Fortress Mother******

By Tbetts94, in X-Wing Squad Lists

You think this would actually work? Just fortress and set up the mines so that it's a funnel and they have to joust my guys. I don't really care if it works actually, I already got 3 Top 8 Rulers, Top 4 Rulers and a Kallus token.

The short answer? No. The longer answer? Also no.

You don't have enough bombs to reliably funnel them. Any player worth their salt can fly out of the "at range 3" restriction trap, and if you seal it entirely, it'll be far too shallow to keep them where you want them. After that, hour list is decent but still lacks the firepower to really take on this meta.

Having more mines to throw is nice, and, hey, I might be wrong because you do have a metric ton of health on these guys. But, still, probably not the best idea for winning.

For fun? Eh, depends on how effective the bomb funnel is.

Don't funnel them.

Put a big asteroid at 2x2 in the corner. Put your fortress in the same corner. Then lay your cluster mines to block the approaches around that asteroid, so to get in firing range of you they have to come through your minefield.

Sorry I'm still new to the game what do you mean by "just fortress?"

Bump into your own ships indefinitely without any of them moving.
