I wrote a detailed blog article about my 3-part Battle of Scarif custom scenario for Friday Night X-wing

By weisguy119, in X-Wing Epic Play

Super cool! Looks like so much fun.

Freaking Cool!

That looks AWESOME

Looks fantastic. As an Armada+X-wing player I think that it would be awesome to play the main battle using Armada. Then play the a smaller detail scenarios using X-wing.

Shield Gate and garrison Tie fighters

2xISD

vs

MC-75 Profundity with Raddus

3-4 Nebulon B

4-5 CR-90

a few Hammerheads

some GR-45 flotillas

a boatload of X and Y squads

VCX Hera

(Or even go full ***** and play the ground battle with using Legion and the new Jyn Erso and commando expansions)

Really nice

I suppose this might have completed your rebel armada:

I've seen your Hammerhead Corvette and I'm jealous. Excellent work! I couldn't find a 3D print of the Rogue One Hammerhead when I designed this scenario, so I went with the CR12 and had it painted to look like the Lightmaker.

I'm still holding out hope for an official FFG Hammerhead. I now have a TIE Reaper to add to this scenario, if I ever run it again. I tend to design these things, play test them, and move on to my next project.

Personally, I prefer the scale of X-wing Miniatures over Armada's a nd have absolutely zero interest in Legion.

Somebody did blend Armada with XWM in this awesome setup, though:

Looks Great! I ironically Also like the X-wing scale better, but by far prefer Armada from a gaming Perspective - so i play Them both!

It was more the idea that Armada would capture the scale of the battle better

Hi

This one has been done with scratch built technics, so I dare I do not have any copy of it, but mi idea is to make another hammerhead, (I have to recognice the ones from rebels rather than the one modified version from Rogue One).

During the manufacture of the next one I want to complete the diagrams I had made about it so it should be easier to make more replicas of it.

As soon as I have more news I’ll keep you informed about (in case you want a replica).

I'd be interested. Please, keep me informed.

Doing it in Armada scale would be too easy, though. I like to do things the hard way. Lol

I like to think of mine as a zoomed in version of the battle.
