[DangerShine Designs 363]

So, I recently designed and am still building/printing/assembling my CR90 board (scroll down for pictures) but it's close enough to being done that tonight will see it's first test-fight. My pal and I have agreed to start with a 500 point list that has no vehicles and I can't decide between Han and Chewie or Leia and Chewie.

Duck and cover and/or emergency stims is way more useful than Hunter (only works on multi-wound units), especially on Chewie and Han. I think the grenades are also wasted.

Your board looks great. But you can almost squeeze another unit of troopers for the price of the upgrades, which at a low point game is even more important

[Cleto0 219]

why not all 3?? They work well together and you will still get 3 core units. You were overloading your units, and as a more barebones army, you will be able to dish out a lot of pierce damage. 

Commanders: 

- Leia Organa (90) = 90

- Han Solo (120) = 120

Operatives: 

- Chewbacca (110) = 110

Corps: 

- 2x Fleet Troopers (44) + Scatter Gun Trooper (23) = 134

- Fleet Troopers (44) = 44

Total: 498/500

Commands:

- Coordinated Bombardment (1) 

- Sorry About the Mess (1) 

- No Time for Sorrows (2) 

- Reckless Diversion (2) 

- Somebody Has to Save Our Skins (3) 

- Change of Plans (3) 

- Standing Orders (4)

I love bombardment from Leia but on this map, i almost think i would leave it at home

Cleto0 has a point though. Heroes are hard to handle at smaller point battles because of all their keywords

The board looks awesome! How did the battle go?

I got my *** handed to me 🤣

my rebels started in the bridge and instead of letting the enemy come to me, i took the fight to them and got slaughtered by his Darth/Boba combo.

the board, however, was awesome fun. Just the right combo of close quarters combined with space to get around and some fun LOS challenges to keep us on our toes. A few changes to be made here and there but can’t wait for our next Corvette Run (for any SWG alumni out there).

I'd play either list except replacing Hunter for Duck and Cover, and the concussions for fragmentation. Surge to crit and red dice are better than black dice ignoring cover in my experience. Looks like a fun board to play on.
