What squads will work for a first game?

By Revanchist, in X-Wing

with Luke at range 3 with a TL one-shotting a TIE on the first turn we were in range.

I bet that the person who did that became a fan of the game right then and there. :)It's the little moments like that, that really make this game special to me. I remember one game where it was 2 X's vs 1 Tie Fighter left. They banked left to face the TF head on, at R1, the first one opened fire and finished it off. It felt like it came right out of a movie. :)

Yup he did. Also found out that one of he other players is a natural Imperial: he barrel rolls like the best of them. There were a coue times he rolled out of both of our firing arcs.

I've been teaching my nine-year old daughter to play, and she is amazingly good at using barrel rolls. I'm very impressed with her ability to decide what maneuvers will get her where she wants to go.

I know it wasn't toooooo long ago, but that feeling for when barrel rolls *click* for the first match. Mmm... So good. And another Imperial is made (Bwings still don't count!). I remember it like it was yesterday... Well one of those matches did happen yesterday.
