1x Bobba Fett/swarm/navigator
very fun battle.
asteroid setup seemed to favor rebels with a central ring making turn 2 manouvres dicey for ships wanting to turn. rebels deploy in centre of board (except for Tycho who goes for left edge) and head directly into the asteroid ring.
imperials opt to space their ships range2 from each other with Fett and Howlrunner range1 of each other.
An academy pilot dies first on turn3 (shot by Tycho), then howlrunner on turn4 (via long range shot from B-Wings HLC). Looking good for rebels but the battle swings to the imperials after this with both Tycho and the B-Wing exploding turn5.
Advanced Sensors allows the B-Wing to Focus+ K_Turn out of an overlap from the BSP but as luck would have it this actually puts him at close range of the BSP and Dark Curse, who bumps into the back of the BSP and is in a great position to fire at close range (this was unplanned by the imperials!) ...this was the crucial turn as the B-Wing got taken out b4 it could return fire thanx to the swarm assisted attack given by Fett (Fett+BSP+Dark Curse all get 3 attack dice on the B-Wing in this turn).
the 2nd prototype goes soon after and the rebels conceded with just Garven left versus Fett (only one shield lost and full hull) and 3 tie fighters (curse, BSP, academy).
In hindsight i think the rebel team lacked firepower. dropping both prototype A-Wings and spending those 34pts on a 3-attack-dice ship would have helped. Having another named x-wing pilot or even a B-Wing would have evened the odds a little sooner imo.
