Played 3 games today with Poetensityamd Super Dash vs Emon with Bomblettes and 2 thug life Y's. Won the first lost the 2nd 2. Had a great time all round.
Well, I am in
From my perspective, Guns for Hire will be the culmination of all that I have hoped for since I got into the game.
I'm in.
Been working lots of nights and weekends lately (that's in addition to the normal day shifts :P), so I haven't had time to play much over the past several months. I'm still going to see how many games I can lose at GenCon though. No idea what I'm flying, but I'm sure it'll be fun. And I'll get a participation prize! Woot!

German's didn't bomb Pearl Harbor, the Japanese did.
Other than that I totally agree with everyone. This is a great game

I love that I play in a community that values fun over new meta crap. Sure there is still a few of the new ships out and about, but less and less every week as the players find how boring and unfun it is to play those ships. Everyone would rather just fly what they want to fly. My games last night:
Fenn/Genesis Red/Nym vs Wedge/Wes/Rex/Sabine -- I flew Rebels, lost all, but still put healthy damage through. Genesis Red and Fenn left the game with 1 hull each remaining. I made some bad mistakes splitting up trying to pincer with each pairing, but they died.
Vessery/Omega Leader/Quickdraw vs Jess/Green Sq/Green Sq/Jan Ors -- I flew rebels, this was a tinker version of my usual squad. First joust went as expected, but I wasn't able to recover before Quickdraw tore me apart. Vessery died.
Dash/Nym vs Jess/GSP/GSP/Jan -- my usual Jess list. tabled Dash/Nym. I charged Nym HARD, bumped him with an A-Wing, then melted him in one round of combat. Dash tried to escape but he didn't last long.
Leechos/N'Dru/OldT/Fenn vs Jess/GSP/GSP/Jan -- OldT decided to see what R1 was like in a joust vs Jess/GSP and he got axed by 7 red dice with full mods. Fenn then decided to GTFO, but I blocked him and hit him with 6 dice the next turn (after he got snap/juked once) but not before Fenn decimated Jan. Then it was cleanup vs the Z's. They almost got Jess due to bad dice (R3 defensive blanks x2 on Jess).
QD/OL/Palp Shuttle - Jess/GSP/GSP/Jan - this was over on turn 3 when he turned into my formation and lost OL on the snapshot, then Jess threw 7 dice at QD.
Where's the meta?! I counted 3 Nyms last night, no wookies, and no aggressors. Lots of Intensity Poe. The local meta is fun and happy!
As with everything in life; you get out what you put in.
You wanna fly meta you fly meta, you wanna fly 100/6 till you eyes bleed you do it, tournaments i got yo back son, you there you wanna play HOTAC go for it, how about some EPIC.
There is so many ways to play this game. enjoy and don't put a format down because you don't like it, that how i view it.
Edited by the1hodgyI'll still play X-wing in non tournament/campaign/fun little scenarios, but i'm back at 40k now GW have for the most part cleaned their act up.
