Uh, so I'm guessing all your TIEs are getting a reroll, huh?

Superbump.

I thought some people said fortressing was unsportsmanlike ...

... but your fortress just looks so cool!

4d x-wing anyone?

Does this mean we need firing cones, not arcs now?

Now that is a Flying Circus!

Bumping should be faq'ed to work like this.

Okay we need someone with real conversion skills to make TIE-Voltron!

Now that's formation flying....

Na just apply additional range for different heights. With a 3 level height (top, middle, bottom lets say) In order for Ship A at top height to Ship B at bottom height you need to be at range 1 horizontally but acts like a range 3 shot, or Ship A can shoot at Ship C at middle height range 1 would act like a range 2 shot and at range 2 would be a range 3. And vice versa shooting at a lower level to a higher one (because there is no "top or bottom" in space). Some other additions could be to barrel roll and boost where after you perform one of them you can count as a range higher or lower then what you where. While with normal movement after revealing your dial you can decrease the speed of your maneuver by 1 to move to another level. Would need some play testing but doesn't seem to much extra baggage for the game [aside from maybe bump issues but that could stay the same for the heck of it because reasons] (heck it could be done now using pegs for the change of heights 1 peg=bottom 2 pegs=middle 3 pegs=top)

This would be spectacular. I imagined the top TIE would have said "And I'll form.... the head!"

Voltron attempt?

Is this "That day" when our old maths teachers are proven correct...Pythagoras' Theorem really IS useful in the "Real" world ???

Now thats flying in formation!

That's what the punisher is for! I've been wondering all this time

I like the new bases

So this actually mirrors how Wings of War AKA Wings of Glory handles bumping.

You can either play with cards or play with models, and if two planes overlap the cards simply overlap, and if you're playing with models you replace them with the cards until they stop overlapping.

Uh, so I'm guessing all your TIEs are getting a reroll, huh?

17 and 19!'ight be farther than range 1 apart when you factor in height.

It's a brave new world! Measure range from any part of the model and if you have more facial hair than your opponent, you win!

TOWER! UNLIMITED TOWER!

Flew these 8 TIES at a tournament this weekend. With no howlrunner I didn't have to keep them in formation so tried all sorts of different setups.

A Fan:

A criss-cross applesauce:

and a fortress (4 facing left, 4 facing right, everyone does 2 straights for a few turns then try to break out):

But... why?

Because he can

for fun! I don't have howlrunner so I don't have to keep them in formation. hopefully by going crazy I can confuse my opponent. Good luck trying to predict my movements when there's 8 ships all flying completely different directions!
