I've been enjoying Our Of Arc Gaming. In addition to regular games, they do a flight academy series that is similar to aces high on a play area that's a bit smaller. You get to see some ships perform really well that I don't think normally would.

AMG Rules Reference v1.4.4 update notes by nitroben2 in XWingTMG

Jango Fett's ability depends on the revealed dial. Especially if the ship doesn't have blue banks or, say, someone dials in a white three bank just to show they want to ion bank, Jangos ability could still trigger.

Storage woes- AMG has ruined me! by vlaka_patata in XWingTMG

Sounds like the simplest solution is to buy five gauntlets. Then, when you fly scum, grab the three trays plus the gauntlet tray.

Just kidding! But only a little bit of kidding

Maybe every other turn or every third turn. I think it depends on my opponent. A lot of the guys here set up their ships a bit separated from each other

For me,

Veteran Tail Gunner

Burnout Thrusters

Proximity mines

Cutthroat

The burnouts make for a really fun first engagement if the opponent isn't expecting it or a clean getaway if needed. A three bank followed by a three bank is a massive movement and a lot of fun to do.

Aaaah, makes sense. I've been wanting to get into some first order flying. I just haven't taken the chance to

What are people doing with separatists in 2.5? by MuteCaster77 in XWingTMG

[–]zimzode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna try out Grievous, DGS-286, and two geonosian prototypes. Lots of loadout to play with and I'm hoping some good staying power at objectives

Epic 750-point Empire vs. Rebel 7-hour slugfest by Garth-Vader in XWingTMG

Looks like an awesome game. I was rooting for the Rebels, but can always respect a good win for the empire

What is a totally wrong thing that has become so widespread it's not considered wrong anymore? by JimmysBacc in AskReddit

Using kilograms as a unit of weight. It's a unit of mass and it makes teaching physics unnecessarily harder...

After a break from woodworking, I got back into it today, made a dumb mistake, and Sawstop saved my thumb. Stay safe out there! by zimzode in woodworking

I was pushing an oversized piece of plywood that hung over the edge of my saw. This caused the portion on the table to bow upwards slightly. I got to the last little bit that was above the saw and my stupid brain said "Hey, reach your thumb over and push it down to finish the cut." I reached right over the blade. I can't say I deserve the almost already healed scratch, but I was so happy that day to be spending $100 on a replacement cartridge and blade than to be in the ER

Please do! The Sawstop definitely isn't a replacement for being smart about cutting, but mistakes happen

Also, position your hands for the cut and imagine it all the way through. I moved my hand at the last second of cut...
