  1. I think ethans version from gencon is probably stronger.
  2. I think you said it well on the cast, it's a better ketsu
  3. Why on earth are you protecting dutch though? The points from wedge could be used to not take a basically naked y wing
  4. Id assume youd put selfless on Dutch since hes not doing anything beyond passing locks. Not sure what wedge is doing in that list though, maybe jedi insurance?
  5. im so confused, are there scorches available or not, can i sign up for scorch plz?
  6. it was Ben and Alexs list. In my actual defense, when you asked which list you should play I did repeatedly suggest that one.
  7. I liked this because you told @Boom Owl to git gud,(git gud @Boom Owl) but also that's a good analysis on ship design and how it impacts the game
  8. I actually love the first order as currently constructed, and with the new tie coming in, they seem to be prepped to get even better. Kylo is a true ace, the sf platform is very versatile, the ups is still an incredibly strong platform, and there are several cool/strong abilities on the tie fo. Mark Moriarty ran a very similar build to the "zack and chris special" at gencon (thanks alex and ben) those kinda meld the rainbow of cool stuff the fo has, On the other end, My boy, milwaukee guy, krayt on top on top, Tim O won the madison hyperspace with 5 optic fanatic tie SFs, and then there's also the well publicized kylo 2ups. There's plenty to do with this faction and I think we're just starting to break it in.
  9. this seems like a good way to setup target lock calc on a target, also yes
  10. My football interest has been waning for some time, i skipped the 14/15 nfc championship game to attend my first x wing store championship. X wing sort of replaced football as the thing i deep dive/over analyze. The only Wisconsin sport i follow particularly closely is Bucks basketball which anyone whose been in earshot of me during a hyperspace trial can confirm
  11. i have maybe a dozen games? but ususally my opponent had some idea of what was happening, i think blount is more hype because you have this stupid cheap extra ship that can randomly give you an extra die as opposed to "just" rerolls. Horton ususally was hanging outwith cassian wedge and failed barrell braylen when i played him, which may have affected my opponents willingness and the lists ability to set him up
  12. 4 red dice and a burden of execution thats, well, it's low, its really low
  13. I've found he doesn't get them as often as you'd think
  14. Jokes aside I think Max is actually my favorite dev, iirc he was the lead dev on wave 3 which turned out super cool.
  15. Correct, and that it exists is proof that it's time to fire max!
  16. All lists pulled from hat should be valid! pricing based on individual pilot and other upgrades when? All lists pulled from a hat should be valid!
  17. in 1.0 i strongly believed that you probably needed to focus your guns on the regen target while you still had them on the table, especially if you don't have a more expensive endgame piece or something that lets you deal damage unconventionally, I probably have more games against regen corran than anyone on the planet (thanks nathan). in 2.0 regen is mercifully toned down, but force users are still incentived to dip out and recoup, even if it's not as belligerant. I don't have a solid strategy for 2e, but i know there are some 1e lessons that have changed. I will take shots of opportunity at regen ships in 2e. If i've got exactly one range 1 shot on a regenner, i'll take it, as where in 1.0 shooting a full heath corran or poe with just 1 ship was probably a waste of my time if i didn't think i could follow it up the next turn or two, or if the noble and fair r3a2 wasn't involved. I think the biggest thing that has to be taken account with the regen ships, is understand where their half point thresholds really are, and don't count on them as points you have until they can't regen above half. I'm sure i'll end up getting more games in against regen in the near future, since i seem to be motivated to play again. I'll try to note anything else i find that works
