YEEEAAA.. Onto testing of my Last of the 14 new missions i've wrote..

This has been a long way coming.

This mission is played on a 3x3 Planet map, with a 12 turn time limit, in Hostile terrain.

In the center of the planet, there is a large hexagonal command unit, with a command center, a shield generator and sensor/comm dish on top of it. Attached to it are 3 end caps, and one feed through module, leading to a small command triangle and a hanger bay. THERE IS ONLY ONE HANGER, unlike prior missions with imperial bases.

There is one fuel tank on End cap 1, a Turret on End cap 2. At three to 5 players, put a 2 ^nd turret on the last end-cap, and if there's six players, put a third turret out on the feed through module. At the higher PS averages, turret 1, and maybe even turret 2, gets upgraded from a regular, to a heavy.

Since ALL the 3 player testings are at PS6 average, Turret 1 only is upgraded to a heavy, turret 2 is normal.

All the rebels come in on the top left corner, with a range 2 'arc, that they can start in, and its Also their escape point.

NOTE, if in Mission 2, any defender from Gamma or Aggressor from Jericho squad escaped, the imperials will be “ON alert!”. So far, only play-test 4 and 5 at Five ships, did this occur in.

The YT-2400 uses AI pilot card #5, starting at the “Wild Space fringer (PS2)” line, with a Shield upgrade and Mangler Cannon.

If the group's PS is 5+, upgrade to Elite PS 3, Rebel special forces team leader line, with the EPT Expert Handling, and Outrider Title.

If the group's PS is 7+, upgrade to Elite PS 5, with the named Pilot Leebo , and Ion pulse missile.

If the group's PS is 9+, upgrade to the Elite PS 7 line, with the EPT Opportunist.

Once the YT docks on the base's hanger bay, each round roll 2 attack dice, it takes TWO hits (or one Critical) to advance into the Feed-through module, then Two more hits in the following round to advance to the Central hub. ONCE THERE, it requires THREE hits (or two critical hits) to GET all the prisoners. Once the rebel troops move out of the hanger, into the feed-through module, the YT may start moving again.

Imperial Forces:

Starting out-

Alpha and Beta squad - Two tie fighters each squad. Alpha in Patrol box B, Beta out of Hanger 1. As both are in 'patrol' AI, they move only 2 (1d6 roll, even = 2, odd = 3) or 3 straight moves till fired upon OR the rebels get in range 2 of them.

Reinforcements-

Charlie – Turn 2 (if alerted) or Turn 3 (if not altered), two tie bombers. (AS no running has a PS of 8 or higher average, there is no elite)

Delta – Turn 3 (If alerted) or turn 4 (if not alerted) coming out of hyperspace, one tie defender.

ADDED IF ALERTED – Falcon – One tie bomber. Out of hanger 3. On turn 3.

Gamma – Turn 6, One Tie advance prototype, upped to an elite for ALL runnings. Out of hyperspace.

Sigma – Turn 6 also. One Decimator, with +2 shield. Also coming out of hyperspace.

Falcon and Charlie squad's Strike AI has them going after the YT TILL it has docked, then shifts to targeting the central hub. Gamma squad's Strike AI has them Prioritizing rebel fighters, in order of A-wings, then X-wings, then Y-wings and lastly B-wings. They will ONLY SHOOT the YT, if its at range 1 AND they have no shot on a rebel fighter. If they have no shot on their PRIORITY Target, they can shoot OTHER rebel fighters at range 1 or 2. While Delta's defender has a reversed priority order. Starting with Y wings first, then B wings, then X wings and lastly A-wings... They can shoot the YT if its at range 1, EVEN IF they have a range 2 or 3 shot on their priority fighter target, OR at range 1 or 2, if they have NO shot on any rebel fighters!!

Sigma's Decimator, will ALWAYS try to fire its PRIMARY attack, on the rebel fighters ONLY. The secondary attack, and its “Agent Kallus” ability WILL be used on the freighter. IF ITS docked, it instead shoots the command hub. Any ordinance it gains, are ONLY usable against rebel B or Y-wings.

Mission Goals:

Destroy or disable the shield generator, and Sensor/comm dish

Escort the YT, till it docks, and Protect it and the base.

Hold the base till the end of the time limit.

Penalty – IF the YT is destroyed, everyone loses their most expensive ordinance. IF THE BASE gets destroyed once taken, everyone loses their most expensive NON Ordinance upgrade.

For the rebels.

Any rebel at range 1 of the YT or the base, may perform protect actions on it. IF they wish, they can NOT DESTROY any turrets, and hope the troops take the facility over, so they can control those turrets, but that is a RISK.

Ship assignments for 3 players ( i am KEEPING exactly the same assignments as before).

1st running. A-wing Drogo, X-wing Reign-fire, and B-wing Grood (PS averages to 6)

2nd running. A-wing Gruff, X-wing Tin-bok and B-wing Shunt (PS averages to 6)

3rd running. A-wing Blue-thunder, X-wing Chaka and Y-wing Dozer (PS averages to 6)

4th running. X-wing Squeaky, B-wing Wilt and Y-wing Unca (PS averages to 7), so both the Decimator and YT get upped, and both turrets are heavy.

5th running. A-wing Red-bull, Y-wing Cmoz and B-wing Spot (PS averages to 6)

6th running. X-wing Jinn, and the Y-wings of Imo-thep and Crack. (PS averages to 6)

NOTE: NOT ONE of the runnings at 3 players, did anyone in Gamma or Jericho squadron get to escape, so in no runnings, will the empire be 'on alert'.

Also, since the base converts to rebel control IF they take it, and that includes taking over any turbolaser turrets, i MAY have to remove that as one of the primary goals..

Made TWO quick edits.

1) The YT can start moving again, ONCE the troops advance out of the hanger bay.

2) the Turrets ONLY target fighters, not the freighter. ALSO re-located where turret 1 is.

1 ^st testing at 3 ships

Using the A-wing Drogo (PS is now 6, Ion pulse missile with Extra munitions, Predator and Outmaneuver EPTS), the B-wing Grood (PS is now 7, takes his Advance proton torpedo and plasma torpedo, has PTL EPT and the named pilot of Nera Dantels) , and the X-wing of Reign-fire (PS is now 5 has a plasma torpedo with guidance chip, and the EPT of Marksmanship, and the named pilot of Thane Kyrell). Grood has Squad leader. Aims himself towards Alpha squad, while both Reign-fire and Drogo aim towards Beta squad and the hanger bay.

Round 1. Grood plans a 3 straight, 4 straight for both Reign-fire and Drogo.

Alpha squad both straights 3 and evades. Beta squad also does a 3 straight and evade.

The rebels move. Grood locks Alpha-1, Reign-fire locks Beta-1, while Drogo locks Beta-2. Grood then uses PTL to take a focus, and takes a stress. His plasma torpedo then hits Alpha-1, dealing it a Stunned pilot critical. Drogo's first Ion pulse missile, misses. Reign's plasma torpedo kills Beta-1. XP 1 Grood, 2 Reign, 0 Drogo. Grood then uses FCS to re-lock Alpha-1.

Alpha-1 and 2 have no shots. Beta-2 misses Drogo. Turret 1 and 2 have no shots. Reign uses Thane to lock Beta-2

Round 2. The YT appears, plans a 3 straight, going slightly along the north map side. 3 turn right Drogo, 1 bank left Grood to clear his stress, 1 bank right Reign.

Alpha-1 does a bank 2 left, focuses. Alpha-2 turns 2 left, focuses. Beta-2 banks 3 left, barrel rolls right to get out of Drogo's arc.

The rebels move. ALL take a focus, after Grood clears his stress. His shot kills off Alpha-1, Drogo deals 1 hull to Alpha-2, and Reign blows up Beta-2. The YT's mangler cannon, finishes off Alpha-2 with a range 3 smacking!. XP shifts up to 3 for Grood, 1 now for Drogo, and 4 for Reign.

No turret has shot.

Round 3. Charlie's two bombers come out of the hanger bay. The YT plans a 2 bank left to keep away from them, 2 bank right for Reign, 1 turn left Drogo, and 3 straight Grood.

Charlie 1 and 2 straight 2, Charlie-1 locks the YT and focuses, Charlie 2 is just out of range to lock, but focuses too.

