Next week X-Wing League...


Came in first so ended up with a Bye for the end of League tournament.  Got in a few test games and was not really happy with what I had...  

So, looking like I will be running a different Bomber list next week:

Scurrg Swarm (200)
Sol Sixxa — Scurrg H-6 Bomber
46
Ion Cannon Turret
4
Skilled Bombardier
2
Proton Bombs
5
Proximity Mines
6
Hull Upgrade
3
Havoc
4
Collision Detector
6
“Genius”
2
Ship Total: 78
Half Points: 39 Threshold: 6

Lok Revenant — Scurrg H-6 Bomber
43
Ion Cannon Turret
4
Veteran Turret Gunner
6
Proton Bombs
5
Hull Upgrade
3
Ship Total: 61
Half Points: 31 Threshold: 6

Lok Revenant — Scurrg H-6 Bomber
43
Ion Cannon Turret
4
Veteran Turret Gunner
6
Proton Bombs
5
Hull Upgrade
3
Ship Total: 61
Half Points: 31 Threshold: 6

Almost the same, but making my Bombers…  Well, you know, Bombers.  Played a few practice games with the Drea based swarm and it was solid, but unexciting.  And of course Drea herself was ALWAYS the primary target to strip the re-rolls…  Nothing in that list has much any chance to avoid Damage, so anyone shooting at her likely hit her.  This way, I have just the Scurrgs and while they also are not dodging much, the extra Hull on all of them might buy me a bit more time, and Sol?  REALLY glad they did not put Reload on these ships…  I am already liking the Skilled Bombardier and Sol’s ability combined with Genius for some absolutely silly threats…  Much like v1’s CPT Nym honestly.  But using ANY 1 or 2 maneuver to drop Bombs or Mines means I can put it LOTS of places…  I moved to Ion turrets in place of the Dorsal.  I found that in general, they were only doing a single Damage in any case barring of course the odd times I got the Range 1 double tap…  And the Ion starting out at 3 Dice should get me the same number of Hits that the re-rolls from Drea got me along with the bonus of possibly Ionizing the enemy and leaving them easier prey for the Bombers and maybe even a few Proton Bombs as a parting gift…  So, an Extended list for another week or two I think.

Hyperspace is looking very much like my Jedi will be out by 21 March…  So 2 weeks out and I’ll be back to my Aces…
