How to lose friends and win enemies

By Popn618, in X-Wing

I'm thinking of running this at my next "soon to be u-friendly" friendly game:

The idea is to keep as close a formation as possible.

Biggs gets 2 focus, 1 evade, and an extra green dice every turn, and gets an extra shielded hit point- (though maybe changing this for stealth device and dtf on airen)

Biggs Darklighter — X-Wing 25

R2-F2 3

Shield Upgrade 4

Kyle Katarn — HWK-290 21

Jan Ors 2

Airen Cracken — Z-95 Headhunter 19

Garven Dreis — X-Wing 26

Go for stealth and dtf. hilarious.

That's money.

Go for stealth and dtf.

Do so.

IMHO the list lacks firepower.

It does need a name and I don't think super Biggs cuts its. I'm thinking "Biggs, Lord protector"

What about "Biggs' Birthday Party", since everyone's giving him presents?

Put experimental interface on Biggs and he gets even better.

And Jan has a gift receipt so she can exCHANGE it! AH? ah? ahhhh?...Heard it, I'll leave now

Assault Missiles and Ruthlessness.

Assault Missiles and Ruthlessness.

Both which need to actually hit to have an effect.

Any PS9+ opponent though will shoot before you get your second action (3rd token) and 4th token. So then they'd be shooting against (presumably) a 2 agility ship with focus + evade. And there are lots of PS9+ ships out there (stupid phantoms).

I think it's a cool idea, but it'll fall flat on the actual game table.

Kyle is going to a be a non-factor as far as shooting is concerned, and Airen isn't too scary either. So you have 2 ships that can do some damage, Biggs and Garven. Biggs will be hard to get rid of, but not so hard he is worth taking. Unlike say, Biggs and Wedge, you aren't protecting anything worth protecting with Biggs here.

While funny, when i see the firepower i can't help myself and think of this.

I want to try Biggs behind Tactical Jammer Han. That should be interesting and frustrate the heck out of your opponents as they have to shoot at Biggs who is obstructed by a Fat Falcon.

Only change I'd consider is just drop the shield on Biggs for some turret on Kyle.

Otherwise, super defense Biggs sounds like an awesome concept, and this list has everything you need to keep him alive.

As for the name, how about, "Ooo he took that square in the Biggs!"