The rebels move. Reign activates marksmanship, the YT focuses, Drogo boosts left, Grood focuses Grood's HLC misses. Uses FCS to lock Charlie 1. Drogo deals 1 hull to Charlie-1. Reign's smacks it for 3 more hull and a Weapons malfunction critical. The YT misses. XP still is 3 for Grood, 2 now on Drogo and 5 for Reign.

Charlie-1 then fires his assault missile, taking one shield off the YT, and one off of Reign, neutering his Stealth device. Charlie-2 takes a 2 ^nd shield. Reign uses Thane to lock Charlie-2.

Turret 1, hits Grood taking 2 of his shields, Turret 2 misses Drogo.

Round 4. Delta's defender shows up down on tab 2. Aimed towards Grood. Reign plans a 4k, 2 turn right for Grood, 1 turn right Drogo, 3 turn right for the YT.

Delta-1 straights 4, locks Grood and focuses. Charlie-1 re-locks the YT, straights 2 bumping into Reign, doesn't get to clear his weapons malfunction critical. Charlie-2 bumps the YT doing a 4 straight. Cannot lock or act.

The rebels move. The YT locks Charlie-2. Reign takes a stress, Drogo evades, and Grood barrel rolls, then uses PTL to focus. Takes a stress. His HLC then takes 1 shield off of Delta-1. Uses FCS to lock it. Drogo then deals 3 hull to turret 2. Reign misses. The YT deals only 1 hull to Charlie-2 (injured pilot critical, but it has no EPTS so it becomes 1 hull). Grood shifts up to 4xp, 5 still on Reign, and 2 still for Drogo.

Neither Charlie-1 or 2 have shots. Grood loses 3 more shields to Delta-1. Turret 1 and 2 shoot Drogo, but both miss.

Round 5. Grood plans a 1 bank right, to clear his stress, 3 straight for the YT, 2 straight for Reign to clear his stress and 1 turn right Drogo. Drogo uses Roark to boost the YT this round.

Delta-1 re-locks Grood, then bumps him doing a 2 straight. No action. Charlie-1 and 2 both lock the YT. Charlie-1 then hard turns 2 right, can't clear his weapons crit. Charlie-2 likewise does a 2 hard turn right. No action.

The rebels move. Reign clears his stress and activates marksmanship, Drogo focuses, Grood has no shot, but cleared his stress, so barrel rolls right. The YT focuses. He finishes off Charlie-1. Reign deals 2 hull and a munitions failure to Charlie-2, taking his Assault missile. Drogo hacks the last two shields off Delta-1. Grood stays at 4xp, 6 now for Reign and 3 for Drogo.

Charlie-2 has no shot. Delta-1 takes a pot shot on Drogo but misses. Turret 1 hits Drogo, taking one shield and his stealth device, Turret 2 misses him.

Round 6. The Decimator shows up on Tab 2. Gamma-1 shows up on Tab 3, facing Drogo.

The YT plans a 2 turn right, will dock. 2 bank right Reign, 2 straight for Drogo and 2k for Grood (Will stress).

Delta-1 re-locks Grood, then does a white 4k and focuses. Charlie-2 re-locks the YT, then bard turns 2 right again.

The YT docks.

The Decimator locks Grood, Turns 3 left and focuses.

Reign-fire moves, has no arc on Charlie-2, so focuses.

Gamma-1 straights 4, not in range to lock Drogo so boosts forward.

Grood takes his stress, and Drogo locks the Decimator. Fires his 2 ^nd ion pulse missile, stripping a shield off the Decimator and deals it 2 ion tokens (So its ioned for 1 round. Grood tore 3 other shields off it.

Gamma-1 no shot.

Reign-fire, no shot.

The Decimator hits Grood dealing him a damaged cockpit critical. OUCH. His 2 ^nd shot misses Drogo thanks to having spent his focus in defense!

Charlie-2 takes a 3 ^rd shield off the YT. Turret 1 takes a 2 ^nd shield off Drogo, Turret 2 misses. Delta-1 has no arc on Grood. Troops now offloaded into the Hanger bay.

XP shifts up to 5 now for Grood, 4 for Drogo and 6 still on Reign.

Round 7. 2 bank left for Drogo, 2 turn right Reign, and 2 straight for Grood to clear his stress.

Grood clears stress and barrel rolls right

Delta-1 re-locks him then straights 5 bumping into the Decimator. No action.

Charlie-2 straights 2, barrel rolls right. Still doesn't get an arc or range to shoot the Central hub.

Reign moves, again has no shot, but locks Charlie-2 anyway.

The Decimator locks Grood again, then straights 1, clearing his ions off. Focuses.

Drogo bumps into Delta-1.

Gamma-1 straights 3 after locking Drogo, has to boost right, but still gets no arc to shoot him. Takes a range 2 shot on Grood, dealing him a 2 ^nd hull. The Decimator then kills Grood off.. BOO.

Drogo takes the last 2 shields off the Decimator, and deals it 1 hull.

Reign again has no shot. XP stays 6 for him, 5 for Grood, and Drogo now shifts up to 5.

Turret 1 and 2 no shot, same for Charlie-2 and Delta-1. The Decimator again misses Drogo. Has no 2 ^nd shot.

The Troops roll only 1 hit, failing to advance from the Hanger bay.

Round 8. Reign plans a 3 turn right, same Drogo.

Delta-1 does another white 4k, not in range to lock Reign. Focuses. Charlie-2 banks 3 right bumps the YT. The Decimator locks Drogo, then banks 1 left and focuses.

Reign moves and focuses.

Gamma-1 locks Drogo, straights 1 then barrel rolls right to get an arc to shoot him.

Drogo takes an evade.

Gamma-1 no shot.

Drogo deals a blinded pilot critical to the Decimator. This will make it auto-miss its first shot and it won't have a 2 ^nd .

Reign-fire kills Charlie-2. Shifts him up to 7xp, 6 for Drogo, 5 still for Grood.

Delta-1 no shot, and same for Turret 1. Turret 2 misses Reign.

The Troops get 1 more hit, advance from the hanger bay into the End-cap. The YT can now move.

Round 9. The YT plans a 2 bank right, 3 turn right Reign, 5k Drogo.

Delta-1 straights 5, has no range to lock Reign, so barrel rolls left.

The YT moves and locks the Decimator. Reign-fire moves and activates marksmanship.

Gamma-1 re-locks Drogo, then turns 2 right and boosts right. Still has no arc to shoot him.

Drogo moves, taking his stress.

Gamma-1 has no shot. Drogo deals a 3 ^rd hull to the Decimator, and a Damaged sensor array critical. Reign makes it 4 hull, and a Console fire critical (effectively being 6 hull).

The Decimator finally hits Drogo, taking his 2 ^nd shield off, and takes a 2 ^nd from Reign with his second shot.

The YT adds 3 more hull and a Damaged Engine critical to the Decimator, effectively making it have 7 hull and 3 criticals. YAY. XP now 8 for Reign and 7 for Drogo.

Then Delta-1 takes the last two shields off the YT with a range 1 smacking (had no shot on Reign). Reign uses Thane to re-lock the Decimator.

Turret 1 misses Drogo, Turret 2 misses Reign.

The Rebel troops roll 3 hits (one crit and 1 hit) and advance from the feed-through module into the central hub.

Round 10. The YT plans a 2 bank left, 2 straight for Drogo to clear stress and 1 bank right for Reign (who Drogo boosts to PS 12 via Roark ).

Delta-1 straights 4 bumps into the YT. No lock of Reign and no action.

The YT moves, locking Delta-1.

The Decimator banks 2 left, flips over his console fire critical. Now at 8 hull and 2 criticals. Could not lock due to still having his damaged sensor array. Gamma1 banks 2 right, locks Drogo then boosts right.

Drogo moves, boosts left getting out of Gamma-1's arc. No shot. Reign moves and Activates marksmanship again. Kills off the Decimator, taking him up to 12xp, 8 for Drogo and 6 for Grood (it was elite!).

Gamma-1 misses Reign, but had it a focus, he'd have been smacked for 3 hits!!

Tye YT then deals a Minor hull breach critical to Delta-1. Delta-1 misses Reign. Turret 1 also misses him, Turret 2 however takes his last shield off.

