The Current Meta: The case for Fel's Wrath

By hothie, in X-Wing

Just imagine if you had more PTL going around with Yorr. BTW, I had to look up his ability as it's been a while!

How did Mauler Mithel do? Him with VI could've been really interesting, espeically late game. I love regular Tie Fighters.

Yorr with Fleet Officer and advanced sensors, I didn't need ptl. My ties were getting double actions without the stress. And yorr was more free to take stress from kturns or tacticians, r3a2, etc. As long as I didn't run into myself, the squad worked beautifully.

Mauler was my only ship killed in game 2, but I traded him for Biggs, so I'll take that trade. He was generally really good, getting the shots and occasionally really pounding someone. For 18 points, I elected for PS9 mauler over howl, which was I think a good call.

There is Decoy, but Fel can't take an EPT and who pilot with lower PS has an EPT that would make it worth it? Black Squadie only drops it one pt.

What an amazing thread! I love how you took not 1, but 2 pilots out of the dustbin with this list!! And made fleet officer seem like a great choice!

I don't understand all of the negative feedback. Fel's Wrath, in this list, is a great fit, and can work quite well. If you want to continue flying your RGP with PtL and a dial with only 7 moves on it, go ahead.

Will FW suddenly start tearing up the tournament scene? No. But he does add some targeting synergy into your list because no Fat turret wants to shoot at a ship with AT and a focus that will get to shoot back at them regardless of how much damage they do. The RGP still has his place with Fel and Carnor in 3 aces lists.

What I like about Kir Kanos is that he can do his Evade and the Fleet Officer gives him a focus. He's really hard to hit. If no one shoots at him, he gets to convert the evade into an extra die, but also has the Focus to adjust it.

Check Kanos again, he straight up adds a hit. He hits hard with a focus!

For casual play I'd pimp Fel's Wrath with house rules.

I mean he actually has to die to trigger his effect, whatever pimp his ability with.

So it should be spectacular.

Apart from the possible fix in my sig, which i mean for real and is addressed to FFG mainly,

for house rules I'd even use this:

If Fel's Wrath is destroyed, immediately fly a 5 straight. The first ship that is hit by FW, is hit like it has been hit by a Proxy Mine. Look, fireworks! ^^
