Enemy of my Enemy HOTAC epic mission!

By Refugeanoth, in X-Wing

The Enemy of my Enemy: Irregular squadron made a huge revelation from the information gathered against the nefarious droid bounty hunter IG-88, with the reluctant assistance of the imperial members of Widowmaker Squadron. They were able to upload the data cores stored aboard a rebel transport into a sliced droid factory platform that revealed the plans the evil droid has in store... Complete galactic extermination of all organic lifeforms in a Galaxy-wide droid revolution! Only together can the Rebellion and the Empire hope to survive the coming storm, but is it already too late for the meatbags to overcome the mental metal menace? Find out next time with the Aturi Irregulars!

Thank you dude!

What madness is this?!

Go to say, I'm a little envious over here.

The best kind :P I wish there was a way to bring people in on how much fun this stuff is. We had a blast in this mission!

Very thematic with the old tales of the bounty hunters legends. And the whole set up looks amazing.

This is the kind of stuff I could only dream of being a part of.

Are those... Candies?

Thanks! Loved that book and have always wanted to incorporate ig88's arc into my campaign.

That transport needs to roll over more. It looks a bit sunburned on just the one side.

Looks like a lot of fun.

So... as the data cores were succesfully uploaded their physical representation was downloaded into stomaches?

I see a tickle monster as reinforcement ready at a nearby jump point. What were its values? ;)

There's a .... WHY IS THERE A FREEDOM GUNDAM?

No ship token either. What kind or witchcraft is this?!!

Was someone running seismic torp? What's the deal with crossed out rocks?

All data cores were consumed at the end of the night to preserve their information from prying imperial eyes :P

Because we like to party and go fast and loose with the whole shared sci-fi universe idea lol

Leaves the bases open to write fun stuff on them from mission to mission and we have all the pertinent information on our pilot sheets anyways!

The asteroids were blocking the arrival of the rebel transport and were riddled with buzz droids, so each ship had 2 seismic torpedoes on top of their normal armament for this mission only and needed to coordinate attacks with the tie hunters and other ion cannon equipped ships on our side to disable the buzz droids and clear a path for the transport. This was all being done while long range turbolasers bombarded us and dozens of vulture droids harassed us with the help of a pair of enhanced ig2000's

You know you've accomplished something amazing when Jim approves your work.

@heychadwick think you can get this guy on the podcast sometime? Really would be interesting to hear how he comes up with all this and what his tricks and tips for casual gamers may be.

I'd be more than happy to share my experiences with hotac and mission design or anything else!

Yes, I think I can see if I can set something up.

There's a whole FB group that uses X-Wing rules, but 1/220 scale Mobile Suits. It looks pretty cool.
