A trip to the city of Maryborough last night produced the following couple of games of X-Wing, very very, cool...
In the first game my Rebel X-Wing was easily a match for the two TIE Fighters
Suffered some minor damage getting a hang of the rules
But, it a short time...
Scratch x1 hostile
Scratch x2 Picked the last one off from extreme range
A few pictures of the excellent miniatures
I think the X-Wing is more of a fighter, while the Y-Wing is more of a fighter/bomber
The redoubtable Millennium Falcon
The ride of Boba Fett
TIE Interceptor
Darth Vader's ride
The quick and nimble A-Wing
Game 2, this time I played the bad guys
The Y-Wing was slow but packed a lot of firepower, here my TIE Interceptor explodes under a hail of turret-mounted cannon fire
With the standard TIE following just a few turns later
The victor
The hanger
X-Wing is a great game. It reminded me of this old classic that we used to play a lot when I was living at the Thiepval Barracks.
Good stuff Al! Good stuff indeed!
