So do I have the timing correct on this:

  • Roll 1 defense die, call 0 with C-3PO, get 0, add 1 evade
  • Re-roll the blank with Lone Wolf get an evade
  • Use the evade from the title
  • 1 green die = 3 evade results

Best case scenario, that is how it works.

Rey and Finn and title and C3-PO

Call one evade.
Roll the evade (now you have two successes)
Add Finn.
Re-roll into an evade (That's three)
Spend evade token (That's four)

Seen it happen and it generates more salt than the entire surface of Crait. Especially if it was a missile. .

it's beautiful.

was attempting Fan Han/Miranda vs one of our best community members last night and his upcoming tournament list. His list is pretty nasty.

1) I need way more reps in with Miranda before I can bring her to a tournament. I served her up on a platter. Got off my harpoons. but it didn't matter. She dead

2) Han was tanky, but couldn't put through much damage. Assaj and Han race car'd around the board sitting at R3 every turn and every other turn a damage or two was put through on each. I lost the game of attrition. We did two laps I think. It was actually fun!

3) Not enough ways for Han to mod dice, especially if he keeps taking evades. So he's not dealing damage, but he's not taking any either. At least not vs PTL Assaj.

So I'm thinking of doing some changes because I find I really need to push damage through, and the damage mitigation worked very well. This comes down to Han's wingman being someone that can work independently.... This is probably going to be my regional list (regional is mid Jan for me).

Rey (2)

If you should go for this list, switch to PS8 Poe + VI for the exact same result for 99p. ;)

I know The fire power is missing but Jake is actually pretty good wingman in terms of drawing fire

Drop comm relay down to Primed Thrusters and pick up autothrusters.

How about this wingman?

Hey all, just throwing my two cents into the mix. I've been playing Han/Jake since Gencon with decent results. My list is as follows.

Han Solo (46)

Expertise (4)

Cruise Missile (3)

C3P0 (3)

R2D2 (4)

Engine Upgrade (4)

Falcon title: Evade (1)

65pts

Jake Farrell (24)

Push the Limits (3)

Veteran Instincts (1)

Cruise Missile (3)

Autothrusters (2)

A-Wing Test pilot (0)

33pts

98pts total for the pair. Ol' Han brushes off 3 damage a turn. If you can get your opponent to one ship, it's basically GG.
