X-Wing - Refinery Raid - Sunday, December 16, 2012


DESCRIPTION
X-Wing is a new miniatures game from Fantasy Flight Games set in the Star Wars universe. Based on the Wings of War game system, X-Wing pits Rebels vs. Imperials in intense space combat. These are ship-to-ship dogfights in which players control the awesome ships of the Star Wars universe-- including X-Wing, Y-Wing, Tie Fighter and Tie Fighter Advanced. (Future expansions will include the A-Wing, Slave I, and even the Millennium Falcon.)

It is a time before the destruction of the first Death Star. (Luke and R2-D2 are not yet part of the Alliance and thus are not an option for players). The Rebel Alliance has learned of a refinery at the far edge of an Imperial sector. Intel suggests the refinery is guarded by a few seasoned pilots who are burdened with Academy Pilots sent to this distant station to gain experience.

At this stage of the conflict, the Rebels seek to disrupt trade and supply. This refinery, therefore, is a choice target. The Rebels dispatch two squads to attack and destroy the refinery. The Rebels are led by Biggs.

Pre-registration is required because there is a limited number of spots available.

We have so much interest in this X-Wing event that we've been asked to run a second scenario. So I will run the Refinery Raid scenario from our first event (with modifications made based on knowledge gained during the first run) on the same date and time.

You're welcome, Blake.

We'd like to take what we learned from this one and use that knowledge for another Commander event in the early New Year. I don't think we're likely to see a sweet prize like that again in the near future though...

Anyway, as we work on that new event we might pick your brain.

The continued feedback is appreciated. Overall, I'm pleased with the turnout and how the tournament unfolded, but, yes, we also have something to learn from the experience, too. Cheers.

The Battle of Yavin was a major battle of the Galactic Civil War that led to the destruction of the first Death Star and Luke Skywalker's first step to becoming a fully-fledged Jedi. It was one of the Rebellion's first major victories. Chad Boudreau of ComicReaders Downtown will run a Battle of Yavin scenario. This is a scenario based on "Dagobah Dave's Death Star Trench Run". Chad has increased the playing surface and made some modifications based his preferred style of play.

Pre-registration is required because there is a limited number of spots available.