The rebels take over the command center, the base shifts over to their control. Now they must survive the last 2 rounds.

Round 11. After the rebels move, Drogo deals a 2 ^nd hull to Delta-1, Reign misses and so does the YT. Reign then gets 2 hull from Delta-1 raking fire over him. Delta-1 then dies to Turret 2 hitting him. Turret 1 had no shot, and neither did Gamma-1. Drogo shifted up to 9xp. Reign stayed at 12.

Round 12. After all movement was performed, Reign fire gets sent EVA by Gamma-1. IT then loses both shields to Drogo and the YT hitting it.. Both Turret 1 and 2 miss it...

I had to make an on-the fly change up, adding in that the YT can now move once the troops get out of the Hanger bay, and the turrets do NOT SHOOT IT, only fighters.

But man was it a close victory..

Endin XP was 9 for Drogo, 6 for Grood and 12 for Reign. That makes 27 total xp, divided by 3 gives 9xp average.

1 ^st win...

So far am up to the 5th round in testing of the 2nd play-test, and things are NOT looking good for our rebels.. the B-wing Shunt is out of shields and has 1 hull, and both the A-wing Gruff and X-wing Bok are down to 1 shield each, and the YT is out of shields.. AND ONLY ONE imperial has been destroyed.

Shunt just has not been able to hit to safe his life (first roll with his HLC came up 2 blanks and 2 focuses vs THREE evades, spending his lock turned it into 2 hits 1 focus and one blank vs those 3 evades. 2nd shot with his main guns (he was too close for his cannon), was 3 focuses vs two evades and a focus. 3rd round, he had two hits and a focus, but the enemy had two evades... GRRR..

The dice hate me today.

2 ^nd test at 3 ships.

Using the A-wing Gruff (PS now 7, as an assault missile), the B-wing Shunt (Takes his proton torpedo and proton bomb, with extra munitions) and the X-wing Tin-bok (PS also 6, takes his plasma torpedo with extra munitions). HE and Gruff line up towards the Hanger, Shunt towards Alpha.

Round 1. Gruff plans a 5 straight, 4 straight for Tin-bok and 3 straight for Shunt.

Alpha-1 and 2 straight 2 and evade. Beta 1 and 2 straight 3 and evade.

The rebels move. Shunt locks Alpha-1, Gruff locks Beta-2, Tin-bok boosts forward via Sabine then locks Beta-1. Gruff's assault missile misses, due to the evade token of Beta-2, but his Saturation Salvo EPT kicks in, dealing 1 hull to Beta-1. Tin-bok then kills it off. Shunt HLC misses. XP 0 Shunt, 1 Gruff, 2 Tin-bok.

Neither in Alpha have shots. Beta-2 misses Gruff. Turret 1 shoots but misses Tin-bok, Turret 2 hits him for two shields and his stealth device.. OUCH.

Round 2. The YT comes in, plans a 4 straight. Tin-bok plans a 3 bank right, 1 straight Shunt, and 3k for Gruff (will stress).

Alpha-1 and 2 bank 2 left, both barrel roll right, keeping their arc, but getting out of Shunt's arc.

Beta-2 banks 3 left, barrel rolls right out of Gruff's arc.

The rebels move. The YT locks Alpha-1, Shunt barrel rolls left getting Alpha-1 back in arc, Gruff takes his stress, and Tin-bok uses Sabine , barrel rolls right, moves then locks Turret 2 and boosts left to get too close for either turret to shoot him. He then deals 4 hull damage to Turret 2, 1 off destroying it. Gruff deals 2 hull to Beta-2. Shunt misses again. The YT deals a damaged engine critical to Alpha-1.

XP now 2 still for Tin-bok, 0 still for Shunt, and 2 now for Gruff.

Alpha-1 misses the YT, Beta-2 misses Shunt, Alpha-2 misses Gruff. Turret 1 and 2 also miss Gruff.

Round 3. Charlie's bombers come out of the hanger bay. The YT plans a 3 bank left, 2 turn left Shunt, 2 turn right Tin-bok, and 2 bank left for Gruff to clear stress.

Alpha-1 banks 2 left, bumping into the YT. Alpha-2 bumps into him, trying a 3 bank left. Beta-2 does a 3k. Charlie-1 and 2 lock onto the YT, then straight 2 and both barrel roll left to get arc to shoot it.

The rebels move. The YT bumps Charlie-1. Shunt bumps Alpha-2, no action. Gruff clears his stress, protects the YT. Tin-bok barrel rolls left, moves, locks Turret 1 and boosts forward via droid. Destroys the turret with 3 straight crit hit rolls.. Shifts up to 3xp. Gruff then misses Alpha-2. Shunt finally hits, dealing 2 hull to Charlie-2. The YT hits it for a 3 ^rd hull and a damaged sensor array critical.

Charlie-1 misses Gruff, Charlie-2 takes 2 shields off the YT. Alpha-1 and 2, and Beta-2 no shots.

Turret 2 misses Shunt.

Shunt now at 1xp, 2 still on Gruff, 3 for Bok.

Round 4. Delta's defender shows up on Tab 1. Faces Shunt.

Shunt plans a 2k, 2 straight for the YT (one round off docking). 3 turn right for Tin-bok, 1 turn right for Gruff.

Alpha-1 does a 4k. Alpha-2 does a 4k as well, but as he was angled differently than Alpha-1, he doesn't bump him. Beta-2 does a 3k. Delta-1 locks Shunt, then straights 5 and focuses. Charlie-1 is bumping the YT so can't lock it, does a 5k. Charlie-2 bumps into the YT doing a 3 turn left. Cannot clear his sensor array critical.

The Rebels move. The YT locks Turret 2. Shunt drops his first proton bomb, hitting Delta-1 for one of his shields (munitions failure critical, but it has no munitions to remove, so becomes just one hit, and uses Sabine to make it a 2 ^nd shield gone). Then bumps into Charlie-2. Tin-bok barrel rolls left, moves, locks Delta-1. Gruff boosts left, then totally whiffs his shot vs Alpha-1 (three evades vs 1 hit and 2 blanks. BOO). Tin-bok's first plasma torpedo strips the last shield and gives 1 hull to Delta-1, shifting him to 4xp. Shunt then has no shot, but still gained 1xp from his bomb. The YT then destroys turret 2.

Charlie-2 has no shot, Charlie-1 takes another shield off the YT. Alpha-1 misses Shunt, Alpha-2 however hits him taking his stealth device and his first shield. Beta-2 rakes 2 shields off Gruff and his stealth device. Delta-1 takes 2 more shields off Shunt..

Wow, things not looking good for our rebels.

Shunt now at 2xp, 2 still for Gruff, and 4 now for Tin-bok.

Round 5. The YT plans a bank 1 right, will dock. 3 bank right for Tin-bok, Shunt 2 straight to clear his stress, and a 3k for Gruff.

Alpha-1 banks 2 left, focuses. Alpha-1 turns 1 left, and focuses. Beta-2 bumps into Charlie-1 trying a 2 bank left. No action. Delta-1 re-locks Shunt, then bumps him doing a 5 straight. Charlie-1 locks the YT then straights 4 and focuses. Charlie-2 hard turns 2 left, cannot clear his sensor array critical.

The YT moves and docks. Tin-bok barrel rolls right, moves then locks Charlie-1, Gruff stresses. Shunt drops his 2 ^nd bomb, catching both Charlie-2 and Delta-1, then clears his stress and barrel rolls right and slightly forward, gaining a little more range on the defender. His bomb deals the defender a minor hull breach critical, and a damaged cockpit to the bomber, he uses Sabine to kill the Defender off, taking him up to 6xp. Gruff then stresses, and his shot misses again vs alpha-1. WOW he's sucking!!. Shunt has no shot. Tin-bok deals 4 hull to Charlie-1, not enough to stop it stripping 2 more shields off the YT. Alpha=1 takes Shunt's last shield. Alpha-2 and Beta-2 no shots.

Wow, things are going bad..

Shunt now at 6xp, Still 2 for Gruff, and 5 now for Tin-bok.

