hello all, I am bored at work and wanted to talk about x-wing so....

What is your current list? Why do you like it? and what is your overall record with it?

here is mine

"CrackDraw"

Quickdraw with title, rage, baffle, shield upgrade

howlrunner with Crackshot

3x black squadren with Crackshot

I am currently 2-1 with it.

I like it because the gimicky Double tap is fun, and i like flying a miniswarm of ties. I never flew a swarm before and i think it looks cool on the table!

how about you?

"Omega leader" with juke, comm relay, and stealth device

"Epsilon ace" with shield upgrade and sensor cluster

Rexler brath with TIE/D, tractor beam, TIE MK II, homing missiles, and predator

1-2, the two losses due to 1. Im not used to fast ships and 2. I was outflown

I don't have a name for it, but i like it, i just need to fly it better

Sometimes I think the divide in skill level among players is highly correlated with whether a question like "What is your current list?" makes sense to the person being asked.

It makes no sense to me. So much so that there was a quarter-second when my brain went, " ... WTF does that mean?"

Top-level tournament performers, it seems like, have "a list" at any given time.

Me, at any given time I have 20 lists I want to fly.

Still my "devils in red" -

Backdraft (32)

-VI

-Pattern Analyzer

-FCS

-Title

Quickdraw (31)

-Rage

-Electronic Baffle

-Title

Countess Ryad (36)

-PTL

-Tie/X7

-Twin Ion Engines MK2

Haven't kept a tally on it's wins and losses. It is a joy to fly though.

Sienar Test Pilot w/ V1 title x2

Scimitar Sqd Pilot w/ Plasma Torps, Proton Rockets, Guidance Chips x2

Scimitar Sqd Pilot w/ Shuttle title, Fleet Officer, Systems Officer, TIE Mk2

Had a few good games with more full bombers and Obsidian ties, but never fired off everything. So slimmed the bombers down and upgraded the Obsidians to Adv Prototypes. All PS2 should be easier to fly too.

well to put it a different way, If you are going to play a game right now, what would you fly? My list is what i played yesterday and still together in my box. my squad builder app has about 30+ list i have yet to fly.

Currently I'm trying out some more scum 2 large ship builds after my success with Ketsu/Kath, just to try new things. I'm going to try see how replacing Kath with Bossk works and this list below seems like it could be fun. I call it IG-666 (probably used by someone before).

IG-88B: Crackshot, HLC, FCS, Autothrusters, IG-2000, Glitterstim - 50 pts

Moralo Eval: HLC, IG-88D, Hotshot Copilot, Dengar, Intertial Dampeners - 50 pts

Strategy is for Moralo to shoot first with primary weapons and use Dengar to get a worse result to try and miss to force the focus token spending. Then fire back with HLC from IG-88B's ability from the D crew and then fire with IG-88B to hopefully apply a finishing kill or severely cripple a ship.

My current list has been revolving around bomb dropping K-Wings. I was flying 2 Wardens with Biggs, then moved to Miranda + Guardian. Now it is 3 Wardens with an assortment of bombs and crew. My newest list has performed very well. Between the casual games and tournaments, I am around 10-2. My best placing at a tournament was with this list while playing with some of the top Minneapolis players; 3rd out of 32 players which netted me a Shadowcaster and some alt art cards I didn't have yet.

Poe Dameron (PS9) — T-70 X-Wing33

Asajj Ventress - Mindlink, slicers, dengar

Manaroo - Mindlink, slicers, unhinged, k4

Black Sun Ace - Mindlink, slicers

The k fighter has performed surprisingly well and it's been a lot of fun to play.

well to put it a different way, If you are going to play a game right now, what would you fly?

There we go, that's a question that makes sense to me. I think I would try something with two TIE/sfs and a third ship. You know why? Because I saw one in this thread 20 seconds ago, and it looked fun ... SQUIRREL!

Currently 6-0 with this one, Though the list is 8 (ish) Months old the last three games being at a local event and taking 1st, thanks to a call of 1 on C-3PO and getting it keeping Keyan alive.

Roark Garnet

- TLT

- Jan Ors

Keyan Farlander

- Push the Limit

- B-Wing/E2

- C-3PO

"Red Ace"

- R2-D2

- Comm Relay

- Integrated Astromech

But I'm currently running

Rear Admiral Chiraneau

- Ruthlessness

- Seismic Charges

- Agent Kallus

- Weapons Engineer

- Hotshot Co-Pilot

- Extra Munitions

- Dauntless

- Tactical Jammer

Colonel Vessery

- Veteran Instincts

- Twin Ion Engine MkII

- Tie/x7

I find both quite fun to fly.

Currently messing with builds that have both corran and rage tycho, just a fun list but does seem to run quite well

Manaroo Aces

Manaroo + Unhinged + K4 + Feedback

Fenn + PTL + AT

Talonbane + Fearlessness + EU

99 points

Double Phantoms

Whisper + VI + ACD + FCS + Gunner

Echo + VI + ACD + FCS + Rec Spec

Academy Pilot

96 points

Triple /SF

... Of various types. My favorite right now is one with Crackdraw, and two Omega Cracks with Ion Pulse Missiles. All with FCS and Sensor Cluster of course. Oh and GC on the Omega's because why not?

I am not sure what the win loss ratio is but I feel like I do alright. Not many takers for Manaroo Aces or Phantoms these days so I end up flying /SFs a lot...

The twin YV-666's in my sig - won 22, lost 4, drew 1.

Lots of fun on them buses!

Last list I flew:

Tarn Mison - R7

Three Red Sqdn pilots. One with R3A2, one with a targeting Astromech, one with a seismic torpedo.

Beat Manaroo, Rau and old feller Fangs. Long match though. Two hours, roughly.

I'm flying a lot of Norra + Biggs + 3rd ship. Trying to find who I like more as a wingman.

7-2

Have tried Braylen (0-1), Thane (3-1), Shara (3-0), and currently trying Wes (1-0). Will play a few more games with Wes as he did really good in my first game against a RAC+HSCP+GUNNER with x7 juking Rex. Wes stripped tokens and Norra did 4 damage to Rex at range 1 in first round of fire. Great 1-2 punch. Wes had VI+M9G8+Vectored Thrusters. M9G8 lets Norra hit really hard.

Love the ARC, and some variant of Norra Biggs will probably be my regionals list next month. Cassian has a lot of potential and will fit right in since I have 35pts to play with. He will be tested after a couple more games with Wes.

ArcsArcsArcs (biggs is honary ARC)

100

Biggs, R4-D6, IA (26)

Red Squadron Pilot, R2-D6, Crackshot, IA (25)

Red Squadron Pilot, R3-A2, IA (25)

Red Squadron Pillot, R5 astromech, IA (24)

Sitting at 13-3 for tournaments (each loss is in the finals) and about 23-5 overall.

For some really weird reason people actually enjoy being beaten by this squad.

I have been messing about with "the Expendables":

Biggs w/IA and R4-D6

Tarn w/IA and R7

Pava w/IA and R2 Astro

Cracken w/VT and Squad Leader

Since it's the next thing I'll be flying, I guess my current list would be the Inquisitor, Carnor Jax and a selection of bombers and generic TIEs, around 200 pts., if I recall. H2 mission is my next game, and I find that list more interesting than the last one, which consisted of Night Beast, a few Black Squadron and a couple of Avengers.

This is refreshing. People talking about the not too tier meta b.s. all the time.

I liked the idea abou hotshot copilot and using denger to get a miss to use gunner. Classic!
