I'm between lists, as it were...

That... sounds like it was slightly one sided...

Haha! Yes. I'm finding Round 3 missions are going one way or the other. This one was a mix of bad decisions and bad luck. Luck would've only made it a bit fair in points, but the decisions were still bad and it would've been a lose with better luck.

Happy Friday!

My favourite list to fly is

-Thane

Title

R2D2

Jan Ors

Vectored Thrusters

- Red Squadron Veteran x2

Juke

Comm Relay

Targeting Astromech

Integrated Astromech

That looks like a fun list. Have you tried the RSV's with R3s instead of Targeting Astromechs?

5x Kihraxz by far my favorite and four Starvipers are fun also.

Bon Vendredi!

My favorite list is anything 300 points and up. Ships vary at a whim, and contents may settle during shipping.

Happy Friday to you as well!

My oldie goldie favorite list is "rebel aces":

Jake + Nera + blue squadron pilot + Proto

No favorite list at the moment as I've been so busy doing GenCon testing or HotAC that I have barely played 100/6 matches in months.

Had fun testing last night, but got bloodied really badly. Score was 188 vs. -18. Yes, negative18.

I am sad Mr Jim that you did not say 5 bombers....

While the R3s do add an additional means of getting their evade tokens I personally haven't had a problem maintaining my evade tokens. I'm usually willing to drop 1 of my evades a turn and it's not common for both of my X-wings to be major targets on a turn. Meanwhile Targeting Astromechs have been an unexpected staple to the list allowing the firepower of the list to be maintained through a K-turn or Talon roll turn.

Cool. I think I'm going to give this list a try!

The list I am rocking right now is an aces list.

Vader with ATC, EU, title, and Predator.

Soontir with the usual.

Inquisitor with title and Juke.

Fun to play, a tough fight for sure but enjoyable.

I never flew 5. I always flew 4, as you need to put some ordnance on those puppies. I did enjoy flying them many times, but my favorite? I dunno. I also like Vader w/ Tie Fighters and probably flew them longer. To be honest, it's been so long since I flew many 100 pt games that I just haven't had a list at all lately. I feel a bit out of touch with the "normal" game.

5 with sem charges is a woot. You can totally wreck j-bot with it .

I have a tournament list that does great in casual:

Patrol Leader-Rebel Captive (43)

2x Delta Sqd Pilot-TIE/x7 each (56)
