Transports and Gozantis...come in threes!?!

By Plainsman, in X-Wing

Its official, my son requested a THIRD transport last night after we finished our last Epic game! He's understanding their full capabilities now and wants to run a blocking force of three!

I have wanted three Gozantis ever since I saw they were going to actually be available! They run in squads of three on Rebels and can carry a full squadron of Ties!

So one of my next XWing orders will be another Transport and Gozanti!

The only question now is what do I add to the fleets? A second Raider and Tantive or two more Lambdas, or another Decimator or 2KWings or...

Will it ever end?!?

I hope not!

Get dat fine lad tree of 'ems... dammits!

:lol:

No - he's not allowed three because that's too many Epic points :)

I think they should have made the "epic points" aspect of epic play a minimum you have to meet, not a maximum.

I envy your wealth.

I'm so jealous. My oldest is 24 and lives out of state and my two youngest are 2 years and 5 months - one is too far away to game with me anymore, the other two are at least 5 years too young. Glad you guys have fun.

Can I have the spare astromechs from the transport, please? :P

Boo! Who plays epic tournament rules anyways? (although I really love the asteroid placement rules they have, I use those)

The epic point limit is entirely unnecessary in casual games, which is where epic thrives.

Only if you're playing in an Epic tournament. Otherwise, 300 points is only a recommended points value, and there's no such thing as "epic points". I know people suggest that you should use the tournament rules instead of the standard rules even in non-tournament games, but that's a house rule, and if you both agree, you can do what you like.

Also, one of the scenarios included with the GR-75 uses three of 'em anyway.

Personally, if I were playing in a game with three huge ships or more per side, I'd consider increasing the playing area even more - more depth between starting areas, rather than more width.

This is why I always base my playing areas on a 6'x4' table, for all my games! I'd never make or buy a 3'x3' play mat or table.

Our last battle was 425 pts with a Tantive and two transports and a Raider and two Gozantis for huge ships!

I just made two lists experimenting for our next game, each around 725 pts!

We've been playing with a little over three feet in width and just over 6' in length, its not big enough! We are looking for material in black to cover our entire 9'x5' table for Epic! The extra is definitely needed

I really really want to pick up a second Gozanti myself. But I'm also waiting impatiently for Wave 8...

Any time the rules tell you that you are not allowed to be too Epic, the rules are wrong.

Three Gozantis on the table at once, now that would be epic....

I quite agree - a little unfair on Scum though.

and to everyone else who says Epic points don't matter - you did detect the smiley face at the end of my post right?

I was thinking myself that the transports campaign had three of them in it and i thought 'who owns three transports!'

And now i know :)
