Eh, I much prefer the Fleet Officer, mini swarm. I've won a few tourneys with it. Current list I like is: OGP - Fleet Officer / Adv Sensors Howlrunner Chaser Youngster - PtL Epsilon Leader Last 4 points are up in the air. Tact on the shuttle, Determination on Howl, Comm Relay on EL, Shield or Hull upgrade on Howl.

Re: X-Wing
Sorry, I've been playing this game for a while yet that last post sounds like an Imperial code. OGP? PtL? Tact? EL?

Re: X-Wing
Hi guys, I hope that I can join this discussion, even though it might take me a while to catch up on the flow of the conversation (i.e. 31 previous pages). I didn't know that a Star Wars: X-Wing thread existed here on HeroScapers until our mutual friend
@MegaSilver
pointed me in the right direction.
I've been playing SW:X-W almost from the beginning, but never thought of discussing it with fellow 'Scapers, even though it was @mad_wookiee , @spidey Sox , @peteparkerh , and @tom that got me interested in trying it. I chat most often about this game on three FaceBook pages: "South Jersey/Philadelphia area X-Wing, Armada, and Imperial Assault Alliance," "South Jersey Gaming League," and "Nervana: Star wars X-Wing league." However FB always seems to suck the time right out of my clocks, leaving me to wonder where did the day go. Anyway, Monday night ( 12/28 ) I stopped in at a FLGS 50 miles away from my home (where I used to get together with other "Wingers," to visit some old friends during the break between Xmas and NYE. Six months ago a new FLGS opened up much closer to my house, so I've been playing there 2 - 3 times a week instead. I was surprised to walk into an impromptu X-Wing tournament. Mondays are usually the casual SW:X-W game night at All The Kings Men, so I was prepared to play, but since they just ran a large 28 player tournament on Sunday, I didn't expect such a high level of competitiveness. I decided to go with only two ships, because I had lost against this build several times during a recent six week league event at Nerdvana. They were: Corran Horn in his E-Wing with R2D2, Push-The-Limits, Fire-Control-System, Proton Torpedoes and Auto-Thusters modification and Poe Dameron in his T-70 X-Wing with R5P9, Push The Limits, Engine Upgrade, Proton Torpedoes, and Weapons-Guidance. I won 2 out of the 3 games and came in 8th out of 18 participants. It was a very fun evening.

Re: X-Wing
My cousin was working on a collection but most of his ships were broken and subsequently trashed. He has offered to give me his box of upgrade cards, tokens, dials, etc. I think it will also include the Millennium Falcon, an X-Wing, and a B-Wing.
As I mentioned previously I already have the Force Awakens core set. With that in mind, this is what I'm looking at to get started, so to speak: Original Core Set Rebel Aces Imperial Aces Slave I HWK TIE Phantom Down the road I plan to pick up a couple of Z-95s and maybe another Y-Wing. Even if I don't, this should get me a nice variety of ships for Rebel v. Imperial matches and set me up to have decent Scum squadrons when I lay my hands on Most Wanted.

Re: X-Wing
Looks like a solid fleet Caps! You should have plenty of variety for matches, especially if you proxy upgrade cards.

I just found a Most Wanted set at Barnes & Noble last night. It was $40 but with my wife's educator discount it came in at $32, and since we don't know when it will restock and it was the last one on the shelf, I snagged it. |

Re: X-Wing
I would use it in two scenarios (and their variants):
* when in a one-on-one dogfight where the enemy will be maneuvering out of reach in the next round and * when in a one-on-one dogfight where Horn will be attempting to maneuver out of the enemy's firing arc the next round in such a way that he will also not have an angle on them, perhaps by boosting straight past them.