Round 6. The Decimator shows up on tab 2. Aims towards the base since the YT is already docked. Gamma's advance prototype, shows up on the north side on Tab 4. Aims himself towards Gruff.. Shunt plans a 2k, Tin-bok plans a 4k. Both will stress. Gruff plans a 4 straight, will clear stress.

Charlie 2 clears his sensor array critical, after going straight 2. Now at 4 hull and his damaged cockpit critical. Alpha-1 straights 5 and evades as has no shot. Alpha-2 turns 2 left, and focuses.

Beta-2 then misses Spot. Charlie-1 barely misses the YT (if it had a focus, it would have stripped 3 shields off it). Cmoz then loses 2 shields to Turret 1, and a 3 ^rd to Turret 2.

Round 4. Delta-1 shows up on tab 1. Aims self towards Cmoz.

Cmoz plans a 2 turn left, 1 bank right Spot to clear stress, 4 straight for the YT and 1 turn left for Red-bull.

Beta-2 turns 1 right but bumps Red-bull. Delta 1 straights 4, locks Cmoz and Focuses. Charlie-1 re-locks the YT then bumps him trying a 1 straight.

The rebels move. The YT locks Charlie-1.. Red-bull can't move due to where Beta-2 is. No action. Cmoz bumps into Charlie-1. No action. Spot barrel rolls left via Sabine , moves, clears stress then takes a focus due to his barrel rolling. Then he uses Squad leader to give an action to Cmoz who focuses. Spot's main guns then deals 2 hull to Charlie-1, and a stunned pilot critical hit. Cmoz totally whiffs the shot, declines to spend his focus token Red-bull finishes Charlie-1 off after smacking it for 2 more crits and a hull. The YT kills off Beta-2.

XP now 4 for Spot, 7 for Red-bull and 4 still on Cmoz.

Delta-1 Shoots Cmoz taking his last shield and deals him a minor hull breach. He's not going to be doing any stressed moves now!. Turret 1 takes a shield off Spot, Turret 2 misses.

Round 5. The YT plans a 1 bank left, will dock. 2 bank left Spot, 3k for Red-bull and a 2 turn left for Cmoz.

Delta-1 bumps into Red-bull doing another 4 straight, after re-locking Cmoz.

The rebels move. The YT docks. Red-bull takes a stress. Cmoz locks Delta-1, declines to boost via droid (so stays in range to use Wingman on Red-bull), and Spot moves and focuses. His main guns rip all three shields off the Defender. Cmoz hits him, spending his lock to do so, ionizing the defender, and dealing it 1 hull. Red-bull barely connects for a 2 ^nd hull. Red-bull now up to 8xp, 5xp on Spot and 5 for Cmoz.

The YT docks.

Delta-1 then strips a 2 ^nd shield off of Spot. A 3 ^rd comes off from Turret 2. Turret 1 misses.

Round 6. The Decimator shows up tab 2. Gamma-1 shows up on the North side on Tab 3. Aims itself towards Red-bull. The rebels plan a 3 straight for Spot, 5 straight for Red-bull and another 2 turn left for Cmoz.

Delta-1 fails to clear ion token, bumps into Spot. Re-locked Cmoz though. No action. The Decimator locks Spot, straights 3 and focuses.

Red-bull moves, and focuses. Gamma-1 straights 5, is just in range to lock Red-bull, so boosts forward.

Cmoz moves locks Delta-1 again and boosts left. Spot uses Sabine to barrel roll right, moves then focuses. His main guns shred 3 shields off the Decimator.

Red-bull loses one of his shields to Gamma-1's homing missile, Cmoz takes a 2 ^nd hull damage due to it's Ruthlessness EPT.

Cmoz then kills off the Defender. This takes him up to 8xp. Spot has 6xp now. Red-bull takes 3 more shields off the Decimator. Now at 9xp.

The Decimator's first shot, rips the 4 ^th and 5 ^th shield off Spot, not in range to get the 2 ^nd shot off on the central hub.

Turret 1 takes Red-bull's last shield, while Turret 2 misses.

The troops roll a crit, and advance out of the hanger bay into the Feed-through module. The YT can move next round.

Round 7, the YT plans a 1 turn left. 2K for Spot, 3 bank right for Cmoz and a 5k for Red-bull. Both him and Spot will take a stress.

The YT moves and locks Gamma-1.

The Decimator re-locks Spot, then banks 2 left, bumping into Red-bull.

Red-bull takes his stress.

Gamma-1 straights 3, doesn't get in range to re-lock Red-bull, boosts forward.

Cmoz moves locks the Decimator. Spot barrel rolls right, then stresses. His shot deals a damaged sensor array critical to the decimator, and 1 hull.

Gamma-1's main guns miss Red-bull. Cmoz deals a 2 ^nd hull to the Decimator, Red-bull makes it 4 hull. The Decimator strips off Spot's last shield. It's 2 ^nd shot misses the Central hub.

The YT strips one shield off Gamma-1.

Turret 1 misses Red-bull, turret 2 not in range. The rebel troops gain 1 hit towards moving into the Central hub.

XP now 10 for Red-bull, 7 for Spot and 9 for Cmoz. Cmoz used Wingman to remove Spot's stress.

Round 8. Spot plans a 2 straight, same for Red-bull to clear stress, 2 turn right for Cmoz. 3 turn left for the YT.

The YT moves. Locks the Decimator.

The Decimator turns 2 left, clears sensor array critical. Now at 5 hull.

Red-bull moves, clears stress and Takes an evade.

Gamma-1 re-locks Red-bull, straights 2 and focuses. Couldn't barrel roll or boost out of his arc while maintaining his own.

Cmoz moves, and locks Gamma-1, Spot barrel rolls left via Sabine moves and focuses. Adds 3 more damage to the Decimator bringing it up to 8 hull damage.

Gamma-1 then hulls Red-bull giving him an Injured Pilot critical. He now has to ignore his EPT and Named pilot (BOO).

Cmoz then strips the last shield off Gamma-1 and ions it once, though his lock got spent doing so. Red-bull adds 2 more hull damage to the Decimator.

The Decimator gives 2 hull damage to Spot (OUCH), its 2 ^nd shot is too far away from the central hub to get fired.

The YT kills the Decimator off. PHEW.. Xp now 11 for Red-bull, 8 for Spot and 10 for Cmoz.

Turret 1 and 2 connect, Red-bull sent EVA.

The rebel troops take the central hub.

Round 9, after the rebels move, Spot gets in the kill shot on Gamma-1. That increases him to 12xp, 11 for Spot and 12 for Red-bull. The rebels now are unopposed. It takes 2 more rounds till they secure the command center..

A solid rebel win but Spot was down to 1 hull left, and Cmoz was down to 3 left.. A CLOSE fought battle..

6 ^th and hopefully last test at 3 ships

Using the X-wing Jinn (PS now 8, plasma torpedo, outmaneuver and saturation salvo for EPTs), and the Y-wings Imo-thep (PS still 5, Goes with his ion turret, Predator ept, Proton bomb Proton torpedo), and Crack (PS 7, Proton torpedo and Proximity mine, Intimidation and saturation salvo EPT). PS averages to a 6 still. Only 1 upped Turret. Jinn lines up towards Alpha, both Y-wings towards Beta.

Round 1. Jinn plans a 4 straight, both Y-s plan a 3 bank right.

Alpha-1 and 2 both straight 2 and evade. Beta-1 and 2 both straight 3 and evade.

The rebels move. Imo-thep locks Beta-1, Crack locks Beta-2, while Jinn focuses, and via Jake boosts forward. His shot misses the fighter (two blanks and a focus vs two evades and a focus). Converts the focus into an evade via his R3 astromech. Crack's first proton torpedo blows Beta-2 out of the sky (two crits, two hits vs 2 blanks and one focus). Imo-thep's torpedo however, misses (two hits vs two evades). Torpedo wasted. XP 2 crack, 0 Jinn and Imo-thep.

Beta-1 shoots back at Crack, but misses, neither Alpha-1 or 2 have shots, same for both turrets.

Round 2. The YT appears. It plans a 4 straight, 1 bank left for Jinn, 2 straights for both Crack and Imo-thep.

Alpha-1 and 2 both turn 3 left and focus. This will cause Jinn to bump into Alpha-1 (Boo-hiss). Beta-1 turns 1 left and barrel rolls right to get out of Imo-thep's front guns.

