Z-95 Headhunter: Tala Squadron Pilot (13)X 4

Z-95 Headhunter: Bandit Squadron Pilot (12)X 4

Total: 100/100

Just curious, has anyone tried this?

Of course someone has tried it! 8 ships is tough to beat. I don't know anyone who actually owns 8 z-95's, but I've seen it on VASSAL a few times (along with the feedback 7 zed scum version). Both are quite strong jousting lists...

I've heard about VASSAL a few times on here. What is it?

Came in second at the first Houston SC this year.

It's a tough list, both to fly and to beat if flown well. It has a lot of guns, a lot of health, a lot of firing arcs, and a lot of potential blockers.

I do. I bought six when I first started playing X-Wing because they were on sale and I thought it'd be funny to fly a swarm of six of them against my friends. Then S&V came out and I snagged two copies of Most Wanted, putting me up to ten damned Z-95s. Guess it's a good thing I like them so much.

It's a computer program, basically lets you play X-Wing (or other board games/table top games) online.

I personally enjoy it, since I can't always make weekly meet-ups or get over to a friend's house but I still really want to play some X-Wing (and maybe with some good folks). I do know some people who also don't care for it, since they feel it's cheating themselves having spent money to actually buy the miniatures. Personally, I tend to only use stuff I own in order to not feel like I'm doing anything "wrong", even if sometimes that means I might play with something unreleased so long as I've pre-ordered it.

Does VASSAL cost anything like a membership fee of something?

No it's free.

I think this list can work if you position correct and prioritize targets. :)

Looks fun, how competitive don't know, but fun :)

There was a store championship in Texas at the beginning of January where the final was between 8 Zs and 4 TLT Thugs. The Thugs won 100-75.

It's fun, but pray you don't meet phantoms.
