Rodafowa 2,483 Posted July 14, 2015 I found Nova Squadron Radio about three weeks ago and listened to 26 episodes already. Must have been clocking about 3 hours a day, maybe more, but I have a reasonably long commute and always try to take a lunch break :-) I'm going to start listening to the Scum & Villainy back catalogue soon. I think these podcasts are great for newer players like myself and have been recommending them to fellow newer players I know. So please do release them - hopefully you can find a willing editor... Duke Yeah, I did pretty much exactly the same thing when I started getting into the game in a big way about six months ago. Nova Squadron and Scum & Villainy are to a large extent responsible for the mumblemumble quid I've spent on X-Wing this year. So... thanks? 1 MajorJuggler reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Biophysical 15,515 Posted July 15, 2015 I, for one, would love hearing S&V commentary, even if it is a few months old. 3 Toqtamish, Rodafowa and MajorJuggler reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrfroggies 945 Posted July 15, 2015 Looks like we may have found our editor. We are in talks now and working on the details on what fruit will be in their personal sound room. 3 SeaRaptor, Toqtamish and EvilEd209 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sekac 3,311 Posted July 15, 2015 Fruit is part of the deal?! And here I thought the pay was "awful". Glad to hear you boys will be up and running again. I check almost every day for a new episode... 1 mrfroggies reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I check almost every day for a new episode... We are in talks right now trying to update the show and figure out a more regular schedule. The random schedule was nice in the beginning but I think we want to be more regular now. We have more members so we should be able to get a regular quorum together to talk X-Wing. I think this will be better for fans and for us. 2 Spider and Antipodean Ork reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeaRaptor 396 Posted July 15, 2015 I just want to say thanks to all the podcast teams for the work they put in. It is greatly appreciated and enjoyed. I didn't start playing until this past February, but I went through all the back episodes of S&V, Nova Squadron, and Kessel Run and enjoyed all of them!Just because it is old, doesn't mean it's not entertaining. Publish them anyway! 3 Rodafowa, Sideslip and Sekac reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrfroggies 945 Posted July 16, 2015 Looks like Alex is more then half way done with some of the editing, so maybe we will finally get one of these old episodes out soon. 7 Antipodean Ork, VaynMaanen, EvilEd209 and 4 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zombane 5 Posted July 16, 2015 I'm a big fan of the podcast, as well as Nova and a new British one called Cloud City Radio. Can't wait until you're back up and running. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you are interested in having a list taken for a spin, please submit it here! Here is one I've been running for a couple of months: Scum: Kath Scarlett + Tactician + Predator + Inertial Dampners Torkil Mux + Recon Specialist + Blaster Turrent Palob + Moldy Crow + Blaster Turret + Predator I know its weak point is swarms, but it is murder against high PS two to three ship builds.

An interesting Keyan build interaction that I have had a lot of success with but don't hear much talk about is Keyan + Squad Leader + Exp Interface. My most recent and current favorite build with this is: Keyan + Squad Leader + Exp.

If you are interested in having a list taken for a spin, please submit it here! Corran HornPtl AS R2-D2 Engine Stressbot title Y Title Y with generic r2 or Prox mines This list hands you free wins against a lot of 2-ship lists. IG or IG/firespray lists just fall apart under the stress and can't deal with bumper-Corran in the end-game or at the start. It has a better-than-even shot against almost every turret list. 50/50 against rebel and imperial swarms. It's nonsensically easy to play at a competitive level. I can't seem to convince anyone to try it, but I'm telling you...a mediocre player using this list with only 2-3 practice games can probably make a cut at a fairly large regional.

sozin 2,656 Posted July 21, 2015 thanks for the lists everyone! @Taste, that list is interesting; does it have enough stress to shut down a big boosting vt95? when I fly stress lists I tend to overkill the stress mechanic (ie stresshog and two stress blues) to make sure I can pin those fat #%^'s down.

TasteTheRainbow 8,636 Posted July 21, 2015 That Corran build can solo every build of decimator. If you focus/evade then only an insane string of bad luck can bring him down. If the Y's ever get it in arc they shred it really fast. Vader crew and buzzsaw whisper are a threat in combo(this is the hard counter I caught in elimination), but not much else. Against Fel/chirpy you can win about 80% whether the Y's go after Fel or Chirpy. Just pick the one that's easier to guarantee. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