The YT moves, locks Alpha-1. Jinn bumps Alpha-1, both Crack and Imo-thep lock Beta-1. Jinn's main guns miss Alpha-2, converts one focus roll to an evade token for self. Crack deals 2 hull to Beta-1, kill comes from Imo-thep's ion turret. XP 3 Crack, 2 Imo-thep and 0 still on Jinn. The YT then deals a direct hit critical to Alpha-1.

Alpha-1 takes a shield off the YT in return fire. Alpha-2 takes a shield off Jinn and neuters his Stealth device. Turret 1 takes a 2 ^nd shield, while Turret 2 hits Imo-thep taking one of his four shields and neuters his stealth device.

Round 3. Charlie shows up out of the hanger. The YT and both Y-wings plan 3 bank lefts, 2 turn left for Jinn.

Alpha-1 does a 3k, while Alpha-2 banks 2 left and barrel rolls left (and slightly to the rear) to gain more distance on the map edge.. Charlie-1 and 2 bank 3 left, lock the YT and both focus.

The rebels move. The YT and both Y-wings lock Charlie 1, while Jinn moves, takes a focus and Barrel rolls left, barely gaining arc to shoot, via Jake . Yet again, his dice fail him, but he takes another evade token via his R3. Crack deals 2 hull to Charlie 2 with his sync turret, Imo-thep makes it a 3 ^rd and an ion token, the YT adds a 4 ^th hit and a thrust control fire critical, making the bomber be at 5 hull, 1 ion and 1 stress token. XP now 4 for Crack, 3 for Imo-thep and 0 still on Jinn.

Neither Charlie has shot either on the YT or on Jinn. Alpha-1 misses Jinn. Alpha-2 no shot. Turret 1 takes a 2 ^nd shield off Imo-thep, Turret 2 misses.

Round 4. Delta-1 shows up on tab 3, heading towards Crack.

The YT plans a 4 straight, will dock. 3 turn left Imo-thep (will stress), 2 turn left Crack. 2 turn Right for Jinn.

Alpha-1 does another 4k, Alpha-2 turns 2 right, and barrel rolls right. Just out of arc to shoot Jinn. Delta-1 straights 4, locks Crack and focuses. Charlie-1 bleeds off his ion token, has no one to shoot, but can't act as he didn't clear his stress. Charlie-2 re-locks the YT, banks 1 left and barrel rolls left.

The YT moves, docks. Imo-thep drops his proton bomb, moves and takes his stress. Crack moves and locks Delta-1. Jinn moves and locks Charlie-2. Imo-thep's proton bomb explodes killing Charlie-1, and dealing a munitions failure critical to Charlie-2, taking its assault missile. Jinn's plasma torpedo then WHIFFS vs Charlie 2, which is a bad thing, as its at range 1 of the YT, so his Saturation Salvo EPT kicks in, and he unfortunately takes a 2 ^nd shield off the YT.. (CRAP). Crack then steals 2 shields off Delta-1, spent his lock to do so. Imo-thep's Ion turret takes the 3 ^rd shield and deals him an ion token. XP now 0 still for Jinn, 5 for Crack and 6 for Imo-thep.

The YT is docked.

Delta-1 strips two shields off Crack in return fire, and neuters his stealth device. Alpha-1 and Alpha-2 no shots, same for Charlie-2. Turret 1 takes the last shield off Jinn and deals 1 hull hit, while Turret 2 takes the third shield off Imo-thep.

Wow, our heroes are not doing too well.. Especially JINN!

Round 5. Crack will turn 2 left, 2 bank left for Imo-thep, and 4k for Jinn. Imo-thep will keep his stress, and Jinn will take a stress.

Alpha-1 turns right 1, focuses. Alpha-2 banks 3 right. No shot so evades. Delta-1 bumps into Crack after locking him. Did not bleed off his ion damage from Imo-thep. Charlie-2 turns 3 left, locks the central hub and focuses.

The rebels move. Imo-thep keeps stress, Jinn stresses and Crack re-locks Delta-1. Jinn kills Alpha-1 finally. Crack deals two crits to Delta 1, a Munition's failure (no ordinance so equates to 1 hull), and Weapons malfunction critical. Imo-thep's ion cannon makes it a 3 ^rd hull hit, destroying the defender.

XP shifts up to 2 for Jinn (YAY, he's now on the board), 6 for Crack and 9 for Imo-thep.

Charlie-2 barely scratches the central hub, dealing it 1 hull (OUT of 13!). Alpha-2 no shot. Turret 1 misses Jinn. Turret 2 hits for a Thrust control fire, giving Jinn a 2 ^nd stress token (and 2 hull!!).

The rebel troops roll two hits, moving out of the Hanger into the Feed-through module.

Round 6. The Decimator shows up on Tab-2 angled towards Crack and Jinn, while Gamma-1 shows up on Tab-1. The YT plans a 1 turn right, 2 bank left (will keep stress), 1 bank right for Jinn to clear stress and 3 bank left for Crack.

Alpha-2 banks 2 right and focuses. Charlie-2 re-locks the Central hub, straights 1 and focuses.

The YT moves and barrel rolls right.

The Decimator straights 3, locks Jinn and focuses.

Imo-thep moves and keeps stress.

Gamma-1 straights 3, boosts forward after locking Jinn.

Crack moves and bumps into Alpha-2 (**** HIM banking in my way). Jinn clears his first stress, but his shot on Alpha-2 misses. Crack hits with his main guns on Gamma-1 taking its first shield.

Gamma-1 then shoots his homing missile into Jinn sending him EVA.

This gives the Decimator no shot primary and its out of range for a 2 ^nd shot.

Imo-thep ionizes Alpha-2. The YT misses Charlie-2. Jinn stays at 2xp. Crack increases to 7xp, and 10xp for Imo-thep.

Charlie-2 hits with his main guns doing 3 more hull to the central hub.

The Rebel troops roll paired focuses. No advancing out of the Feed-through module. Alpha-2 takes the last shield off Imo-thep and gives him 1 hull. Turret 1 and 2 miss.

Round 7. The YT plans a 3 turn right, 2 bank right Crack, and the same for Imo-thep. He will keep his stress again.

Alpha-2 cannot clear Crack, so doesn't bleed its ion off. Charlie-2 re-locks the Central hub, straights 1 and focuses again.

The YT moves and locks Charlie-2 again.

The Decimator 3 banks left, locks Crack and focuses.

Imo-thep moves, still has stress (but at least he still has predator to get some re-rolls!).

Gamma-1 locks Crack, then bumps into the Decimator trying a 4 straight.

Crack moves and bumps the Decimator. No action. However his main guns take the last shield off Gamma-1, lucking out with one hit vs 3 focuses.

Gamma-1 has no shot.

Imo-thep deals a 2 ^nd hull to Alpha-2. This takes him to 11xp, 2 still on Jinn, and 8 now for Crack.

The Decimator cannot make its primary shot (on Crack), however its 2 ^nd shot on the Central hub, brings it up to 6 hull damage, almost half way through its hull.

The YT adds a 2 ^nd hull damage, and a Damaged cockpit critical to Charlie-2.

Charlie-2 then adds only a 7 ^th hull to the central hub.

Alpha-2 no shot. Turret 1 and 2 miss.

The Commandos gain one hit needed to advance to the central hub.

Round 8. The YT plans a 2 bank right, 3 straight for Crack and 1 straight for Imo-thep (will finally purge his stress).

Charlie-2 rolls a 5k, but this would run him off the map, so he shifts it to a 3 turn left, followed by a left barrel roll. Alpha-2 clears his first ion token, barrel rolls left out of Imo-thep's main fire arc.

The YT moves, gives action to the troops, to try and help them reach the central hub (they focus).

The Decimator locks Imo-thep, then bumps Alpha-2 trying a 4 straight. No action.

Imo-thep clears stress, locks the Decimator, then boosts right, to gain more distance from it. Still has shot with his ion turret on Alpha-2 barely (by maybe 2 millimeters).

Gamma-2 locks Crack then 4ks.

Crack moves, locks Gamma-1. Deals it one hull damage. Lock had to be spent just to get that though. BUT luck's on his side when Gamma-1 whiffs his return shot even with spending its own lock (Two blanks, followed by two focuses).

