2016 Lists – My Top 10 X-Wing Resolutions

By FisherSpassky, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Here's my quick Top 10 list for the coming new year. Chime in with your own resolutions!

1. I will not feel the need to squeeze Push The Limit into every list (just most of them).

2. Don't equip too much ordinance to use in a realistic game.

3. Run Ghost and Phantom as 100-point list.

4. Finally figure out how to fly the Punisher.

5. Finally figure out how to use bombs and win (at least once).

6. Own two StarVipers.

7. Enter my first official tournament.

8. Don't succumb to the boring-to-fly-but-effective TLT nonsense.

9. Make a Scyk Swarm.

10. Continue to fly casual.

My top 10 Resolutions for Xwing are:

1) Land a g'damned mine on someone using Deathrains front guide.

2) teach my fiancee how to play so i can beat her without feeling guilty.

3) run something other than an imperial list at a tournament.

4) win an Alt Art Vader and 3P0

5) play more games on Vassal

6) win games on Vassal

7) Get better at making lists

8) run an imperial list that doesnt include a Tie Adv. or Phantom or both.

9) run a crack swarm and win

10) idk... bacon? refer to #7

Here's my quick Top 10 list for the coming new year. Chime in with your own resolutions!

8. Don't succumb to the boring-to-fly-but-effective TLT nonsense.

#1 is easy

Tie/FOs seemed wedded to PTL before the expac came in. Now? It's all about that Juke + Relay, baby ^_^ (also crackshot) or Predator if you're Zeta Leader.

only poor Omega Ace still needs it :(

#8 is also easy

K-wing

w/seismic charges!

trolls your enemy all day long

My only X-Wing resolution is to play the same list for more than a week! Have my list sorted for this year and my first tournament is on Saturday... Bring on 2016! ;)

to win a game

1-10) Play more X-Wing.

1. Continue to have Tournament lists and Fly Casual lists

2. Continue to not fly the 4 b-wing lists, those are so annoying

Those maybe it.

1) Play with each pilot in the rebel and imperial factions at least 1 time.

2) Play more Epic games

3) Find ways to get underused upgrades into the game (Elusiveness, Intimidation, Flight Instructor, Countermeasures, Autoblaster, etc)

4) Recreate scenes in the movies and in Rebels.

5) Play scenarios (I still haven't played any...)

No brains remaining to write full 10 wish list...

1- Play 2 Gozanty + Raider vs 2 GR 75.+ GR 90 ( and a lot of small ships )

2- In my work area's restroom there is a 80 x 80 table with a 60 x 60 play area, ready to play, two basic setd. Bring more stuff ( one B, one A, two interceptors ). Work mates are not on.minis, but fast 15 minute games are played.

3- Start working in a 5 feet long death star trench.

1) Memorize all of the pilot cards, ship movement dials and upgrade cards

2) Become proficient at playing on Vassal (memorizing the shortcuts, etc)

3) Start a local group for face to face games every week

4) Purchase Scum and Villainy ships

5) Buy more Battlefoam trays for the newer waves

6) Get an X-Wing themed hockey jersey from Geek Jerseys

7) Continue to give shout outs to the Podcasters that put a lot of time and effort into bringing us great content!

8) Buy the Raider to field both sides (currently) of the core of Epic games and actually play one

9) Get beat by my nephew with his shiny new ships from Christmas and the one(s) he will get for his birthday

10) Do yoga every day so that I am in good physical condition for playing in tournaments next year!
