one-shotted Wedge with Whisper (range one, rolled two hits and three crits). I still lost that game (rest of his list was an A-wing and Han).

I one-shotted, no overkilled, Luke + R2D2 with Defender primary weapons at R1 rolling 2xhit 2xcrit, and both crits were double damage against blanks.

My buddy gave up that match after this. Sure it was magical shot.

Playing Jonus + 2 HLC defenders, got a crit by one reroll and 3 hits. He missed his defense rolls and flipped 2 damage crit.

And playing wedge with oppotunist, getting into range 1 of an xwing i already target locked the past turn, so this one i had focus + TL. He missed his 1 dice roll, and exploded.

I just lost Wes on turn 2 today to Carnor Jax at range 1 with a focus, rolled 3 hits and a crit, which was a direct hit.

First round of shooting and I lost 31 pts (had an astromech too).

My Biggs got one shotted at one of the imdaar events by someone's Krassis + HLC at range 3. Dude dropped 3 hits and a focus, used his reroll and got a crit. I blanked, and drew a Direct Hit. Cost me the cut to top 4, and it was the guys third game or something. It was the beginning of a month long bad streak, which has now passed fortunately.

I've actually done it a few times.

Rexler Brath with his ability (a flipped direct hit from an HLC on Wedge)

Vader with Concussion Missiles (also against Wedge)

Range 1 Soontir Fel, target lock and focus, with a direct hit and a minor explosion

Whisper with 4 hits 1 crit, one hit evaded, and the crit was Direct Hit.

Major Rhymer with PtL to TL and Focus with APLs at range 2.

So far I one-shotted 3 X-Wings, always with Advanced Proton Torpedo. The other times I used APT the target X-Wing crawled away with 1 HP.

APT is a very nasty weapon (I don't use it much nowadays, I used to equip my Firesprays with it, but currently I don't use FS much).
