Happy Friday

Happy Friday to our friends over seas and Friday eve to us here in the USA.

Question for the week,

What is your craziest dice moment? (4 double red hits, needing 1 and rolling all blanks from a front ISD arc)

Most frustrating recently was Kanan going up against a Sloane 2-ship list. He rolled double accuracy against the ISD. So instead of dealing the single squad raid I needed and crippling his activation, I get nothing and get hammered by TIES.

Killing Demolisher with Salvo before it could get off it's Move-Attack ability.

Rolled perfectly to put in enough damage and lock down the defense tokens.

I had Tagge on my flagship ( Insidious ), forgot that we were playing Opening Salvo, and he rolled good enough with a post-move Demolisher to one-shot me. Just further proof the Tagge is terrible.

To continue the Demolisher tales of woe, I had my H1MC80 on its last hull point, but with a Shield left.

He had an unhurt Demolisher at long range. He rolled two hits, I braced and took it on my shield. Then he moved into close range and rolled his 4 blacks: all blank. Rerolled with OE: all blank again.

Then I one-shotted him with my side arc he'd just parked in. My MC80 still died to his ISD I'd been trapped in front of, but I won the game by a smidge due to Demo dying.

In a recent RitR campaign my teammates had no less than 3 MC80s get aced by a Kuat rolling 7 damage, 3 accuracies, and top decking a Projector Misaligned with APTs.

Double hit with Moralo eight times in a row following but 0 hits with Moralo the following eight times. Against ships.

Taking 11 damage from a tricked out hammerhead on the first shot of the game 😫

@Crabbok any good dice stories you want to share?

About a year ago, I parked my CR90 Flagship (at full health) in the front arc of my friend's Cymoon, pretty confident that Mon Mothma would save me... not against this roll (with no modified dice either).

I was playing my buddy @Chuntsinger a few years back and he had a TIE fighter role 6 blues (flight controllers + Howlrunner) against one of my xwings...he rolled 6 accuracies.

Good to see you again @Cubanboy

Happy Friday!

Hardly impressive, but taking out Demo with Sontier Fel.

Too funny not to share. Saw this on Discord--the story is that one guy's dice rolls were so bad compared to his opponent that he made a meme out of it.

1-shotted a full health MC-75 one time from a fully loaded Cymoon! That was fun!
