Hey there.

Just had a quick question - does anyone know off hand what the most dice that can be thrown at one time for each dice type is?

With attacks, I can see that at least 6 is possible:

1) Proton Rockets [2] (with at least 3 agility [+3]) + Opportunist [+1] = 6 {EDIT: + Jan Ors (Pilot) [+1] =7}

2) "Whisper"/"Echo" [4] + Range 1 [+1] + Opportunist/Expose [+1] = 6

Is 8 or more possible?

Also, what about defense dice?

Again, I can see that at least 7 is an option, but is there any way of getting higher?

1) Gemmer Sojan [3] + Range 1 of enemy ship [+1] + Range 3 of attacking ship [+1] + Stealth Device [+1] + Shot through Astroid [+1] = 7

2) E-Wing [3] + R2-F2 [+1] + Range 3 of attacking ship [+1] + Stealth Device [+1] + Shot through Astroid [+1] = 7

[EDIT] 3) Tie Phantom [2] + cloaked [+2] + Stealth Device [+1] + Range 3 [+1] + Obstructed [+1] = 7

Thanks,

Jan Ors could give your proton rockets an extra attack dice, so that's 7.

Ah true. Cool, thanks. Quite new to the game so don't have a great handle on what everything does, though the HWK-290 was the first expansion I purchased, so perhaps I should have remembered Jan.

I've edited the OP to include that. Is there any way of hitting 8?

Range 5 shot against a cloaked TIE Phantom from a Corvette... 8 defence dice?

Edit: if we're going down the Epic play route & all scenarios, you'd easily be able to get into double figures...

TIE Phantom (2) cloaked (+2), stealth device (+1), range 3 (+1), obstruction (+1) =7

@Gecko: I hadn't even thought about Epic play, and hadn't looked at either of the Huge ships. Also hadn't thought about scenarios. More reading for me it seems.

@cheese: Heh, forgot that Phantoms cloaked for a moment there...

Phantom + cloak + stealth device + range 3 + obstruction from a huge ship with that obstruction upgrade

2 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 3 = 9

beat that.

TOTALLY AND UTTERLY RIDICULOUS DEFENCE DICE SCENARIO #1:

Cloaked TIE Phantom (4)

With a Stealth Device (5)

Being shot at by a Corellian Corvette's Single Turbolaser (10)

Whose attack is being obstructed by a Rebel Transport with EM Emitter (13)

Can I borrow your dice plz?

I tip my hat to you, sir!

The most dice I have ever thrown was

Keyan Farlander + HLC + Opportunist + Jan Ors

That is 4(HLC) + 1 (Opportunist) + 1 (Jan)

Also since I used TL on my action and basically got a free focus from my stress that was 6 dice + TL + F. And I was able to do it a couple of times before Jan was killed. (actually it is better to let Jan bump someone else attack, but 6 dice was sooooo much fun)

Expose is primary only, so you cant combo with HLC or Prockets.

However its relatively easy to get 7 dice TL F:

Prototype TIE Interceptor or Prototype RGI 3 attack + 1 at range 1 +1 opportunist + 2 special ability = 7

Protoype TIE Phantom 4 attack + 1 at range 1 + 1 opportunist + 2 special ability = 8

And I still rolled all blanks!!!!!!

Technically you can throw as many dice as you can fit in your hands.

Other than that I think all the above posts cover the questio very well.

Man, 13 defence dice. Nice!

Prototype TIE Interceptor or Prototype RGI 3 attack + 1 at range 1 +1 opportunist + 2 special ability = 7

Protoype TIE Phantom 4 attack + 1 at range 1 + 1 opportunist + 2 special ability = 8

Nice. Scenario driven, but 8 I guess is the max you can throw.

Would asteroids or additional Transports add to that? Or is it just a fixed number regardless of the times the shot is obstructed? If they stack, I count 25 with a single set of Asteroids.

Now if you want total dice with multi rolls

Prototype TIE Interceptor or PRGI 3 attacks +1 range 1 +1 opportunist roll 4 dice 2nd attack because of special ability =9

Prototype TIE Phantom 4 attacks +1 range 1 +1 opportunist roll 5 dice 2nd attack because of special ability = 11

Siberan Express Y-Wing BTL-A4 with blaster turret and R2-D6

2 attack +1 range 1 +1 opportunist + 3 blaster turret = 7 could be 8 if you shed stress before firing turret.

Got it!

A-wing (green minimum). Opportunist, Expose, Stealth Device, Proton Rockets, Jan

So 5+1+1+1 equals 8!

"Things you never ask an Attack Wing player unless you want to die."

"Things you never ask an Attack Wing player unless you want to die."

What is the total you can get in attack wing, is it over 9000?

120! Sorry, forgot I wasn't charging with my Orks...

Now if you want total dice with multi rolls

Prototype TIE Interceptor or PRGI 3 attacks +1 range 1 +1 opportunist roll 4 dice 2nd attack because of special ability =9

Prototype TIE Phantom 4 attacks +1 range 1 +1 opportunist roll 5 dice 2nd attack because of special ability = 11

Siberan Express Y-Wing BTL-A4 with blaster turret and R2-D6

2 attack +1 range 1 +1 opportunist + 3 blaster turret = 7 could be 8 if you shed stress before firing turret.

If I add Jan with Siberian Express the total rolled dice will be 8 or 9 if stress can be lifted before blaster turret roll.

Opportunist and jan would be wasted with proton rockets as you are capped at an additional 3 attack dice. I realize what the intent of the card is, but by saying "to a maximum of 3 additional dice" you can't get any more dice than the 3

The maximum 3 additional dice only applies to the Agility value. Any other modifiers can exist beyond that.

Got it!

A-wing (green minimum). Opportunist, Expose, Stealth Device, Proton Rockets, Jan

So 5+1+1+1 equals 8!

As already mentioned, Expose modifies primary attacks. Doesn't work with Protons.
