I had a blast playing new stuff, spent time with good people, and the event was very well run.

I ran T-65s too and they were pretty good with FAA. Bob on the other hand was less than impressive.

I really don’t mean to be mean! I’m gonna take wave 1 to a regional in TYOOL 2018 and no one can talk me out of it!

If you ever want to geek out over flight-assist, I’m 100% down.

On a very separate note, the objectives stuff. In a tournament, isn’t the best strategy to run a list that dumpsters four or five missions, and punt the others? The generalist lists should get boxed out of a cut, and then whoever gets the mission draws in the cut wins out.

That is absolutely the correct strategy, and also hopefully impossible. Also, I need to double check the tournament rules, but the missions SHOULD be reshuffled in the cut, so just because you got your loss out of the way to a bad objective in swiss doesn't mean you're immune to seeing it in the cut.

Not usually, no. I left it at 2 point bid because who cares, but mk2 is probably worth on Rexlar. VI an a hull night be better too, but whatever.

Oh my God optics is so good, it should be stapled on everything

I like the thought of Rex/Maarek, both with Juke. They can both shoot before OA to take advantage fromt he evade for juke,t hen OA spends them for SL

Between this and Long Range Scanners, I can't imagine any logical reason why nearly all the shots fired during the first round 1 of combat in any game of X-Wing would not be fully modified.

This but unironically.

Because the focus token was spent defending against an equal or higher PS enemy attack first.

Good shot Jansen!

Serious question-

Gadsden Flag Quickdraw as an alt-art (because I lack the skills to make it a paint job on the side of a TIE)- Good, Bad, or Great idea?

I was spectating a vassal game the other night and someone decided they wanted to debate politics with me. The entire conversation was red herring, post ergo Propter hoc, and strawmen. While the idea would be cool and funny there are definitly people who i wouldn't want to deal with after they saw it

I guess yellow background with a TIE/SF with text that says "Don't **** with my shields" is a bad idea then.

"Don't shoot at me"

"No strip off shield"

Don’t stress on me

So what's the best alt/full-art pilot card photoshop template to use for making cards to print? Bob needs to get printed in time for Krayt Cup.

Only the best will do: MS paint.

We all know what should really get a Gadsden Flag.

Hot take-

Krayts are in cahoots with FFG and making us all forget the Silencer is in a big box for no reason and the bomber is $40 for no reason by hyping Advanced Optics to such a fever pitch we don’t even bother to look at the price tag when we buy them.

On another note, I’m seriously upset with my self for not asking for the Silencer and Resistance Bomber for Christmas from my wife who doesn’t know any better to understand she’s blowing $20+ more than she should be on those.

Thank goodness she has yet to realize I asked for what she knows as “the more expensive one with two ships I got you last Christmas” just for harpoon missiles.

You still look at the price tag?

Wait...

You can use human relationships to acquire spaceships?
