While waiting that last player needed to play a two on two...

2' x 2' game area. 40 pts per side, no large ships, you can only field a maximun of 2 ships. A funny 10-20 minutes game. I love this !!! We usually play large scenarios, and quite often this little battle is very, very entertaining.

My favourite, PS4 tie interceptor, Stealth Device, Outmaneuver plus a Obsidian Tie

40 points seems very low? Have you tried 50 or 75?

Is 40 the best number you have found or just the number you picked?

I plan to start with 40 I just wanted to know if you tried other points as well

What I'm wondering. Is this a format you play regularly or did you guys just toss it together while you were waiting this one time?

If it is something that you play regularly, does anyone ever bring just a single ship? 40 points is enough to tool up some of the more expensive fighters, more so than in 35 point furballs. I'm curious how many people would take the option of 1 elite, decked out pilot over 2 generics with minimal upgrades, and how they fair.

A friend introduced me to 60-point battles on a 2/3 sized field. large asteroid in the middle, one smaller at each corner (rang 1 from the sides) to total asteroids at five. Creates a good balance and feels like a knife fight. Also a nice template to test combos in a short testing-match

The idea is quite simple. We usually play x wing 2 on 2. One guy allways arrives 5-10 minutes before. The last one 5-10 minutes late. Guess who is married with children?

So after doing some base maths, very basic, I simply said. "eh man !!! What if we wait while playing x wing? 40 pts is perhaps the bare minimun to field a two ship squadrom. The minimun recomended game area is 2' x 2'. So build a list in the toilet, my dear friend !!!

And it works !!! The idea is very simple. Field the smallest number of pts and the smallest play area to fight a battle no more than 15 minutes long. Sometimes 5 minutes if you roll al blanks in the first round of combat.

30 pts is too small, and 50 is perhaps better but the idea is to keep it simple and fast.

90% of time I play with a basic tie plus an interceptor. My friend allways chose a PS

Sorry, mobile device. My friend flies with a Z 95 naked plus a custom X or B. It works. 4 asteroids

Sounds like big fun.

Thanks for sharing the idea.

I the rule book even mentions using different amounts of build points

Prepare to be Brathed.

It is veeeery simple. It is quite similar to the basic scenario #1. But you can choose your ships, not x wing vs 2 ties . The 40 pts range is quite flexible to select either a superb model or a medium plus a low cost tandem.

As a sidenote when facing a Z 95 plus X I win 75% of games. When confronted to a Z 95 plus B I win 40%. But my"enemy" loves x wings, fortunately. And I love Bombers. We know we are lambs in a world full of wolves.
