The Triple-Threat

By DraconPyrothayan, in X-Wing

I like the analysis a lot. Makes sense. I've discovered that fast tough ships are right in my wheelhouse, so I'll have to try it out....

...if I ever get a second and third Firespray.

I wonder if the upcoming Thread Tracers are a decent way to spend a point. With only 2 other ships firing, I suspect not, but I haven't done the math.

"If this attack hits, each friendly ship at Range 1-2 of you may acquire a target lock on the defender.

Q: Is a ship considered to be at Range 1 of itself?

A: Yes

Mmmm?

In a TLT dominated meta it might actually be pretty decent to be honest. Thats a lot of hit points to chew through with good fire arcs.

It did get me thinking about a Scum equivalent.

Ragtag

Trandoshan Slaver

Mandalorian Merc

IG-88C? (I don't who would be better, maybe D, but A could work also)

You could drop the Mando take another Slaver and get 6 points to play with but where is the fun in that.

I played against this list(3xBH) in the tournament I won last Saturday. I ran Kavil+Predator+TLT,Drea+TLT+Unhinged, Slaver+Bossk+gunner+tactician. This list had me a bit worried as there is a lot of hull/shield to chew through and it has 3 attack dice each at range 2-3 but I was able to do it with only losing Drea and I even lost my TLT as the first crit she took.

I love Dracon's analytical threads. Best **** theorycraft on the boards.

Oh god that casual comment about Palob and EH made everything about him fall into place for me. Thank you FFG for K4 security droid, making stressing yourself so much less awkward.

The stuff about the Firespray is also nice I guess :P

Dracon's line is definitely going to be stolen :P

and I am not ashamed to admit it

I'll be using it in conversations, but changing it to be "Dear Listeners, I am Smoking facts."

I fought against this list in an Assault at Imdaar tournament which I won. We were the top table prior to the new ship round and managed a win with Golden Daggers (2x Gold Sqdn with ICT and 2 x Dagger Sqdn with Adv Sensors)

The weakness of this list (3x BH) is they don't like asteroids...place them relatively close together and drag them through and watch the car crash.

Aye, there is that.

A tight asteroid cluster is irksome to any large-base ship with firing arcs.

Fortunately Debris Fields now exist, and your Turn 0 asteroid placements should be similar to the Bro-Bots, until you are confident that you'll not run afoul of the rocks.
