X-Wing League Nights Season 2 at Madness - Plano, TX

By Hida77, in X-Wing Organized Play

It was a lot of fun. You and the others there made my first-time player experience a good one.

As with last season, I'm very interested in playing, but my Friday evenings are booked. I could make anytime Saturday or Sunday if there was a way to accommodate that into the league. If not, then, "oh well".

Ill be at the store on Sundays, but Ill likely be playing in another league. If you want to play on Sundays I will be at the store and you wont miss out since I dont post the scores until Mondays usually anyway. Talk to me this Sunday if that works, Ill be at the store all day. That way you can get me your sheet prior to leaving and we'll be square. I want you to be included, I know you play mainly at Madness.

Unfortunately, I can't necessarily help you with finding opponents. Know you play a lot with Sable and I know Tony will likely also be at the store Sundays playing Star Wars, am sure he could find you some games here/there as well. Other than that, you would need to find/ask people here if they are available.

Important Note: I marked myself TO as a note that I am NOT eligible for prizes, I am only participating =)

I'm really glad to hear the league is off to a great start! Sorry I missed it but I will be there this Friday. Looking forward to meeting all the new people!

Looking forward to tomorrow!

Me too! I should be there around 5.

Last night was so much fun. There were ~17 people there and a bunch more people expressed interest in joining us next friday. I'm sad I won't be able to make it next week. Ran this list:

Boba Fett (39)
Expert Handling (2)
Navigator (3)

Omicron Group Pilot (21)
Fire-Control System (2)
Gunner (5)
Engine Upgrade (4)

Academy Pilot (12)

Academy Pilot (12)

Total: 100

This list was able to take out a list I was frankly scared of, though I was aided a bit by the dice. AABBX. I setup differently than he planned and screwed up his formation. Ended up getting one of the A-Wings within range 1 of Fett and rolled 3 hits and crit and he rolled nothing to evade (He had boosted before I pounced on him with Fett), so I one-shotted an A-Wing.

Altogether, it was a fun and enjoyable night. I look forward to returning in two weeks.

What a great week! a lot of people in the hunt for the prizes, don't think anyone is out of it yet!

I am not going to be doing player breakdowns, its just too complicated and messy to put here. I am still tracking, so if you want yours, feel free to post here and I'll send you!

Already excited about next week, hope to see everyone again! Will be sure to reserve as many tables as possible so everyone can play with no interruptions!

Sable you fiend! You and your dastardly lists! Certainly keeping me on my toes every time I play you. :)

Nobody expects the shuttle inquisition!

Okay Sable, I have 2 shuttles and bad luck. What should I do with them?

Don't play them at Madness, for god's sake! ;-)

Okay Sable, I have 2 shuttles and bad luck. What should I do with them?

The whole point of shuttles is to remove luck from the equation as much as possible. So:

2x Omicron Group Pilot + FCS + Gunner + Engine Upgrade

36 Points of other stuff

Options for 'other' include:

2x Scimitar Squadron (Yay bombers)

3x Academy Pilot

Dark Curse + Backstabber

Bounty Hunter + 3 points stuff

Darth Vader + Upgrades

Each of the above options can be interesting and viable, but will change how you fly the alabaster void manatees

No interceptors because they are luck based.

I had a lot of fun last week and am looking forward to playing with you guys again. I finally hit on an Imperial list I liked.

Shuttle (OGP) + Engine Upgrade

Darth Vader (in a TIE advanced)

Dark Curse

Winged Gundrek

and the other 5 skill TIE piolt who's name is escaping me.

(also I hate to be that guy but it looks like there is a data entry error in the results. I should have won the last game I played on week 2 and it looks like its down as a loss).

Ill check it when I get home, is very possible I made a mistake when I typed it up. If so I will make sure to adjust/repost. Thanks for letting me know (seriously, I want it to be right).

Matt T was right, I goofed. Fixed standings. Now everything looks fixed, but please let me know if its not!

I had a change in plans for the weekend. This means I will be able to make it tomorrow. Yay! :)

Of course this means I need to actually work on my list alterations.

Cool =)

I think you are doing just fine with the existing list =D

Gah! I'm really going to regret missing tomorrow night, but I'm stuck up in Seattle until Sunday. See you guys next week!

I maayyyy be seeing y'all later tonight at around 9. Hope so at least. If not, have fun, and see y'all in two weeks . I can't make it next week either. Work has gotten pretty busy for me.

Another great turnout guys, we had 19! Great to see all the new people, hope to see you all again next week!

Will post current standings tomorrow evening. =)

Wow, 19, that's crazy!

I was super tired yesterday, but I should be there early next week.

Yeah, it looks like I should plan on showing up early too. :)

what squads r ppl playing there? nething outside the norm?

We get to face SableGryphon's doomcows, flown by the man himself, more often than we may like. ;)

I haven't faced anything whacky beyond that, but hey, I don't have that many games under the belt yet either.
