Great moments in X-wing

By Hawkstrike, in X-Wing

When Kenkirk barrel rolls off an asteroid in the combat phase to avoid a range 1 double tap from Corran. "Take evasive action."

That time I dropped a prox mine and my opponent rolled 3 crits.... bu-by ship... bahahaha

When guri ends up range one of an aggressor with advanced protons and hits with all five attacks and ig88 flubs its roll winning you the game.

How would Kenkirk do this without cheating?

...when a PTL Royal Guard Soontir w/ AT and SD boost barrel rolls behind an asteroid, shot at by Torkil w/ Primary Weapon on range 3, rolls a hit, then Soontir goes 6 blanks....yeah..

Well, it's still possible if he spends his focus on the attack and then rolls six eyeballs, but post autothrustors the odds have gone from 6% to 0.02%.

I'm sorry. I must missed the part when Kenkirk is allowed to perform actions when sitting on an asteroid.

But I'm pretty you tell me now.

Vader's Tie Advanced delivers the killer blow with a Concussion missile to the Tantive that just happens to have Luke and Leia as crew...

Think of the children!!!

Or in my case:

The first time you take Guri for a spin she gets one shotted by a Phantom due to the ficklegreendice and drawing two direct hit crits on top of the hit that took down the shield. And that's before she lands a hit on anyone....

Oddly enough I haven't put my Star Viper back on the table since then.

A Scum Z-95 swarm with Feedback Array shocks the stuffing out of Han: "They never even asked me any questions."

Does AT stand for autothrusters? If so, Soontir was fine

Yeah if he's at range three he gets to flip one so he wouldn't even lose the stealth device.

I believe that the asteroid makes you skip your ship's perform action step but doesen't affect free actions from, say, Cracken or Isard.

So a ship on an astroid can't shoot - must skip action step - but still is able to perform free actions?

Somehow I never encountered that situation.

I guess you cannot barrel or boost off the astroid if the template would overlap the obstacle. Its not Dash, after all.

It's a rare situation but I did see it once when my opponent barrel rolled a B-Wing off an asteroid after Cracken shot so that it could shoot as well (and fire on an uncloaked Echo that was out of arc before... **** Roark and Cracken with swarm tactics). You're correct about the templates though.

... when my stressed and tokenless Dash, looking at the edge of the board from a single-inch distance, rolls two natural evades avoiding a Ion pulse missile attack that got 2 hits on the 1st game of my regional...

... and when in the last Swiss Round, facing another 3-1 opponent, while being unable to roll a single hit for 3 consecutive turns for the Damaged Sensors crit, gets 5 blanks on his shot on a 2-hull Leebo, being mangled in return and exploding with a nice Direct Hit! crit, dropping me from 12 to 17th place (my opponent who won the game got 5th seed in top 8)..

...that's Karma!

Turning up to game night to the horror that your the THIRD person.

Then coming up with the idea that the other two play as normal but with me just with running a pair of space cows that can't fire but can run interference....

And **** did I interfere Hahaha

N'Dru Suhlak + Lone Wolf + Clutser Missiles + Glitterstims (prox-test) one shots a B-Wing.

"What burly gunship? You mean that cloud of debri to my aft?"

Pretty much everything darthlurker has said.

KTurning Backstabber millimeters behind enemy ship and rolling all crits. Remember it like it was yesterday.

After a long mauling, my only ship on the table was a badly damaged Solo Falcon, pursued by 2 RG Ints well equiped. And my opponent selected the wrong left...and exited the mat. Obviously a mistake, but it was late, so we finished the game...

Playing a small 59 point tournament, I 5k-turned a VI'd Jake A-Wing behind Soontir Fel after he moved. Then I naturally rolled 2 crits and a hit to his 3 blanks. Great day indeed!
