Great moments in X-wing

By Hawkstrike, in X-Wing

... when Vader's Doomshuttle uses its last two hull points to deliver the killing crit to Palpatine's shuttle. "There is still good in him."

... when Moff JJ pitches Vader out the Decimator's airlock. "The Emperor's coming here? Better make room."

...when Wedge guns down Soontir Fel. "Touch *my* sister will you!"

...when a Decimator hits three obstacles in a single turn. "Asteroids do not concern me."

...when anyone, ever, uses proton torpedoes, "Negative. Negative. It didn't go in. It just impacted on the surface."

... when Porkins pulls a 'stressless' k-turn, yelling "I can hold it ..." and losing his last hull ... "No, I'm alright! Aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhh!!!!!!!"

...When you use Lando crew to roll 2 blanks and get no tokens "This deal's getting worse all the time!"

When Torkil drops Han to 0 and shoots him first with Greedo Crew. "Stupid Special Editions..."

When Paul Heaver reveals a 4-straight with Han at the worlds final and just barely avoids the asteroid: "never tell me the odds."

When Vader barrel rolls into range 1 behind a x-wing and takes a target lock - "I have you now!!!"

When your last ship is Turr Phennir with one hull remaining and you are firing at close range on a their last ship which is a Capt. Oicunn with 4 hull remaining and you roll hit, hit, hit, crit for the win... "The Force is strong with this one".

Anytime I drop a proximity mine on a ship....

Killing Fat Han with a proximity mine: "never tell me the" *boom*

Killing echo with Torkil mux's main gun.

When Chewie, with 1 hull remaining, successfully evades (while still destroying/hurting enemy ships, mind you) for the last three turns of the last game of a tournament, for the win.

Aaaaaaurgh! Arf! Arf! Arf! (Laugh it up fuzzball!)

When Vader has 1 hull and uses Outmanuever and ProRockets to rolls hit, hit, hit, crit, crit... on a Fat HAN with 1 Shield and 5 Hull and the crit is a direct hit. "I find your lack of Faith Disturbing"

When Chewie Blocks the Tantive IV with Leia on board. " Will someone please get this Walking carpet out of my way"

Still winning with Dash58 (HLC, PTL, Kyle, Engine, Outrider) *after* I lost the HLC due to Munitions Failure critical damage card, against a still pretty beefy Oicunn (without engine if memory serves, but that's almost moot) AND an obsidian (can't remember if it was damaged or not).

Getting my only tied game (out of now around 610 games total) ever with N'dru equipped with Dead Man's switch, I think he was fighting off vader, out of all pilots.

"we're *both* going to hell!"

Firing a Ion Turret versus a Royal Guard Tie Interceptor, 3 times in a row, in a high density asteroid field.

Where is your emperor now???

Ohhhh...your hull is reinforced... Useless... Hit, hit...

Every time I use imperial hired Boba's ability ... which ... happened once in the 2 games I went with him.

Unscratched A-Wing vs Dagger-B which is down to 1 hull, A-Wing swings in (instead of just rushing by), ending in range 1 to B-Wing, ready to deliver killing blow - and gets OSKed (rolling all blanks vs 4 hits) :-D

I was the A-Wing player :-)

When you're playing X-Wing with your buddies and talking about women .. and then your sister kisses you.

dude no. don't luke+leia this up

Flying a Syck+Mangler around the field, used it to toast two TIEs, then it gets in range of a Phantom. BOOM! Two hits, two crits. Both were Direct Hit. Nothing but space dust.

Not to burst your epic play, but two hits and two crits is actually impossible. The Mangler can only ever roll 3 dice.

For an actual entry: final round in a Store Championship, my two IGs get matched up against Double Phantom + Academy. I expect the hardest game of my life trying to hunt the Phantoms down; instead the Academy gets sniped at R3 on the first round, then Whisper misses all of her evades twice and burns the next round, and then Echo makes 1 evade out of 8 and dies the following round. Total game length: 11 minutes.

Landing Oicunn on Jake, for the fourth time in that match. "that wasn't a laser blast, we hit something."
