Regionals are over, and now we can have some fun!

Last night my friend Scott and I played silly jank lists and they were amazing. We ended up in a cluster-cuss in the middle with bombs exploding all around us. I dealt more damage to my own ships than he did. Nera died with 3 shields intact thanks to Proton Bombs. His Resistance Bomber had two Weapons Failures and so had no attack dice except at range 1; eventually he shed one of them and returned to HWK status. Nym barely got a shot off because of bumping, but still bombed things to death (especially friends!).

It was a beautiful, beautiful game.

I flew:

*"Crimson Specialist" with Trajectory Simulator + Ordnance Silos + Proton Bombs + Engine Upgrade


 * Rebel Nym with VI + Extra Munitions + Bomblet Generator + TLT + Havoc + Trajectory Simulator + Genius + Long-Range Scanners


 * AP-5 with Sabine Wren and Flight-Assist Astromech

AP-5 could coordinate a boost or roll from his buddies, letting them aim their bombs. But he spent most of his time bumping and not helping because of Scott's excellent maneuvers. I eventually thanked him for his service by proton bombing him to death.

I don't remember all of Scott's list, but he bombed the snot out of my ships with a U-Wing (Seismic Charges and Extra Munitions) and Resistance Bomber (Cluster Mines and silos), and Saturation Salvo'd with Nera. I was delighted to see a U-Wing on the table, and it was wrecking things too!
