Played a first game using the Epic Format Tournament Doubles rules. I took a list that consisted of Kyle, 2 B wings and 2 A Wings, paired with Ten Numb, Luke, Chewie, and a Rookie X-Wing. We faced 4 Ties (3 Academies and Howlrunner), Mauler, 3 Interceptors of various flavours, and 3(!) Firestorms.
I took lots of pictures, some better than others.
Lessons learned
1. A-Wings with deadeye and Assualt missiles spoil Tie-Swarms day. When they hit. A third A-Wing with missile would potentially wipe out swathes of a swarm.
2a. Advanced Proton Torpedoes are range 1. This would have been something to read before I added them.
2b. They also rock when they are combined with a focus token from Kyle Katarn, and then you end up with 5 hits on Boba Fett. Large ships should fear these.
3. HWK with Kyle and Reconaisance Expert and a turret. Making things die AND making stuff around it more deadly.
Perhaps the best game of X-wing I have had yet, and I haven't had a bad one. Although the 3 hours tournament time limit feels....hopeful.
