Two 150 point TIE Swarm Video Battle Reports I posted on youtube
Published on 14 November 2012 - 19:11:26

Here are two video batreps that took place at GameKnight in Winnipeg.

These are my first two games playing X-Wing Miniatures. I know that the tactics I used here might be suicidal once Assault Missiles come out.

First battle was my Vader and 10 TIE Fighters vs Kyle and Scott's 4 pumped-up Rebel Heroes (both sides at 150 points):

The second battle was my Vader and 10 TIE Fighters vs their 7 Rebel Starfighters (again, both sides at 150 points):

Anyhoo, very fun games. I'm really hoping for the Kessel Run event in the GameKnight store can get the Kessel Run package!

 nice, I look forward to watching. The biggest game I did was all heroe on both sides (only a 3 point difference, Wedge, Luke, Biggs, Garven, Dutch, and Horton vs Darth Vader, Steele, howlrunner, mauler, nightbeast, darkcurse, wingundark, and backstabber. My rebels pulled out the victory with a surprising 3 kills from Horton

Is shooting behind you to the back of backstabber an achievement?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVf4mhXmSY8&feature=plcp

Looked very entertaining. Kind of scary seeing what a tie swarm can do. I think your opponents should have tried for a middleground of one or two pumped guys that were well supported by generics. Might have helped a bit. Just theory though.

I don’t get to game nearly as often as I’d like. As a result there is roughly an 86% chance that anything I post is totally untested theoryshould not be taken as fact.

my internet speed hindered me from watching it, I had to wait till I got back home to watch it. Though great report, you did a good job

Nice report. Thanks for taking the time to share that.

 

Further evidence that the TIE swarm is the list to beat right now. That kind of Firepower is scary..

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, nor violence to anyone, but they've always worked for me.

 Great report, thanks for including some of the post-game discussion. i always enjoy that part after our games :)

Tie swarms are so scary right now…..don't know if that was intended by the game designers…..hopefully the A-wing will balance it out

 

Great reports…well done
