What illegal list is most likely to go unnoticed at a store championship?

By Velvetelvis, in X-Wing

One guy went to regionals with 2 R2D2s :D One was on red ace and another one on poe. He did quite well but didn't make a cut. Nevertheless nobody noticed till round 6 ended.

How did no one notice this? :D We are talking about an effect that takes place pretty much every turn.

An A wing without refit but still taking the -2 or having 2 EPTs without the title. Those are illegal but don't really impact the game as some of the others listed.

I played against a dengaroo in last year regionals. He had both counter measure and engine upgrade on dengar. It wasn't caught until the 3rd round. I just figured dengar can equip anything he wants. He is dengar afterall. :)

I've been working on a few Norra builds lately and had settled on either Tail Gunner or Kyle Katarn. Yesterday, I ran the Kyle Katarn version.

For some reason, in my second game of the day, my brain decided I had both equipped and I used Tail Gunner twice before my opponent called me out on it.

I'd put one damage onto his Omega Leader in the process, so I suggested we put that shield back, give him a target lock on me (since he didn't have one from taking a new evade token) and also take a focus. I felt really bad about it, but he was really good about it and (he) went on to win the tournament anyway.

Anything with a Jumpmaster.

At regionals, someone had two illicits on a jumpmaster. Nobody caught it until I think 4th match and I think he was 3-0. Immediate DQ.

''Hold it right there. You're only allowed to have one illegal item on that class of vessel sir! I'm gonna have to issue a 3000 credit citation, your court date will be 3 weeks from now on Correllia.''

1 illicit is a misdemeanor

2 illicits is a felony

"Ship with high PS but no EPT-slot has an EPT anyway" is always a classic. I remember running into a VI Horten at some small tournament in the 3. round.

VI Horton is possible with the EPT droid.

Using a missile or Torp on a ship equipped with the other one. Like a proton Torp on an Awing or something

Only because it was a JM5K.

"Why you gotta try and make that ship even MOar OP, sir?!? Disqualified!!"

Quickdraw with Rage and Electronic Baffle, and a ship next to it with Inspiring Recruit. Nope, you cannot discard 2 stress with a single baffle.... Had to call a judge on that one :P

Why not?? Just curious

I've heard of people showing up with Backdraft and Snapshot, and getting really sad when they find out the rear arc doesn't count...

Any list with 4 different ships in it has a habit of being rapidly unlikely for anyone to notice points adding up a little crooked.

I still run into people who misinterpret how the Special Ops Training Title works.

Because you don't remove a stress token, you discard it. Inpsiring Recruit only triggers in situations where you remove (green move or a white with Kanan) a stress.

2 Bomb Loadouts on a Y-Wing. No one will even check if it's limited, especially if you have no Bombs.

i'm waiting for someone to try this with a bomblet generator

So I'm gonna play devils advocate here. Correct me if I've missed a clarification somewhere on the difference between removing and discarding. Sabine crew says when a bomb token is "removed". All bomb token reference cards say tokens are "discarded". So if there is a difference between the two Sabine would never work??

Gonna call shenanigans on this. The fact you got away with that ruling is the real cheat.

Get rekt everyone. ***** give me my trophy.

Chips are probably still the way to go for a regional. And you should probably plan a trip to Alaska or something to do it.
