Falcon vs Slave-1

By 4xholic, in X-Wing Battle Reports

New to X-Wing, but I am enjoying it so far. My son's a Boba/Slave-1 guy and I'm a Han/Falcon -> so we had to have a one-one match. Here's the lineup:

YT-1300/Han (46)

Falcon Card (1)

Engine Upgrade (4)

Nien Numb (1)

Luke (7)

Concussion Missiles (4)

Marksmanship (3)

TTL: 64

Firespray/Boba (39)

Slave-1 Card (0)

Engine Upgrade (4)

Gunner (5)

Heavy Laser Canon (7)

Proton Torp (4)

Pros Mines (3)

Homing Missiles (5)

TTL: 67

Open play field, the match turn out good. Went head to head, both banked left - Falcon got a couple good hits first. Slave-1 drops a prox mine and Falcon had 3-bank and went straight over the top - took a couple hits. Next few moves the Falcon took were slow and tight, getting some good hits. Slave-1 got a few good hits as well, but in the end the Falcon ruled :)

Your result isn't that surprising. In 1-on-1 games against a turret with repositioning abilities, generally you either move last, also have a turret, or you lose.

Don't see boba having any EPT. VI could have helped...
