its funny how much variety I saw that you didn't. I guess that's the difference between 15th and 1st. I had a blast wrapping my head around all the different opponents.

The day after the tournament, I could not for the life of me remember what my 4th round opponent flew. I had to go to the tournament organizer (S1n) to get his list because I flew against 4 Dash/Corran lists and they were blending together. Once I got the lists, I was ale to reconstruct the battles. Every opponent I faced had a Rebel turret flown by a good player. Every one of them.

I'm going to the Dallas Regional, as it's my home store. The pressure is off, so I'm pondering what new spore of madness to bring.

are there still openings up there? if it ends up being possible, I might sneak up that way for it.

At the Dallas Regional? Yes. They aren't taking Pre-Reg. We don't expect to have over 200 players, which the store can comfortably fit.

You should take dual mando mercs to Madness. It's a blast to fly.

I'm sure. But I'm feeling a bit... HWKish.

Congrats on the Austin win, and good luck showing Emons true power at the Dallas regional.

As a committed reader of your articles I'm very pleased to hear you've won one of the big events.

Congratulations and please keep up the great work

Turrets: The Game

Gratz on the win, but all those YT's made my ***** soft.

Turrets: The Game

Gratz on the win, but all those YT's made my XXXXX soft.

There are so many better phrases you could have used.

Movement based:

Take the wind out of my sails.

Dash my hopes into the rocks.

Emotion based:

Make me sad.

My soul screams out in impotent anger only for it to be replaced with naught but the void of anguished resignation. Lo, twas turrets that brought me low.

Crude Euphemism:

Saps the very essence of my core.

Wilts the very root of my being.

These are but a sample of the richness of our language that do not require the use of vulgarity.

Have you flown against any true panic attack lists? I was just curious how that match up is for you. I saw your other write up where you beat the 3b 1y but without stressbot.

Not in a tournament setting. It's a good list, but my list is able to control the range of the first round of shooting. The Y-Wing is the primary target and I can easily destroy it on the second combat round before it can double stress. Then, any ship with lots of stress can either be sacrificed for combat damage, or peel off to clear stress while the other burns down B-Wings.

Really happy to hear that your list succeeded once again! After the Store Championship, you were contemplating replacing the Proton Bomb with an Autoblaster on Boba. What made you not change this? Did you try the Autoblaster and found less value in it? Or was the PB simply better in the end due to people's fear of it and then a different style of flying against Boba ("Must not get behind him")

PS: I'm one of those German guys from Worlds - that evening, when 3 Texans and 2 Germans went to have some great burgers!

I gave it a try. While it was better against certain lists, like Soontir, it wasn't as good against many of the lists I took it against between the tournaments. It's totally a viable option though. In the end, I took Proton Bomb not because of the direct effect of dealing faceup damage, but because it distorts the board and forces my opponents to fly differently. I don't feel it is a waste even when I don't drop it because it changed how my opponent had to fly.

And that was a good time meal.

so I got a place to stay up in dallas area. I'll see you guys up there!

That was fun, and we should do it again.

I miss Austin food. At least we have a Chewies up here now.

We really do. I plan on being at Worlds the entire week. I'm gambling on there being side events for X-Wing, though I may play Armada.

I'll be there most of the week, too. I may play IA, or I may just play side events and hang out in Minneapolis.

Nice job! That's a lot of Dash and corran.

You earned it!

Question Sable: what do you think is Boba's best scum buddies besides an IG? Couple Y's?

Question Sable: what do you think is Boba's best scum buddies besides an IG? Couple Y's?

There are several options.

Another Firespray: Kath could really add punch. Best for players who want to have ships the fly the same and who want toolbox ships. Harder to deal with Fat Han if one is lost, but two PS9+ Firesprays is daunting.

4x Z-95s. Few options here, but it gives you a cloud of friends to block and distract.

Torkil and Palob: Like Fett, but want to make him the lowest target priority in your list? Torkil and Palob will do that. Able to shut down basically every ace pilot in the game, these two can WRECK opponents while Fett blasts them with impunity.
