Luke

176/180

He played:

VSD
Motti
X17 Turbo Lasers
Corrupter

*Rhymer
*Bomber
*Tie Advanced
*Tie Advanced
*Tie Intercepter

He was very new to the game we did not play objectives (Hell I don't even know what objectives both of us should have taken ... )

So I think both lists could probably use a bit of tweeking but we really can't play 300 point games just no time, but boy oh boy I LOVE the Space Whale ...while nowhere near as tough as his with Motti he still took a pounding was able to repair some damage, I did make the mistake of being in close range for 2 turns and he managed 2 fireing shots from his forward arc rolled well but I was able to redirect and brace them ... and limp away with 3 damage cards ...

Awings were awesome at tying up the tie bombers / advanced given though newer player he probably wouldn't get caught again but honestly black dice isn't the end of the world at medium range like I thought it would be in a small game (Where he can't field a bucket of tie bombers)

But yeah the wave two ships I really like them ... I probalby would have went with more awings but I only own 4

Sounds great! You could have chosen Superior Positions, Fleet Ambush, and Opening Salvo.

For the Imps, I think Minefields, Advanced Gunnery, and Contested Outpost

Good to see you had fun,

but.....

I thought Wave 1 was balanced for 300pts, and would be a bit off for less than that

its about time .. we dont have time for 300 points so we do 180 and i want to use wave one ships

Tournament wise it is 300 points but outside of that you can choose any point limit really.

I am building my buys with the tho7ght in mind for 1k point games
