Bounty Hunter Brawl

By Thunder_Chicken, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Now that we have all of the bounty hunters I would like to play a 5-way free-for-all someday with each player controlling one ship. I played around with these builds, nothing competitive in the least bit, just trying to balance them out at 40 points each. I'd love to see what you guys could come up with. The only stipulation is that you must use the bounty hunter for a given ship type (Boba for Firespray, Dengar in JM5K, etc.) Again, this would just be for fun so, it doesn't have to be perfectly balanced or uber-efficient.

They all mostly look interesting except for Fett. I don't really like having 1-shot cards in this format because it only harms one opponent. At least Dengar has 2 torpedoes. For Fett, I'd almost want to give him VI instead. Sure, Dengar may be the better pilot, but Fett is still the best bounty hunter in the galaxy, so let's give him PS 10.

Yeah much better idea, I don't play competitively so I don't catch things like that. :)

Boba Fett (39)

  • Adaptability
  • Intelligence Agent

Total: 40

Ties with Dengar, experience (Boba) x skill (Dengar).

And Boba is always prepared, no matter the bounty. Intel Agent suits that (and synergizes with his ability).

Bossk (35)

  • Calculation (1)
  • Greedo (1)
  • Recon Specialist (3)

Total: 40

Synergizes with his ability and gives him his EPT.

Good ideas. I like Intelligence Agent on Fett. The problem is that he has no boost or barrel roll to act on that intel.

I can't find my original post, but I was thinking of having a BH free for all, but with these added rules:

Ships are divided into two teams.

Red team and Blue team.

Each ship has these special actions added to your action bar:

Defect: Change teams.

Recruit: Force a ship within range 1-3 to change teams, then receive a stress token.

Obviously everyone on your team is considered a friendly ship, and the other team are enemy ships.

If all ships are on the same team, every ship is considered an enemy ship.

Last man standing wins.
