  1. I know this doesn't come up much, but I have to ask..  Has no one thought that a counter to this build could be homing missiles?  An alpha strike using 4 attack dice homing missiles would ruin Fat Han's day, as you would be unable to spend your evade tokens.

     

    Yes, using 3po would grant you an extra evade, but you couldn't use an evade from the evade action on the MF title, SO, you MIGHT be lucky to get 2 evades (1 roll, and one from 3po), but the likelihood is you'll only be getting one.  And against 4 dice, chance are pretty good some damage is coming your way.  Homing missiles at least help to mitigate the evade action granting a free evade.

     

    I see no reason why this couldn't ruin Han's day..

     

    Airen Cracken, Veteran Instincts, Cluster Missiles

    Lt. Blount, Assault Missile

    Bandit, Homing missile, Munition failsafe x3..

    the good thing about homing missiles too is that you don't spend your target lock to shoot them, you just require one to shoot the missiles, so you can still re-roll the dice.

  2. I'm not sure you can like waffles too much, especially if served with a side of thick-cut bacon.

    Well if your 5.7 and weigh 228 because you eat too much carbs like waffles then you would understand.

    On the other hand my wives best girly friend eats 5 strips of bacon and 3 eggs a day. She weights about 110, so I think I might switch over to that soonish

    That's because bacon and eggs fills you up and keeps you satisfied for longer.

    None of this pencil shavings stuff.

    Ps. Fat doesn't make you fat, sugar makes you fat.

    Oh and pre-congrats

    EDIT - too late, post-congrats now


  3. Sure, as long as you can keep the a wings in range of Roark's ability.

    I guess the other thing is that he will have a massive target on his head.

    Then once he is down, you only have 4 basic A wings, and 2 shots each isn't usually going to do much.

    Always worth a try though.

    Similar to a howl runner with swarm and black squadron ties ( or what ever they are called) with swarm.

    It's all good until that lynchpin goes.


  4. Sure - but its 2-3 attacks EVERY turn. Obviously not 100% bulletproof (but what is?). Just thought it could be advantageous to really push the Biggs meta as far as possible.

     

    Couldn´t you use a target Lock to reroll the Blaster Turret?

    you can use target lock, but you need to have the focus to fire again I believe, as the car says you need a focus to fire.  Check the FAQs though.  you would want the hwk not behind, as the range of the turret is only range 2.

    Why would you need a focus to use the target lock? It's not another attack. You only need a focus to fire, if you have a target lock you get a reroll.
    Yes, but you need to spend a focus to fire the blaster turret, so you would need a target lock from another source, or previous round.

  5. Mauler Mithel with Predator.

    So what woul you say is the best way to get mauler into range 1 in one piece?

    Mauler Mithel with Predator.

     

    This is a pretty good suggestion.

     

    You could also drop Academy Pilot #5 and spend 32 points on two Scimitar Squadron Pilots, which don't maneuver like TIE Fighters but have a lot more backbone, or on Soontir Fel + PTL.

    Some good options there, will need to get some interceptors and bombers though :)

    Night beast and then bump the 5 academies to Obsidians(to avoid predator and shoot before PS 2 rebel generics)?

    Good idea, I get so used to the bottom range ties
