By RoockieBoy, in X-Wing Battle Reports

Hi guys! I took pictures of my last game of X-wing, and I wanted to share a batrep with all of you!

My list:

Inquisitor, PTL, AT, TIE/v1

Wampa

Lt. Colzet, Tie/x1, AC

OGP, Baffle, APL, Palpatine

100p

My buddy's list:

Vader, Squad Leader, Tie/x1, ATC, EU, Thread tracers

Inquisitor, PTL, AT, TIE/v1, Thread tracers

Omega Ace, Expose, Comms, SD

99p

My opponent had the initiative and kept it.

My deployment:

My opponent deploys all his ships in his left corner

Turn 1:

I do my usual moves, making the OGP and Colzet bump without moving at all. Wampa does a left 1 turn and BR to the left to start all over again next turn. I learned this from a video ft Francisco Menendez, and I really liked it, as it allows you to see where the enemy is going. Inq goes 3 bank to the right to try to flank from my left.

My opponent advances fast, leaving Vader right behind Omega Ace and Inq.

Turn 2:

I keep doing my bumping moves with all but the Inq, who moves 5 straight, and boosts to the right, dodging the rock.

My opponent turns his ships towards my Inq, but through the asteroids.

Turn 3:

I start coming out of my "castle" with all 3 ships to support the Inq. The OGP lands in the debris, and I hurt myself to avoid being stressed and to focus, just in case I end up being in range. Colzet evades, as he's too far to TL. Wampa also evades.

IMG_3746.jpg

My inq TLs his Inq, and I PTL for a focus to buff him up, as he was TLd by both vader and enemy Inq.

IMG_3748.jpg

Omega Ace hits a rock by a hair's width, and loses its shield. Vader buffs the Inq with a focus, because he had to boost to get in range.

IMG_3749.jpg

Vader shoots first, getting a blank and a hit, plus the added crit. I save both, without spending any token or the Emperor. His inq uses both the TL and the focus for 3 hits, and even though I blank, I evade all 3, thanx to AT (we did it wrong, and found out after the match), the evade token, and Palp.

I then decide to go for a token-less vader, and I spend my focus to get both shields off!

Turn 4:

OGP leaves the debris field behind with a green move, and focuses. Colzet TLs vader just in case we hit hull, and wampa bumps into the OGP, but is in good spot.

IMG_3751.jpg

My opponent tries to block my Inq with his, in order to hit him hard with vader and Omega Ace, so he does a TL and a BR with his Inq. Omega Ace bumps slightly into vader, so vader has to give him a free action, and he focuses. Vader evades.

I surprise my opponent with a 4 straight with my Inq which allows me to clear stress, and get out of firing arc of all his ships. I also boost to start turning around, but decide not to PTL.

IMG_3752.jpg

Wampa shoots the Inq, and he gets a natural crit! So I deal a damage card to my opponent. OGP and Colzet shoot Vader, but he spends the evade token and he evades every shot.

Turn 5:

OGP makes a full stop, and I decide not to hurt myself to avoid the stress as this turn can be crucial. Colzet moves forward and evades, and wampa bumps him, but is still in a good spot to target his Inq.

IMG_3753.jpg

My opponent decides to go all-in and forgets about my Inq, which won't be able to fire this turn, and turns all three of his ships towards the OGP and friends.

. IMG_3754.jpg

His idea is to fire the tracers with vader at Wampa, so Omega Ace can Focus, Expose, and use his ability on Wampa, possibly taking him out. Vader hits 3 times, but Wampa saves all three! Omega Ace then can't use his ability, as he doesn't have a TL. Anyway, with Expose and his focus he gets a hit and double crits! And this time, I blank all three! I use Palpatine for an evade, and luckily the 2 crits don't kill wampa. (Damaged engine and another one I forgot). The enemy Inquisitor doesn't have wampa on his arc so he fires the OGP, only managing 1 hit, which I evade.

Finally, my Wampa shoots his inquisitor without the help of Palpatine, but...

IMG_3755.jpg

Another crit by himself! The enemy Inq dies before losing any shield.

IMG_3756.jpg

IMG_3757.jpg

Both Colzet and the OGP fire at Vader, and manage to damage him once.

IMG_3758.jpg

Then, Colzet uses his ability and it turns out damaged engine!

IMG_3759.jpg

Turn 6:

My OGP bumps wampa to try stick there and block, but also clears stress. Wampa and Colzet both do a 4k. My inquisitor joins the fight, and TLs Vader. Vader and Omega Ace both elude my block, and TL the OGP. Omega Ace also focuses.

IMG_3760.jpg

They both fire and do 4 damage to the OGP, taking all my shields. I save Palpatine for Wampa. My Inq fails to do damage to Vader, and Wampa rolls hit, blank. I turn it into a Crit with Palpatine.

IMG_3761.jpg

Vader evades one, and receives a crit. Right after that, Colzet's AC finishes him off.

IMG_3762.jpg

Turn 7:

OGP bumps his Omega Ace. Colzet closes in and TLs. Wampa goes for a block. Inq TLs and Focuses. Omega Ace eludes both my block and the asteroid, but has no one in arc.


IMG_3763.jpg

Inq fires for three damage, and Omega Ace blanks. Standing on 1 hull, is finished up by Colzet.

IMG_3764.jpg

I've only lost half points of the OGP, and Wampa is almost gone.

Thanks for reading!

What a nice, rare picture of Palpatine taking Vader under his wing!

(I'll see myself out.)

Hehe Palp also wanted to "hug" Wampa, but he refused...

P.S. Did you enjoy the batrep? Is it too long? Too many pics? It´s the first one of many, I hope, so any feedback is welcome!

No such thing as too many pictures. This forum needs more pictures.

What he said. Picture batreps are the best.

Awesome! I just got into X-Wing this January, but I had been playing 40k for 5 or so years, and picture batreps were my favorite, and I don't see much of those in X-Wing. Let's change that!