Imo-thep kills Alpha-2 finally. This takes Imo-thep to 13xp, 9xp for Crack. Still just 2 on Jinn.

The Decimator's first shot deals a 2 ^nd hull to Imo-thep. Out of range to make a 2 ^nd shot on the Central hub.

The YT deals a Stunned pilot critical to Charlie-2.

Charlie-2 no shot.

Turret 1 misses Crack, Turret 2 takes a 3 ^rd shield off him.

The rebel troops get to the Central hub.

Round 9. The YT plans a 1 turn right, 2 left turns both Crack and Imo-thep.

Charlie-2 hard turns 2 left. No action or lock.

The YT re-locks him

The Decimator locks Imo-thep after turning 2 left and focuses.

Imo-thep moves and focuses defensively (too far too shoot his ion turret).

Gamma-1 re-locks Crack then banks 2 left and focuses.

Crack moves and re-locks Gamma-1, then kills it before IT has a shot to shoot him.. This takes Jinn up to 3xp, Crack up to 13xp and 14xp for Imo-thep. Imo-thep has no shot.

The Decimator then deals 2 more hull to Imo-thep, leaving him 1 hull away from being sent EVA.

The YT misses.

Charlie-2 no shot.

Turret 1 rakes fire into Crack taking his last shield, and dealing him a minor explosion critical = 2 hull.

Turret 1 adds a 3 ^rd . Turret 2 misses.

The Troops roll only 1 hit to take the command center.

Round 10. This is where the rebels lose. Crack gets sent EVA by turret 1 and 2, JUST BEFORE THE REBEL TROOPS seize control of the base... And the Decimator sent Imo-thep Eva.

Ending XP 13xp ea for Crack and Imo-thep, 3 for Jinn. 9Xp average.

3 ^rd loss, 3 wins.

Considering the mission good to go at 3 players. Shifting now up to the 5 player testing.

Testings at 5 rebel ships

Mission Goals:

Destroy or disable the shield generator, and Sensor/comm dish

Escort the YT, till it docks, and Protect it and the base.

Hold the base till the end of turn 12.

Penalty – IF the YT is destroyed, everyone loses their most expensive ordinance. IF THE BASE gets destroyed once taken, everyone loses their most expensive NON Ordinance upgrade.

Once shifts up to 5 rebels, the ship assignments are;

1 ^st run – All A-wings; Shatter , Drogo, Gruff, Red-bull and Blue-thunder. (PS averages to a 6).

2 ^nd run – All X-wings; Squeaky, Jinn, Chaka, Tin-bok and Reign-fire. (PS averages to a 6).

3 ^rd run – All B-wings; Spot, Doc, Wilt, Shunt and Grood. (PS will average to a 6).

4 ^th run – All Y-wings; Dozer, Crack, Cmoz, Unca and Imo-thep (PS averages to a 6).

5 ^th run – Two X-wings (Squeaky and Tin-bok), 2 B-wings (Shunt and Spot) and 1 Y-wing (Imo-thep) (PS averages to a 6).

6 ^th run – Two Y-wings (Crack and Unca), 2 A-wings (Blue thunder and Red-bull) and 1 X-wing (Reign-fire). (PS averages to a 5).

If needs a 7 ^th running, will use all 4 base ships from my home game (Koresh, Snoopy, Shatter and Twitch), and will add in one Random ship.

Imperial forces:

Starting out – Alpha and Beta squad. Both shift up to Three tie fighters each. Alpha in Patrol box A, Beta out of the hanger.

Reinforcements-

Charlie – Turn 2 (if alerted) or Turn 3 (if not altered), Three Tie bombers. One regular, two elites for ALL runnings except for #6 (as its only a PS5 average) .

Delta – Turn 3 (If alerted) or turn 4 (if not alerted) coming out of hyperspace, Three tie defenders, one of which is elite. .

Gamma – Turn 6, Two Tie advance prototypes, both elite. Out of hyperspace.

Sigma – Turn 6 also. One Decimator, with +4 shield. Also coming out of hyperspace.

ADDED IF ALERTED (Applies to Test 4 and 5, for 5-player ONLY!!!!). – Falcon – Two tie bombers, One shifting up to elite. Coming out of the hanger, on turn 3.

Falcon squad's Strike AI has them going after the YT TILL it has docked, then shifts to targeting the central hub. Gamma squad's Strike AI has them Prioritizing rebel fighters, in order of A-wings, then X-wings, then Y-wings and lastly B-wings. They will ONLY SHOOT the YT, if its at range 1 AND they have no shot on a rebel fighter. If they have no shot on their PRIORITY Target, they can shoot OTHER rebel fighters at range 1 or 2. Delta's defenders prioritize Y-wings first, then B-wings, then X-wings and A-wings lastly.

Sigma's Decimator, will ALWAYS try to fire its PRIMARY attack, on the rebel fighters ONLY. The secondary attack, and its “Agent Kallus” ability WILL be used on the freighter. IF ITS docked, it instead shoots the command hub. Any ordinance it gains, are ONLY usable against rebel B or Y-wings.

I just got done doing one more test at 3 players, using my core ships from my home game (Snoopy the Y-wing, Twitch the B-wing and Shatter the A-wing), and had a victory in the 8th round. I am wondering, since this is supposed to be the "Grand finale" mission of the story string, if having it at a 50/50 win/loss ratio, is right. I will re-do (no writing things down, just running it free-hand) of all 3 of my prior wins, but upping the enemy to having a 2nd defender in Delta squad. See how that goes down (Prior to shifting to 5 players)...

SO i did a re-play of the Snoopy/Twitch/Shatter run, with the above mod, and the rebels lost in the 7th round. Due to REAL BAD die rolls, not one imperial even got damaged in the first round, while Shatter got raped of all of his shields by both Alpha-1 hitting him at range 3, and Turret 1 and 2 tore into him at range 4. THEN he got sent EVA by again, bad die rolls, in the Third round. Snoopy was the next to go, after trying to close in and destroy the turrets, but got not close enough to deny them both a range 2 smacking on him..

I then did a re-do of the first rebel win (Drogo, Reign-fire and Grood). Drogo and Reign did well, earning almost ten xp each by the time the mission was a loss, but Grood got chewed into (no sensor jammer), and they had a loss as well, by the 10th round (the Decimator kept chewing into the central hub and Grood, eventually sending him EVA. The Two defenders however, didn't really do much more than the 1 defender (in the first running) did as they Both got killed by the sixth round... However, the 2nd one being there, made Reign and Drogo have to spend a little extra time on THEM, that they couldn't spend, killing Charlie-1 and 2, so they started the damage rolling by dealing the first Four hull to the central hub. The Decimator destroyed it, JUST as the rebel troops got into the central hub (so had no chance to take the base...

That one was more of a close loss.. Now i am re-doing the Dozer/Chaka/Blue-thunder win, and seeing how that one handles the change up of Delta getting the 2nd defender...

I then did a redo of the Dozer/Chaka/Blue-thunder win. It was still a win, but MAN was it close. Chaka got lots of xp from killing two of the fighters, one of the bombers and one of the defenders, as well as from two assist kill actions for the YT. BUT got sent Eva in the 8th round. Dozer finished the mission WITH ONE HULL LEFT, while Blue-thunder just lost all his shields. The imperial Decimator tore things up, the defenders not so much. BUT the rebels held the base with THREE hull left on it (no-thanks to the damnable decimator!)..

Now on to re-do the last mission that was a win, Spot/Cmoz and Red-bull..

Though i have noticed, Debris gambit (the ept) is NOT doing some of my ships that good, as there's too many missions without debris to gambit!

Well, did the Spot/Cmoz/Red-bull re-do. MAN was it close but the last shot of the 11th turn, the Decimator killed the Central hub, JUST BEFORE Red-bull was able to get in HIS shot, which would have seen IT being destroyed..

So a Tight, loss but a loss none the less. The 2 defenders chewed through the shields on both Cmoz and Spot, but both fell in the 7th round to their hitting them with torpedoes. The XP hound of the mission was Spot, with Red-bull pulling up 2nd spot.. Cmoz died in the 9th round to the Decimator.

So that shifts me to 11 games, 5 wins, 6 losses at 3 ships. Now to re-test my three initial losses.

