So, played in the Hyperspace in Springfield… Day one was in the previous post and so I
made the cut for Day 2… Got paired up
against an excellent player out of the Chicago area, he did the video editing
for Gold Squadron’s YouTube streams, so he recognized my name J… He had Fenn, Fett and Sevor in his list. Fairly even match, but I played more
aggressively and was able to dodge the TIE’s Arc and drop a Proximity Mine on
it to kill him the following turn before he could Activate. His other ships took a bit longer, but IIRC
the Snap Shot was brutal again and I found myself wishing I had the Ion Cannon
in place of the Auto-Blaster here… With
Krassis and his ability to re-roll and fire out of both Arcs it is the better
choice overall I think. I wound up
getting the win decisively, though I think he halved Krassis… I think, nothing was posted and I was mostly
just shocked to be there and making it to top 8… So, won the Range Ruler and Dice for making
Day 2 and Top 4 secured the Templates…
Neat, but I do prefer my Curled Paw ones honestly… Green and with the Jedi symbol on it, so definitely
mine…
Top 4 game was against Patrick out of Peoria (I think? We play a LOT in these semi local events, fun
opponent and great player)… He had Vader
and 3 Inquisitors with Foresight…. ROUGH
list. Sadly, Krassis died to a critical
cascade with Hull Breach and direct hits piling in a LOT of damage. I was counting on even if it went badly I
would have had him one more round to finish off Vader and likely another
Inquisitor… Even with that, I ALMOST
caught him, it came down to the Range 3 shot into Vader who was without mods to
get him to half and me the win… No J… The 3 Agility did not
betray him or they betrayed me, depending on your perspective I suppose…
So, on to the event this weekend… Extended so I will change my list a little:

No major changes, Ion in place of the Auto Blaster and
IG-88D as the Crew there for the double Calculate action. Snap is solid here… Only minor debate is swapping the Stealth
Device off of Boba to put Proximity Mines on Krassis perhaps… Maybe, but when my luck holds with the
Stealth, that ship is just immune to Damage for far longer than most people are
prepared for… Still, a fun list and
nothing that should cause people to rage quit I hope…
The Nantex OTOH….
Watching the Worlds streaming and seeing a LOT of them. And a LOT of CIS swarms. Both absolutely solid things and for the MOST
part my Firesprays do well against them.
Just outright ignoring the Tractor silliness…
