Bombs away

By Redjones69, in X-Wing Squad Lists

need help with my idea. I want to have a op at my store that is different and I was thinking of some kind of ruling that would force the player to have bombs in their list but couldn't think of a way to make it more flavor full than that. If any one has or knows of a format to help or any suggestions please share:)

You could have people prepare a number of lists in a list builder and print them out and assign one randomly each week to the players. Get a good mix of purposely good and bad lists as well as letting people try things they might not otherwise.

edit: I don't know how you would specifically incorporate bombs so not especially helpful.

Just add a restriction or special rule that all squads have to respect / can use.

Some simple ides...

  • "All [bomb] upgrades cost 2 points less."
  • "Your list must include at least 2 ships equipped with a [bomb] upgrade."

I prefer the first one. If someone REALLY doesn't want to equip bombs, he doesn't have to... but he'll be playing at a points disadvantage.

Deja vu...

I would award double MoV points for ships removed from the board by the direct effects of bombs. getting 70 points for Fel is a pretty good motivator to lay some Protons.

But I like Klutz' idea of reducing the point cost of bomb upgrades - might even make it a 3 point discount. 2 point Proton Bombs are an insane thought, though. But you can bet the house you'll have a number of them flying around.

Ban Torp scouts and possibly tlts

Scouts are literally the only list I couldn't beat with double conner aSLAM warden and Sabine double seismic Miranda (featuring Biggs)

Too much health to chew through. Not even aggressors present that much issue :(

Any turrets on those girls? Post the list.

I need to buy another K-Wing.

Argh phone

Warden has autoblaster conner extras aSLAM

Biggs is r4d6vintegrared (ie Biggs)

Miranda has TLT Sabine seismic seismic

If tlts come back, you're looking at homing missile Miranda with extras and Sabine on the warden instead of autoblaster
