I love the 3-4 player scenario, for a quick game of Armada. So now I want that beautiful Liberty to try to make that run. Effective speed 4 with engine techs, and a nasty front arc. Only the CR90 can get there faster, but can you kill it in a single pass?
Edited by cynanbloodbaneRace for the base, with an MC80 Star cruiser?
Eh, first time we played it, I took a MC80 Assault Cruiser (With Engine Techs and Enhanced Armaments), and I was still the First Player there...
Plus, throwing 7 Red Dice at an opponent's Raider on the way through was just so much fun....
Only the CR90 can get there faster
...while Interdictor with GSR and ET will move the base closer to himself. And G7 will force one of the opponents to start at 0. Ouch.

Oooo... I had not even considered how nasty that thing will be in the Base Race.
How very interesting...

Please, have you heard about my Red Die Hell?
It lived.

I openly grinned at that. The last time we did that scenario we had a ring of obstacles around the station. Oh my the fun.

we decided also to modify the rules for nezt playthrough of that scenario. Kills count towards points. So an Engine Tech Liberty would be really good.
Also toyed with each killshot gets you half the ship value, but anyone (including person who took last shot) who laid at least 1 damage on the ship that died gets a 5 or 10 point token. Encourages a crazy mentality of everyone shoots everyone and someone still races for objective.

At long range it's extremely unlikely that you'll one-shot a raider with 7 reds anyway. Let's see, what would kill it...
3acc/2dbl/2hit
1acc/2dbl/4hit
1acc/3dbl/2hit/1blank
1acc/4dbl/2blank
7dbl
All pretty unlikely. It's not just you, it's the terrible, terrible red dice.

At best it could have been 8 Dice, but I was engine Teching at the time...
4 (Base)
+1 (Enhanced Armaments)
+1 (Objective Ship)
+1 (Defiance)
So I missed out on
+1 (Concentrate Fire)
But mostly, it was back when we'd mis-read the rules on scoring, and thought you'd pick up points for what you'd killed as well... because I ended up trashing like, 4 enemy ships... But with my own loss, the scoring ended up being only +30 to me
