Been a while writing this up. it was terrible day for me, but here goes.
I took almost the exact same list as I did in November due to having 0 opportunity to play xwing in the two weeks before the day. Which consisted of Wedge with engine upgrade, R2 Astromech, and Push the Limit (He kills things) Biggs with R2-F2 ( helps stop other two dieing horribly), and Jan Ors with a Blaster Turret, Recon Specialist and the moldy crow. (helsp wedge kill things, and is reasonably killy herself)
game 1 wa svs Jim, he had Chewbacca and 2 Blue Squadron Pilots with heavy laser cannons. A frightening amount of firepower+hull points(29!!). Managed to knock out the 2 bwings as soon as I could then onto Chewie. Managed to get Chewbacca to 4 hit points remaining before I ran out of ships. Made a terrible decision of going for range 1 shots, should of stayed at range 3. Cest la vie.
Game 2 was v Keith and was my only win ( I was his only loss on the day >_<) He was flying 4 A-wings with push the limit. Three of them had concussion missiles. Spent the first few rounds flying around the board. I spent most of it circling the middle. Whenever they came round for a shot, Wedge was able to boost into arc and basically one shot an A-wing each time. it was a massacre. Only 1 missile was fired. I never lost a ship. Jan Ors did lose her blaster turret though. Which was annoying. Ended the game with a ridiculous amount of focus tokens that she couldn't get rid off. Was at least 12.
Game 3 was versus Alex (Rodent Mastermind). he has Lando with Nien Nunb and determination. Ibitsam with Push the Limit and a Rebel Operative with Blaster Turret and Recon Specialist. I hate Falcons. I figured Ibitsam was the greater threat and went for her. She went down easily enough, well as easily as B-wings go down anyway. After that the other two just finished me off. 3 Ships rebels just cannot deal with falcons.
Game 4 was versus John. He had a rebel swarm of 2 a-wings, 2 B-wings and a rookie pilot with a r2 Astromech. the problem I had was that they had way more firepower, and pretty much the same amount of defence as me, but with more hull points. I killed what I could, the A-wings died as did a B-wing I beleive. But just ran out of ships.
Game 5 was vs Ryan, who had Howlrunner with Push the Limit, Mauler Mithel with Squad Leader, Backstabber, a scimitar squadron bomber and an academy tie. My Relaince on Biggs meant I clumped up. Should of just split my force. Yeah Wedge would of died, but splitting up the swarm's firepower, would of made a massive difference. As it happened, I flew into it and died. To be fair I was somewhat demoralised by my prev losses.
So 1 win, 4 losses. Came tied second from bottom with 3 others. But killed more than them, so was top of that little pile. Something I suppose.
Got another in March. Probably going Imperials. Get points for having the highest place Themed list for the A New Hope, My list is so bad, but it's fluffy, so theres that
