Spring Kit (Brief) Bat Rep

By Deltmi, in X-Wing Battle Reports

I won a very small Spring Kit tourney (3-0, 4 ppl including myself) using the following list:

Boba Fett (51 pts)

- VI

- Tactician

- Autoblaster

- Engine Upgrade

IG88B (49 pts)

- VI

- HLC

- Autothrusters

- Adv. Sensor

Here were the 3 lists I played against in order (all 2 ship builds)

Imperial

1. Boba: VI, Mangler, Tactician, EU

Kath: Predator, Mangler, Gunner

(100-0)

Scum

2. IG88B: PTL, Mangler, Adv. Sensors, Autothrusters, Title

IG88C: PTL, HLC, Adv Sensors, Autothrusters, Inert. Damp, Title

(52-51)

Scum

3. Emon: Prox Mine, Seismic, EU, Title

Kath: VI, Mangler, K4 droid, Homing Missiles, EU

(100-49)

Lessons learned:

1. I need to remember to use Boba's ability. I used Autoblaster a few times, but always forgot to use his ability! My first time using Scum Boba so now I'll remember.

2. I like HLC over Mangler on IG88B. Yes, I don't get to use his ability at Range 1, but I was almost never in Range 1 with IG.

3. Autoblaster on Boba is awesome! Being able to move last, boost to Range 1, and give unavoidable damage is a scary thing. Although, be prepared to take some damage in return! Again, if I would've remembered his ability I probably would've suffered less damage.

4. This build works well against other 2 ship builds. The only tough match was against the dual IG build. You have to concentrate fire on one before going after the other.

I took 2nd this weekend at a spring tourney, with a list very similar, i went 3-1 and 2nd place out of 21 people, but i ended up with the most overall points destroyed, i took a loss the first round but bounced back with 3 100-0 victories.

My list was

IG-88B

-VI

-FCS

-HLC

-Autothrusters

-Inertial Damp

Kath

-PTL

-EU

-Seismic

-K4 droid

-Inertial Damp

i found that having my IG88b at the ps 8, was very key knowing that there would be other aggressors there.
