In between standard tournaments, I like to run oddball events for my store league. One idea we've been throwing around is a variant of the standard dogfight.
Squadbuilding: As usual except that squads are built with 150 points and may contain a maximum of 8 ships. In addition, every printed upgrade icon (whether on a ship card or provided by an upgrade or elsewhere) must be filled with an upgrade that has some utility, however remote, to that squad. (That is, you can't put Extra Munitions on a ship that has no other munitions. You can include upgrades that are highly situational, but you must be able to justify each upgrade if challenged. Example: A ship without bombs probably has no use for Bombardier, unless Moff Jerjerrod is also onboard.) (Also note that you are not required to equip modifications or titles.)
Play Time: 90 minutes.

Given those conditions, I'd like to see your most wicked squads.