First up is the Gruff/Shunt/Tin-bok, then comes Unca/Wilt/Squeaky running, and lastly the Jinn/Crack/Imo-thep running.

Wow.. Shunt got OWNED by the defenders when they showed up. First one shredded 4 of his 6 shields, the 2nd blew him up, in the 4th round, after taking off his last 2 shields AND gave him both a direct hit crit AND a minor explosion that caused him to go BOOM.. BUT at least he used Two of his proton bombs... The first three rounds, ONLY ONE REBEL hit for a measly 2 damage on any imperial.. Bok died in the 5th round. So that was a Swift butt whupping...

Now i am doing wilt/unca/squeaky, and by the start of the 2nd round, TWO of the ties are gone, and none of them have been even shot at!

So the Wilt, Unca and Squeaky running, was a relatively easy win for the rebels.. The last imperial ship (the decimator) died in the 9th round.. Right as they took the base over.. BUT Wilt died and Squeaky was down to 1 hull... So it was still a close one.

Then i redid the Jinn/Crack/Imo-thep loss. It was again a loss, ONLY cause the two Y-wings, had four STRAIGHT ROUNDS where neither could hit for anything.. Whether with spending their locks and just getting blanks and focuses, or getting SOME hits, but the enemy just kept getting MORE Evades.. By the end of the 10th round, the Decimator had blown up the Central hub (the rebel troops were STILL stuck in the frikken feed-through module, after BARELY getting out of the hanger bay after being docked for 3 rounds).. NOT one rebel was kia, but both Y-wings were down to 1 and 3 hull respectively. Jinn though, was barely scratched..

So out of 14 runs, i have 6 wins, 8 losses over-all. 2 wins and 5 losses since the re-do of Delta, though Two of those losses were close ones.. Phew...

NOW i will get to the 5 rebels runnings... Starting with all 5 A-wings!

1 ^st running at 5 ships

Using all A-wings. Blue-thunder (PS5, concussion missile), Gruff (PS7, Assault missile, Named pilot of Bohdi Rook)), Drogo (PS 6 ion pulse missile with extra munitions, Named pilot of Roark Garnett), Red-bull (PS 5, assault missile, Named pilot of Tarn Mision) and Shatter (PS 6 also has an assault missile.

Blue-thunder and Red-bull aim towards Alpha squad, Drogo, Gruff and Shatter towards Beta squad. Gruff has squad leader. PS averages to a 5. Only turret 1 out of 3 are upped to a heavy.

Delta only has 1 defender. Charlie has elite bomber. Gamma has two elites.

As a reminder, Alpha and Beta all have 3 tie fighters. Charlie has 3 bombers (round 3), Delta has 3 defenders (round 4). The YT has +3 shields, the Decimator has +4 shields.

Round 1. Blue thunder plans a 5 straight, 4 straight for all other A-wings.

Alpha AND Beta squad all do a 3 straight and evade.

All rebels move. Blue-thunder locks Alpha-3, then via PTL, takes a stress to Focus. Red-bull locks Alpha-1, Shatter locks Beta-1, Gruff locks Beta-2 and Drogo locks Beta-3. Gruff's assault missile, fails to fire, munitions failsafe prevents it being wasted, but thanks to Saturation Salvo , Beta-3 takes one hull. Drogo's Ion pulse missile slams into Beta-3, giving it a 2 ^nd hull and 2 ion tokens. Shatter's Assault missile hits Beta-1, dealing it 1 hull and a Damaged cockpit critical, and the shockwave of it, deals 1 hull to Beta-2 and kills off Beta-3. Red-bull's assault missile then strikes Alpha-1, killing it with a Direct hit critical and 1 hull, while dealing 1 hull to each of Alpha-2 and 3 via the shockwave. Blue-thunder fires his main guns, taking Alpha-2 out. XP 2 ea for Shatter, Red-bull and Blue-thunder, 1 for Gruff and Drogo.

Alpha-3 takes a shot at Drogo but misses, Beta-1 does same for Gruff. Turret 1 then takes a range 4 pot shot on Red-bull, missing as well. Turret 2 and 3 out of range, and Beta-2 not in arc to shoot.

Round 2. The YT comes in, plans a 4 straight. Gruff 3k, 1 turn left for both Drogo and Shatter, 2 turn left for Blue (to clear stress) and Red-bull.

Beta-1 rolls a straight 2, then barrel rolls left to get arc to shoot at Gruff. Beta-2 turns 1 left, and focuses. Alpha-2 does a 2 bank left, then focuses.

The YT moves and focuses. Red-bull moves, has no capacity to get out of Alpha-2's arc so evades. Blue-thunder clears stress, barrel rolls right, and uses Intensity to focus. Gruff does his 3k and takes a stress. Drogo focuses, while Shatter bumps into Beta-1. Shatter will use his Wingman EPT to clear the stress of Gruff. Gruff's rear shot into Beta-1 kills it off with a 3 ^rd hit. Shatter misses Beta-2, but it dies to Drogo. Blue-thunder adds a 2 ^nd hull to Alpha-2. Red-bull has no shot.

XP 2 still on Red-bull and Shatter. 3 now for Drogo and Gruff and Blue-thunder.

Delta-1 then returns fire, taking the first shield off Grood and neuters his stealth device. Delta-3 misses Wilt. Turret 3 misses Doc (barely).

The troops gain only one hit, failing to exit the hanger.

Round 6. Gamma-1 and 2 show up on Tab 1, the Decimator on Tab 2.

Spot plans a 1 bank left again, hoping to clear his stress this round. Shunt plans a 1 bank right to clear his stress. 1 bank left for Grood to clear his stress, 2k for Doc and Wilt (both will take a stress).

Delta-1 locks Shunt,then does a white 4k. Focuses. Delta-3 locks Spot, then also 4ks and focuses. The Decimator 4 straights, locks Grood and focuses. Gamma-1 and 2 also 4 straight, lock Grood (man is he popular!) then focus.

The rebels move. Shunt clears his stress, barrel rolls left to get out of Delta-1's range. Doc drops his proton bomb, then takes a stress. Spot clears his stress, uses Sabine to boost left. Then locks Delta-1. Wilt takes his stress and Grood clears his, then barrel rolls right, and takes another stress focusing via PTL. The bomb goes off from Doc, dealing a blinded pilot critical to the Decimator and a damaged sensor array critical to Delta-1. Doc and Shunt then use their crew slots to deal 2 shield damage to the Decimator.

Grood then finishes turret 3 off. Wilt takes 2 more shields off the Decimator. Spot's plasma torpedo strips all 3 shields of Delta-1.

Gamma-1 hits Grood taking 3 shields, and via Ruthlessness takes a shield of Doc. Gamma-2 then takes the last shield off Grood, deals 1 hull and an Injured pilot critical (so Nera Dantels and PTL are now no more), and the last shield comes off Doc thanks to his Ruthlessness.

Doc then hits Delta-1 for a Console fire critical. Shunt has no shot. Shunt now at 10xp. 11 for Grood. 10 for Doc, 9 for Spot, and 6 for Wilt.

The Decimator then auto-misses its first shot, but its 2 ^nd deals 2 CRITICALS so 4 hull to the central hub.

Delta-1 and 3 then send Spot EVA. OUCH.

The troops fail to get out of the hanger again (rolled two focuses).

Round 7. After moving around, Doc and Grood join the list of those EVA, but not before Grood finished off Delta-1, taking him up to 14xp. Wilt was the only other one who hit, taking him to 7xp.

Troops finally get out of the hanger. BUT with the three dead B-wings, the YT, and the two left, take the option to try and hyper out.

Round 8, All the rebels safely enter hyperspace. However the YT lost 5 of its remaining shields before it entered.

Ending XP was 14 for Grood, 9 for Spot, 7 for Wilt, 10 for Doc and Shunt. XP averages to 10. Still high, but not as much.

Gamma and the Decimator really tore into the B-wings.. Though Shunt and Doc's bombs did VERY WELL...

2 ^nd straight loss, 1 win.

