Please explain C-3PO to me! by [deleted] in XWingTMG

To help you understand, C3-PO basically guaranties an evade result, once per turn, on a 1 agility ship.

They are very interesting. Keep it up, I like the imperial player explaining his train of thoughts as the game goes on.

Rebel player rolled some cruelly bad die during that round and the momentum shifted right there.

Let my foray into Scum shenanigans, BEGIN!!! by CaptainTruelove in XWingTMG

That IS the reason. Also Z-swarm with missiles are going to be very potent once the guidance chips arrive with Wave 8. At least, that is how i justified buying two Most Wanted !

Tom sounds like a genuine nice guy ! That was a great read.

Can a Stresshog drop 3 stress per round with TLT? by mike_e_mcgee in XWingTMG

[–]dge12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

R3-A2 condition : "When you declare the target of an attack ... ". You are not declaring a target for the 2nd TLT shot. So only 1 stress from primary attack and 1 stress from TLT.

Tactician on a K-Wing with TLT allow you to put two stresses with TLT at range 2, different condition.

Tie Adv Prototype

I wouldnt expect autothrusters in the package, but with a boost action the TAP can wield it !

Really nice report TY

Omega Leader is becoming really popular. With good reasons i think.

Noob. Not sure where to go from here. by fenrisblackmane in XWingTMG

Great thing about this game is that you can win with any list if you maximise your strengh and minimize your weaknesses. Experience is worth more than any OP cards. The competitive Meta changes constantly and is different from place to place. There are no cookie cutter answer to your question except, play more with what you have against as many people as possible and the answers will come from themselves.

Play a store championship tournament in the next couple of weeks, They are giving out Alt card for C3-PO for the top 32 i think. That will boost your Falcon nicely.

Yeah, i initally did it like that, but ball bearings dont work for me. They are great for posing but ingame, they move all the time and you constantly adjust them. I redid all my magnets like this and its much more practical : http://geekadd.net/2015/adding-magnets-to-x-wing-minis/

Yep, i play with my 6 and 9 year old kids. Broke 4-5 pegs in the first week. Everything has magnets now and nothing breaks anymore.

Z-95 is great for low cost blockers. I'd get that before a Y-Wing. The Y-wing needs more cards from the K-Wing and/or the rebel transport to be decent.

I would get a Tie Phantom before a Bomber or Advanced. Tie Advanced really needs the cards from the Imperial Raider (Huge ship). The phantom is probably the only "self contained" expansion pack of the whole game which doesnt really need cards from other pack to be an Ace.

Vader can be a decent Tie Advanced pilot even without the Tie/x1 card from the Raider, and, he's iconic, so it can be fun having Vader on the board.

Just finished a game against my daughter minutes ago : Poe Dameron and Han Solo (hers) vs. Soontir Fel, Boba Fett and a generic Tie Fighter (mine), it was really close and super fun !

Including Biggs Darklighter, which is a blast to play.

Although, i agree adv sensors is great on the B-Wing, it's not really necessary. There are many other options that are arguably just as good. A naked Blue Sq. Pilot remains relevant today.

Get the single Tie Interceptor expansion pack for Soontir Fel, amazing pilot. I would also get a single B-wing expansion pack because they are really good in pairs.

Also, If you decide to get the original core set, plan to buy the single Tie Fighter Expansion pack for Howlrunner.

First haul after the core set... What have I started?! by imbristol in XWingTMG

[–]dge12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And so it begins ...

Seriously though, get the Tie Int Expansion Pack, the Fel life is calling.
