DagobahDave 1,621 Posted November 2, 2014 One of the players in my league suggested an idea for a tournament in which each squad has to include 1 misfit ship -- that is, a ship that's generally considered to be suboptimal and sees very little tournament play. When I say "Maarek Stele" you'll know exactly what I mean by "misfit". What ships would you nominate to be misfits? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AtomicFryingPan 1,825 Posted November 2, 2014 Any tie advanced other than vader. Arvel. Generic E-wings Rebel operative. 2 AgentV and DagobahDave reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DagobahDave 1,621 Posted November 2, 2014 Any tie advanced other than vader. Arvel. Generic E-wings Rebel operative. Yep. Good. That matches my picks so far. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeoHowler 475 Posted November 2, 2014 The generic E-Wings. HWKs without turrets. Outer Rim Smuggler is kinda weird. Winged Gundark. Most TIE Bombers without ordnance. Arguably Ten Numb. Arvel is usually weird and frustrating to fly. 1 AgentV reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeoHowler 475 Posted November 2, 2014 Rebel operative. I like Rebel Operative. Try one with Tactician and a turret, they rule. 1 Waylander39 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AtomicFryingPan 1,825 Posted November 2, 2014 Generic phantoms Fel's Wrath +1 for fels wrath!! Can't believe I forgot him lol! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DagobahDave 1,621 Posted November 2, 2014 How about these TIE Interceptors:Alpha Squadron Pilot Avenger Squadron Pilot Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AtomicFryingPan 1,825 Posted November 2, 2014 Yeah I'd say those 2 plus Kir Kanos. Really any Interceptor that can't take push is a misfit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIE Pilot 3,501 Posted November 2, 2014 I'd make it a squad of all misfit ships. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DFocke 163 Posted November 2, 2014 Looks like I use a fair share of misfit ships on a regular basis. 5 Kyrios Mirage, Jolleyone, Plainsman and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spike IT 57 Posted November 3, 2014 Looks like I use a fair share of misfit ships on a regular basis. The question is - are you having fun with your misfits? Hopefully you are. Always try to have fun no matter what you are flying...and Fly Casual! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealStarkiller 3,446 Posted November 3, 2014 Winged Gundark Vader w/o upgrades. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marinealver 8,068 Posted November 3, 2014 How about 35 points on a non-unique pilot. So like Red Squad with R7-T1 + Advanced Proton Torpedoes + Shield Upgrade. Or Shadow Squadron + Gunner + FCS + SPA. Or Green squadron with PTL + Homming Missiles + Shield Upgrade. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
X Wing Nut 2,309 Posted November 3, 2014 Lieutenant Lorrir have never seen anyone play him Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marinealver 8,068 Posted November 3, 2014 Lieutenant Lorrir have never seen anyone play him I tried him once. He got focus fired down down first before he could do anything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreyHart 128 Posted November 3, 2014 @DagobahDave - This would be a great idea for a holiday tournament. I'm seeing it as "The Squadron of Misfit Toys". IF you should happen to run it, let us know how it goes. And pictures, or it didn't happen. So far I'd have to agree with the posts on who/what's a misfit. So many cool pilot/ship ideas, and some just fall flat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YwingAce 2,546 Posted November 3, 2014 Wrath, AHHHHHvel Crynyd, Alpha + Avenger Squints, All B-wings because you know Y-wings, any Advanced besides Vader, and of course Rhymer, and all Hawks without turrets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealStarkiller 3,446 Posted November 3, 2014 All Y-Wings without turrets ... HAHA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DagobahDave 1,621 Posted November 3, 2014 I don't think we're going to dictate what kinds of upgrades the ships will have, since you still want to be able to make them as competitive as possible. How about: Gray Squadron Pilot "Hobbie" Klivian Jek Porkins Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YwingAce 2,546 Posted November 3, 2014 All Y-Wings without turrets ... HAHA Actually, they aren't that bad without turrets. Just a little overcosted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radzap 513 Posted November 3, 2014 Winged Gundark...I'm so perplexed about that guy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kyrios Mirage 588 Posted November 4, 2014 All Y-Wings without turrets ... HAHA Okay... *digs out Engine Upgrade* Let's rock! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about: Gray Squadron Pilot "Hobbie" Klivian Jek Porkins Hobbie is a god. One way to do it would be to get Juggler's numbers on which are left out of tournaments.
