Epic 3-way Free For All

By Dreaded Candiru, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Monday a couple guys down at the local store and I are going to run a Rebel vs Imperial vs Scum Epic match. It's kind of defaulted to this because we all want in on it, it's the only chance we'll get to play together, and the other two have their ships concentrated in the Scum and Imperial faction, respectively.

I've got pretty much everything in the rebel arsenal, including the Transport and Tantive, though possibly not the HWK (just ordered it online, dunno if it'll make it). I'm still very inexperienced with the game, but both of them are going to be moving away at the end of the month so this is really our only chance for this.

Needless to say I have no idea what to take for this match. Obviously I want to use at least one of the huge ships (because otherwise why buy them), but I don't know if it's such a good idea to take both when I'll be facing 600 points. I'm not convinced they're actually that great for the cost.

What is the current thought on these guys? How do you like to use them? What do you take them with?

Fat turrets with Engine. B-wings. Warthogs. Just throw all your red dice at their minis. Some A/Z's to block them.

Currently an epic three way means only Rebels get to fire at that sweet sweet range 5. Use it!

EPIC A-WING ESCORT

A-Wings get in close, Torryn Farr removes all defensive tokens, then the A-Wings launch a gazillion 5 dice attacks, blasting the enemy to space dust. Simple!
