Post your regional stories and post prize pics!!!

By LedZep, in X-Wing

So I sucked hard with the double Firespray build I made. Bad rolls and bad moves…all good considering it was my second time using the slave 1 and my first time using 2!.

I went with fett and bounty hunter with heavy laser cannons & gunner. Fett had marksmanship. I realized I could have gotten a better spot if I had changed HLC for Ion Cannon and added 2 mines (sesmic or proximity.) Crash prize for me anyway. :( XD

I won regionals at the Whiz Store, in Westboro, Massachusetts. We had 19 players.

I ran:

Han Solo with Marksmanship and gunner

2 Gold Squad with ion turrets

Wave 1 was imperial madness. Wave 2 is flight of the falcons.

My full report(s) is on my thread in the Battle Reports section.

Actually there were only 3 lists, out of 19, with YT-1300s at our event and I was the only won with a YT to be in the top 8 players. Second place was a two firespray and tie fighter list, third was elite ties with a couple of tie interceptors.

8th place at Kansas City's regionals this weekend:

Green Squadron- cluster missles/dead eye

Wedge- Marksmenship/R2-D2/shield upgrade

Dutch- Ion Cannon/R5-D8/Proton torpedos

My loss was due to an opponate who was still very new to the game, so each turn took forever.due to explaining things about my attacks and what not, So time and a well rolled assult missle was my down fall. Still had a blast but i was very aggitated because of that opponate. I'm trying not to be but still…kind of sucks ya know.

I was the 3rd place player there. Actually, only ran 1 named pilot.

Howlrunner with Stealth

(2) Alpha Squadron each with Stealth

(3) Academy

First game, took down a pair of YT's, Lando & Han, without losing a single ship. Took down Lando on the 2nd turn of shooting, regrouped and gradually nibbled Han down =^,^=

Won 3, Lost 1. The loss was to 5 Interceptors: 2 Sabers each with Elusiveness, and 3 Alphas.

Directions that come with the Regionals kit suggest that the coin be given as a "crash prize" for the participant who is in last place. That is indeed how it was awarded at the Regional I attended. burla

I suppose the TOs have the freedom to award it as they wish, but that is the suggested usage.

I got crash prize…no coin :(
