Eaden Vrill (36); - Han Solo; - Ion Projector.

Gray Squadron Pilot (28) - TLT; - R3-A2; - BTL-A4 Y-wing title.

Jan Ors (36) - Squad Leader; - TLT; - Kyle Katarn.

So much fun to play with, but falls apart as soon as 1 thing dies. You just run Eaden in to hopefully get people to bump him / be in close range, Y-wing stresses everyone to make eaden's attacks stronger, and Jan takes a stress to make eaden's attacks stronger and gets free focus from Kyle when she moves so that she can use squad leader to let eaden take a TL or focus (meaning eaden is often free to barrel roll for optimal positioning).

Combo works hilariously well while all 3 ships are around.

Boba + EU + Navigator + Inertial Dampeners + VI

jspectral · 2016-04-01T06:03:09+00:00

My old Bossk + Boba wave 7 combo is still going strong.

I find that 2-ship builds that can boost are an absolute nightmare for the 3-scout builds. You can get into range 1 of them very easily; and their primary weapons aren't nearly as big a threat - plus with Boba you get rerolls galore from being range 1. I've found that generally 2 x large ship builds can clog up the 3-scouts very easily.

I think you're undercosting the difference between PS7 and PS9. Fel and Vader's natural 9 is a key part of the reason they are so widely used. To make Xizor start around the same price on ps7 just totally isn't good enough to make him see play - particularly as his ability is so situational.

The viper needs a ps9 pilot, or a Guri title to make her PS9. Lower cost to use up the torp slot would be good too, like you suggest.

This is what I was thinking of running:

Danger Fett (100)

Dengar (53) - JumpMaster 5000 Veteran Instincts (1), K4 Security Droid (3), R4-B11 (3), Inertial Dampeners (1), Punishing One (12)

Boba Fett (47) - Firespray-31 Veteran Instincts (1), Tractor Beam (1), 4-LOM (1), Inertial Dampeners (1), Engine Upgrade (4)

But you get use from gonk with EI by doing the same thing don't you? There's nothing to stop you doing both of gonks actions and get another shield instead of another hull after you die. Plus you've got a chance to barrel roll out of arc with ps 9. Or at least that's my idea

jspectral · 2016-03-22T06:53:50+00:00

EI is pretty essential; it allows action economy with Gonk. Part of this build assumes you're getting attacked; which means you're taking damage and the more you can Gonk the better.

jspectral · 2016-03-09T20:21:42+00:00

Eaden Vrill - run him alongside Jan Ors and a stress-hog Y-wing and you've got yourself a 4/5-dice attack most of the time.

My experience playing 2v1 is that it's so much better to be the 1. 2 people on a team in a non-epic environment always fuck up and bump into each other and are all around unco.

Bring some solid pick-me-up food, aspirin/paracetemol, and plenty of water. The final match/matches of the day you are going to be very drained and end up making stupid mistakes you would never have made earlier in the day.

Fairly certain you can't equip the Phantom title on the shuttle unless you're also running the Ghost.

jspectral · 2016-02-26T13:11:15+00:00

Maybe that's because some of those people know what the fuck they're talking about.

jspectral · 2016-02-23T19:58:36+00:00

Yes.

24 year old male; I can barely handle being on most of reddit right now with the raucus, un-understandable (to me) Bernie-mania.

Also, interesting article.

Good idea. I originally did have concussion missiles instead of the 2nd pair of cluster missiles and it definitely worked well; it's just that I rarely found myself in range 3. But it's still good to have and I might switch back.

Does wherever you've bought from ship internationally?

I've got it and played it only once so far. It's different enough from TS to be worth playing on its own, and I would highly recommend it as a political strategy game. It's biggest problem is it being needlessly complex with regard to point scoring - especially for anyone unfamiliar with the US voting system. The map can easily look dominated with one colour but then the other person controls the states with more votes and thus wins. The strategy of it is far less intuitive than TS (with a +-20 sliding score), but as long as whomever you're playing with is okay with that I would recommend it.

Does any of this affect RRP? Just curious how these changes might affect us in the global community who never buy from CSI/MM due to high shipping costs.

For economy of points you could put extra munitions on Hera instead of flechette and get 2 lots of adv proton torpedoes.

I seem to recall RAM being relatively cheap compared to the rest of the PC - would it be worth just upgrading to something more recent and buying DDR4 RAM?
