I have several NPE :

"Complain about what you play" : I love my tie/sf or interceptor what the big deal ? Especially when they play TLT or large ship only but said title/sf is op....

"Always lucky with the dice" : But said nothing when they have luck during the game...

"Boring game" : I have no fun when my opponent refuse the fight, play defensive. No single shot during one hour....

"When he lose it's because of your*insert what you want" : but said nothing when they win with k-wing/sabine....

Seriously It's a fun game, win or lose is not important. Share a good moment with friends rather than complain !

Your list come closest to my NPE list, which is very short. The attitude of the player across from me. That's it.

I've been tabled by some players and still enjoyed the game. Laughed at absurd dice rolls and second guessing myself into poor movement decisions. I've won games that were worse than a bad day at work. All because of the player opposite.

Playing with all the Chewies of X-Win.

A game of X-Wing is NPE if it's been played Post Wave 8. Whether it's been Triple Torp Scouts, Dengaroo, Palp Aces, X7s, Parattani, or Sabine-Ks, games of X-Wing just aren't nearly as fun. Sure, Waves 1-7 had their own dominant list archetypes and stuff, but even a creative 'meh' list back in Wave 5 had a much better chance against the dominant list of the day than a list would have now. Lists have just gotten so good, and the skill ceilings so low, that it's run top-tier **** or GTFO.

I don't know about that, at their prime Phantoms and Fat Han were pretty solid roadblocks for a lot of squads competively.
