S'true.
Same reason I intend to get 3 GR75s.
To be fair though, you actually need three GR75s to play the Escape From Hoth campaign...
When you sending me that Nebbie?
It's too late, Joe. You should have paid Mel when you had the chance. Now Disney's put a price his head, so large that every lawyer in America is looking for him. I'm lucky I got one first.
That's true. But I really want to defend or wipe out a Rebel convoy consisting of a CR90, 3 tunafish and a bunch of X-wings.
The CR-90 has a further reach which may give it some advantage against the raider although when it comes to firepower the raider wins.
However it is not really the CR-90 vs the Raider (although that would be a cool cinematic scenario) is the CR-90/Raider/GR-75/Gozanti vs 150-300 points of standard ships that is the big obstacle to the CR-90. I already mention before that huge ships have a huge disadvantage of not being able to use focus results in an established gameplay mechanic where all standard ships can use the focus action and tokens. Now the CR-90 comes with Hans<crew> which allows target locks to be used as focus and the Gozanti Cruiser comes with Agent Kalluses which has a similar effect. Still the lack of wholesale change focus results to hits/evades is what is hurting huge ships in today's epic format.
I talked about this a lot in a whole nother thread and just got called a failure lol.
Anyway, it should be a fun epic vs epic match imo
versus fighters, im betting on fighters if the player doesnt get them all rammed.
We all talked about it a whole lot in other threads. Just because it was mentioned in a past thread doesn't mean it wont keep turning up cough*turrets*cough

Yeah wuz kinda GRR... cause I am not in love with shapeways. But now that they have improved the stuff, the price went crazy. I rather buy a new badass monitor or something else like that, rather than one ship that will need a lot of work after I get the **** thing in hand. Your ship is cool, and you DID catch it just right.
I look at pictures of it once in a while.
I am going to be happy with ARMADA... for that Nebbie at least. I think.

Like in the movies?
Now you are just being crazy!
Well The design is for any wargame, X-wing being my game of choice. 4X4 -4X8 are common though. So Yeah the objective will be to switch from space tiles/mats to flockmats. There is going to be a dedicated wargaming room.
I had rather have that than a live in girlfriend.
I'm personally contemplating this when the raider is available properly. But there is an argument to building for the long range slugfest with more turbolasers instead:
2 x quad cannons
1 x ion battery
2 x tibanna gas supplies
1 x Sensor team
1 x Engineering team
1 x weapons engineer
1 x Shield technician
For a total of 128. I valued having actually having some okay shield regen over Han's augmentations for attacks. I'll just settle for having re-rolls from the lock. I don't think paying 4 for the Tantive IV title is worth trying to get him in too. The gas is there because the extra weapons eat energy so much that it's not possible to get moving and gun down ships that get too close. Ion battery is cool but can easily be swapped for a quad, I like the flexibility in range it offers over going full quad lasers and trusting everything at range 3 to the primary weapon.
Isn't Tibanna Gas Supplies Limited?
It is. Cannot use two of them on one ship.

Pro's of being married.
Pro's of buying a 'fixer upper' house (it's big, I got it cheap, there are cons, I may as well have bought shares in power tool stock). I'd add that because i've bought said power tools I thought f**k it, i've got these - let's build a game table while i'm at it!

I dig it. On my side it's life long bachelor. I live in a very nice little apartment and have two or three females pals... that live in their own part-mants.
The whole living room is a game parlor for me.
I did the house thing before and it was fine too.
Have fun!
Post us some pictures when you are ready to show off some!
It'll be a while, but yeah I will.
I literally only closed the thing on the 30th, my todo list is huge BUT I really want a huge ass Xwing campaign. (a game for me is never enough. I need narrative, objectives, limits, logistics! ).
Turbolasers on my CR-90 to hammer the enemy capital ship while I flank its blind spot with Procket A's and B-Wings!
A-wings could do it, but I don't think B-wings would be fast enough. You'd need (and I can't believe I'm saying this) -
- X-wings.
Raider or not, I'm running that CR-90 as THIN as possible. Every point you sink into it AFTER full weapon compliment + Han is a point away from your Escort/Swarm. THIS is a small-ship's game; you simply must invest in Escort or it'll be an uphill battle.

Same goes for the Raider, Im flying it so THIN it'll disappear if it turns sideways.
Thin Mints (Raider):
On the above I am absolutely agreed. Fattening a cap is a mistake.
