I've been toying around with many crew carriers for my Snap/Juke A-wings with varying results (TIEs, ARCs, U-wing, K-wing, HWK, etc) but I think PS3 Auzituck is the winner. Tanky enough and can hit hard if you are lucky. A-Wing: Green Squadron Pilot (19) Snap Shot (2) Chardaan Refit (-2) Autothrusters (2) A-Wing Test Pilot (0) Juke (2) A-Wing: Green Squadron Pilot (19) Snap Shot (2) Chardaan Refit (-2) Autothrusters (2) A-Wing Test Pilot (0) Juke (2) A-Wing: Green Squadron Pilot (19) Snap Shot (2) Chardaan Refit (-2) Autothrusters (2) A-Wing Test Pilot (0) Juke (2) Auzituck Gunship: Wookiee Liberator (26) · A score to settle (0) Operations Specialist (3) · Jan Ors (2) -- TOTAL ------- 100p. --

Sorry about that. Now that I've been toying around with it these two weeks I think it's well worth its full price.

It was on sale like two weeks ago...

In casual games I don't mind the phones because it has never been a problem. I mostly play against adults who use phones for work related things and when the phone rings we just stop the timer for a moment. My phone is always on the table because I use it as a timer and for documentation (I take pics of the table before and after every combat phase so I can analyze the game afterwards. Naturally I ask if it's ok with the other player.). Tournaments are held usually during weekends so there are no work related calls to answer. Also there is no time for documentation.

Also Bossk only kicks in after you miss with both of your TLT shots. Bossk really really needs a Gunner effect to be useful.

Happy friday! I'm going to have some fun rollercoaster action in local amusement park today. Also might visit FLGS for a little plastic crack treat on my way back. And then some X-wing in the evening with my stepson. This is turning out to be a great friday. As for the new game mechanics I'd like to see, I've been fantasizing about a Missile Turret that gives you one missile slot and grants you ability to fire your ordnance out of arc. I first had an idea of a disposable turret (Hot Shot Blaster style) but I think it might work better with missiles.

Spanish is my favorite

In Finland we laugh at the literal and complete finnish translation of the red Core Set. They only made a small print of Cores because Finland is a small market and everybody speaks english as a second language. Now that I think of it it would have been hilarious if we had TIE Torjuntahävittäjä (Interceptor) or TIE Kehittynyt (Advanced). Almost the only reason aside of joke factor to buy the finnish core is that it's couple of euros cheaper because of EU customs regulations making it cheaper to import things printed in the official language.

My friend uses Carnor with OL and Crack Blacks and it works suprisingly well. In other news: It's time for my morning coffee...

And triple espresso macchiato needs to be nerfed. EDIT: Seriously, people should do caffeinated squad building more because we need fresh list ideas every day.

I just hope someone brought double Phantoms to our Store Champs because they are the one thing my list eats for breakfast...

That's why I said "counter-meta" doesn't win Worlds... I might be a bit privileged but in my local community there is some kind of honor code and the more skilled players don't just bring textbook meta lists to the table. There are meta elements but mostly just fun. This is game of skill and luck and they are both variables that affect each other.

I made this meme for one of many "Make A-wing Great Again" threads: I myself finished third in a casual tourney a couple of weeks back with 3xSnap/Juke Greens with Zeb(OpSpec) and Rex, and I'm pretty confident on taking them to upcoming store champs... EDIT: I've been trying out some other OpSpec carriers (Heff, Ahsoka, Braylen) but Zeb/Rex has been by far the best...

I love that "You brought WHAT?!?" and the surprise factor when I present my list, be it triple A-wings with double Rebel TIEs to 100/6, extremely risky Bro-Bot list to an escalation tournament at this day and age, or Moralo+Triple-Bots with Binayre kamikaze squadron (as in Dead Man's Switches with all the exess points) to Team Epic.

I do that most every day with my stepson. He lives with his father in another town but every other weekend he visits us and we put our theories to the test.

That's exactly what I meant with "counter-meta". I really like it when I can challenge myself and put my mind into the game even when not playing. I scout the local meta by attending to even the smallest tournaments and start almost every morning with nice warm cup of theorycrafting (with a side of espresso).

In addition to "meta" and "anti-meta", there is also "counter-meta" which is my favorite. While a good "anti-meta" can in right hands turn out to be the next "meta", playing "counter-meta" is an infinite ongoing challenge. "Counter-meta" may not win you the Worlds or Continentals but can easily do well in Nats, Regionals and Store Champs.

Right! You get this when you try to make squad in "show expansion content" window and not in the actual builder...

You can also have four with Predator and Glitterstim...

Isn't that just plain Team Epic? EDIT: Not that there's anything wrong with Team Epic. I just literally minutes ago made one TE list for me and my stepson...

She was talking about the ship. Just checked...