4 ^th running at 5 ships

Using all Y-wings. Unca (PS7 proton torpedo an proton bomb with extra munitions, Named pilots of Ibtisam and Zeb), Dozer (PS 7, goes with his plasma torpedo and seismic bomb, Named pilot of Dutch Vandar), Crack (PS 7 also, Also has a seismic bomb and his proton torpedo with extra munitions, no named pilot). Cmoz (PS 6, goes with his Dorsal turret, Proton torpedo and seismic bomb, also with no named pilot), and Imo-thep (PS 5, goes with his proton bomb and proton torpedo, with named pilot of Chewbacca).

5 ^th running at 5 ships

Using the B-wings Shunt (PS6, Proton bomb and Proton torpedo for ordinance, Sabine wren for crew slot. Named pilot of Etahn Abaht), and Spot (PS 7, proton and plasma torpedos, Gunner crew slot, Named pilot of Sabine Wren),. The X-wings Tin-bok (PS 6. Advance proton torpedo with extra munitions, Named pilot of Sabine Wren),and Squeaky (PS7, plasma torpedo, Named pilot of Arvel Crynyd). And the Y-wing Imo-thep (PS 5, goes with his proton and seismic bombs, with named pilot of Chewbacca). Squad leader will be on Spot.

PS averages to a 6.

Turret 1 and 2 out of the 3 are upped to Heavy. Delta has three defenders (none of which are elites) NOW coming in in round 3.. Charlie has one elite and 2 regular bombers, now showing up in round 2. FALCON Squadron is added in turn 3, with 2 more tie bombers, one of which is elite.. Gamma is now coming in on round 5. The Decimator is not changed.

Alpha squad all banks 3 left. All evade. Beta squad 3 banks left as well. Beta-1 focuses as its in weapon range. Beta-2 and 3 evade.

The rebels move. Imo-thep locks onto Beta-3, then boosts left via its droid, getting out of all their arc's. Tin-bok boosts forward, moves and focuses. Shunt locks Alpha-3. Squeaky and Spot focus.

Spot's ion cannon barely connects with Alpha-1, dealing it 1 hull and 1 ion token. Squeaky rolls a pair of blanks and 1 hit, vs the Two evades of Beta-3. Tin-bok rolls 3 hits and a blank vs the THREE evades of Beta-1. Imo-thep rolls only 1 hit vs one evade and the token, on Beta-2. Shunt rolls ALL BLANKS, totally whiffing vs Alpha-3. WOW..

Alpha-1 bleeds his ion, focuses. Alpha-2 and 3 each roll a 2 straight, and come almost alongside Alpha-1. Both also focus. Beta-1 does a 4k, barely getting behind Squeaky. Beta-2 and 3 also tried their 4K's, but both bump INTO squeaky. THIS causes Squeaky to be unable to move.

Charlie-1 and 2 bank 3 left. Both lock onto the YT, and both focus.

The YT winds up bumping into Beta-1's rear, as It won't get to clear where Beta-3 is bumping Spot.

Charlie-3 banks 2 left and focuses after locking the YT.

The rest of the rebels move. Imo-thep bumps Beta-2. Tin-bok uses Sabine, barrel rolls left, then moves and focuses. Shunt launches his first proton bomb via Trajectory simulator , then bumps into Alpha-3. Squeaky can't move, so no regenerates shield. Spot focuses.

Shunt's proton bomb detonates, dealing a Blinded pilot critical to Alpha-2, Injures the pilot of Alpha-3 (though as it has no pilot to injure its just counted as 1 hull), and deals a Damaged sensor array critical to Alpha-1. He then uses his Sabine crew slot to blow Alpha-1 up. Spot's main guns finish off Alpha-2. Squeaky deals 1 hull to Charlie-1. Tin-bok adds a Structural damage crit and 2 more hull to Charlie-1. Shunt has no shot.

Charlie-3 misses the YT, even with spending its lock.

Alpha-3 does a 3k, getting in behind Shunt. Beta-1 straights 2, focuses, as cannot barrel roll out of Squeaky's arc. Beta-3 does a 3 turn left and focuses. Beta-3 straights 5, bumping into Alpha-3. Delta-1 to 3 lock onto Imo-thep then all bank 1 left. Cannot barrel roll right to get arc as two would be bumping. So all take a focus. Charlie-2 re-locks the YT, then straights 3 bumping into Beta-1. Falcon 1 turns 3 left, locks the YT, barrel rolls right to get it into arc.

The YT moves, and locks Falcon-1.

Charlie-3 re-locks the YT, banks 1 left bumping into Charlie-2. Falcon-2 banks 2 left and focuses after locking the YT.

Imo-thep moves, drops his proton bomb, then bumps into Falcon-2. Tin-bok doesn't have space to barrel roll, bumps into Falcon-1. Shunt drops his 2 ^nd proton bomb, moves then barrel rolls right. Squeaky cannot move as won't clear all the ships in front of him. No regenerates a shield again. Spot uses Sabine to boost forward, moves then locks onto Charlie-3.

Imo-thep's proton bomb detonates. Deals a minor explosion critical, that takes 2 shields off Delta-1. A minor hull breach critical to Delta-2, and a direct hit critical to Delta-3. Shunt's bomb detonates blowing up Alpha-3 with a Direct hit critical, deals another direct hit critical to both Beta 2 and 3, then uses Sabine crew slot to blow Beta 2 up.

Sqeuaky's main guns then deal 1 hull to Charlie-2. Spot's proton torpedo deals only a damaged engine critical to Charlie-3. Shunt's HLC adds 2 more hull to Charlie-2. Tin-bok adds 2 hull and a Damaged cockpit crit to Charlie-3.

Charlie-3 then hits into the YT taking its last 2 shields. Falcon 3's homing missile dears 2 more hull off the YT and deals it a stunned pilot critical..

Imo-thep then ions Charlie-3. The YT finishes it off (+1xp all).

Shunt increases to 6xp. 4 for Spot. 4 for Squeaky. 3 for Imo-thep and 3 for Tin-bok.

Charlie-2 then hits Squeaky (as It has no arc to shoot the YT) taking hi last 2 shields and deals him a direct hit critical (now at 2 hull). Falcon-1 then rips into the YT with 2 more hull AND a munitions failure critical, blowing it up.. REBELS cannot win now.

Beta-3 has no shot. Beta-1 misses. Delta-2 and 3 have no arc to shoot. BUT Delta 1-s main guns tear the last two shields off Imo-thep, and stuns his pilot....

Round 4. All rebels plan to hyper out. Squeaky fails to enter, after once again bumping. Then dies. Same with Imo-thep. Shunt, Spot and Tin-bok all safely enter though...

Ending XP 3, 3, 4, 4 and 6. For an average of 4. 3rd loss, 2 wins.

WOW a SWIFT AS **** loss for the rebels... Man the dice just were in the imperials favor from the get go...

6 ^th and hopefully last running at 5 ships

Using the Y-wings Crack (PS 7 also, goes with his Proton bomb and Proton torpedo, with extra munitions, no named pilot), and Unca (PS7 goes with his Proton bomb and Proton torpedo, with extra munitions, Named pilots of Ibtisam and Zeb Orrelios). The X-wing Reign-fire (PS5, Named pilot of Thane Kyrell, Plasma torpedo). And the A-wings Red-bull PS 4, assault missile, Named pilot of Tarn Mision), and Blue thunder (PS5, concussion missile). PS averages to a 5. Squad leader on Unca again.

Turret 1 of 3 is upped to a heavy. Delta has three defenders. Charlie has 3 bombers, but only 1 is upped to elite. Charlie back to showing up in round 3. Delta back to coming in, in round 4, and Gamma back to coming in, in round 6. NO FALCON SQUAD. Alpha and Beta squadrons back to starting out in patrol AI.

The rebels move. Crack locks Alpha-1, Unca focuses, Blue-thunder locks Beta-2, then Pushes the limit to focus (taking a stress), Red-bull locks Beta-1 and Reign locks Alpha-3. Reign's plasma torpedo blows Alpha-3 up with TWO crits and two hits vs NO evades... Crack deals only 1 hull to Alpha-1 with his first proton torpedo (what a waste). Unca's TLT deals two hull to Beta-3. Blue-thunder's Concussion missile fails to fire, Focus not wasted, missile not wasted thanks to munitions failsafe. Red-bull's assault missile strikes blowing Beta-1 up, finishes off Beta-3 and deals 1 hull to Beta-3.
