Star Wars Miniatures – The usual Tuesday thing…
by Totengraber on May.13, 2009, under Miniatures
Fred, Joe and I met up yesterday to play the usual Star Wars Miniatures over at Games To Die For. We always play 150 points and use the most recent rules, except for Gambit scoring. I’m not a big fan of three-player games, but until we get more people to play, it’s going to be difficult not to do that. There are a couple of people who have expressed an interest, but haven’t sat down to play yet. Before playing, I traded the new Lobot to Fred for Moff Jerjerrod.
Joe’s List:
- Canderous Ordo
- Mandalorian Captain
- Mandalorian Scout x4
Fred’s List:
- Arika
- Echani Handmaiden
- GenoHarradan Assassin
- Lobot
- Chiss Mercenary
My List:
- Greedo
- Bossk, Bounty Hunter
- 4-LOM, Bounty Hunter
- Garindan
- Jaraiah Syn
- Dengar
- Zuckuss
- General Dodonna
We ended up playing on the Endor Base map, which really sucks pretty bad since there’s a huge lack of cover for those out in the trees. For the most part, Fred and Joe fought each other until Fred used Arika’s “Blaster Barrage” and damaged some of my guys. I started firing in his direction, but managed to do little. Fred’s Handmaiden kept getting shot at and passed no loess than 12 Evade checks before dying late in the game. Arika did Blaster Barrage a few more times killing several of my Bounty Hunters. Three times Fred benefitted from Lobot’s Reinforcements ability, bringing in Zuckuss and a Human Scout twice and 4-LOM once. In the end, it came down to my 4-LOM vs. his Arika and GenoHarradan Assassin. My 4-LOM failed many times to hit him and Fred got one more Reinforcements to go off before I conceded.
All in all, it was a good fun game. I liked the army I played.
Earlier this week I pulled an Emperor Palpatine on Throne from a booster pack, so I think I should build a list with him in it.
