Happy Friday

By Cubanboy, in X-Wing

Hello and Happy Friday,

What is the craziest dice streak you have had in X-wing?

Welcome to Friday the weekend is here shortly.

So far I still mostly just play with one friend, so not often enough to get too crazy.

1e Norra rolling a perfect round—I’m talking three natural crits and natural evades the whole round—is my highlight so far.

But with a work schedule change, I should be able to make it to a LGS to play more often soon!

Happy Friday. I didn't get to play any X-wing as everyone went to another store to practice for the Krayt Cup. :(

Last night consecutive rolls for various attacks and defence, in total 10 dice were rolled... all natural blanks. Honestly I felt like tipping the table over 😂 I’ve never had such a poor streak of luck. I suppose I was playing First Order so them being blown out of the sky is thematic. Back to Imperials next week I think.

Happy Friday! (Although work weekend for me)

Sonny Bounder, actually getting the 4 crits together. That was glorious.

I had Palob (With Lando crew) survive a round of rolling nothing but blanks before rerolling into evades.

And unrelated but does anyone know what the ‘Quickbuild Missions’ in the Wave 2 kit are? There is supposed to be an event for it tonight at my LGS but the owner keeps dodging all our questions about what things we need, just answering with saying things like lost shields or range 0...

One of the LGS around here definitely tried running the wave one Quickbuild event when Wave 2 dropped. So we got the big Iden/Thane/Fang quickbuild cards, and we were supposed to be playing with only Wave-2 products. He was uh... very confused about the event, to say the least. (There weren’t a ton of us, we just played whatever, mostly.)

This article should have your answers, though.

It answers my questions as to what the missions are; thank you!

The real issue now is the LGS owner saying its a Quickbuild Event but that “you can use your normal event” squad.

Played a game at a friends last month. Flew Han, Fenn, and Palob. Fenn Rau could not roll blanks for anything on any roll.

Really made Soontir sad when he took two hits at range 3 on turn 1, despite having a stealth device as well.

Hey, I've had that happen too! Sadly, it only removed a couple of shields... So glad for the Sunny buff... no longer once a turn. Now I can add a blank to all my defense rolls! Statistically improbable, but I think Sunny actually has the potential for scoring one of the hardest hits in the games... load her up with an Advanced Proton Torp, roll all blanks.... add a blank... use the target lock, roll all hits(or crits) and add one of those too. 7 hits!

I don't keep track of my dice streaks, I just know they happen. I can go an entire game rolling what seems to be only hits and crits, and then the next game feels like nothing but blanks.

Green dice I just count on being blank, anything else is bonus.

Wow what a bunch of jerks,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

One of the few times I've run a 3 ship list (Serrisu, Old T and Guri), rolled paint 4 rounds straight on greens and reds... My bud took my dice cup away after the third green paint roll on the fourth round of the streak and I rolled paint again. After that 4 round streak, dice cup or not, I was fortunate to get one hit/crit or evade per roll, ended up loosing that match (didn't focus fire with all 3 early enough and when I did I wasn't getting the rolls to make a difference).

Happy Friday! So my opponent, 1 round rolls 10 blank evade dice in total . Next round one of his ships rolls 7 evades in total. we were both fuming, was a good game. 116-120 points
