The StressBat

By 4fox100, in X-Wing

So was messing around with a couple ideas i had with regards to the glorious Ren Bat. And i was thinking since it has a title that gives out stress why not give it some stress crew as well. So i present to you the StressBat

Starkiller Base Pilot

Rebel Captive

Mara Jade

Title

Or

Starkiller Base Pilot

Rebel Captive

Kylo Ren

Title

Personally I don't think they will be super competitive but it should be a load of fun to stress multuple ships on the same turn. I also like the version with Kylo a little better for more diversity (also run with Backdraft for the lols) the version with Mara has its merits but she might cause some conflict with the title.

Tactician > Mara Jade. If Mara Jade stacked stress she'd be worth the points. With the title you'll be giving someone a stress at range 1-2 anyway. Mara seems redundant.

Yeah, Mara and the Title both only work if the enemy ship doesn't have stress already. Rebel Captive is able to add stress to an already stressed ship, but it will trigger before the Title or Mara, so you're still not able to get someone with that dreaded double-stress. Seems like a huge pain to play against, and it will really limit opponent's dials, but it's manageable as an opponent.

Also it's important to note that the title does not trigger if there are no un-stressed, unfriendly ships at range 1-2 of you. You as the owner of the Kylor Ren's Shuttle Title card must pick specifically an unstressed ship to give a stress token to. The opposing player may then choose to put that stress on a different, already stressed ship at range 1-2 of you if they so desire. This title card is needlessly wordy and complicated. Could have simplified the whole thing way down by using this.

"At the end of the combat phase if there is at least one unfriendly, unstressed ship at range 1-2 of you the opposing player must choose a ship they control at range 1-2 of you and assign that ship one stress token."
