I need to learn how to list build... X-Wing Edition

I went to my first x-wing tournament and spoilers: I lost spectacularly...   managed to go 0-5 for the day, thus cementing my place as worst x-wing player in the world...

 

I took 3 X-Wings, Wedge Antiles with R2-D2, Marksmanship and Advanced Proton Torpedoes; Biggs Darklighter, with an R2-F4 unit; and Luke Skywalker with  Veteran Instincts and an R5 Astromech. 

 

First game was against Vader and his cronies, a Tie Advanced, 2 Tie interceptors and a regular Tie Fighter...

 

There was a bit of swarm tactics shenanigans with  the Advanced and the Interceptors but I did manage to take out one of the Interceptors and nearly put paid to the Tie Fighter but my opponent manage to kill Wedge and Biggs thus depriving me of my first win of the day....

 

Next to lose against was 4 Tie Fighters and a Firespray-31...   the Fire-Spray puts out more fire power than I would have thought....     lost Wedge and Biggs again....

 

The Third match up of the day was against Tie Advanced and some Tie Fighters? possibly, lost all 3 x-wings in this game, did manage to do the Marksmanship+Advanced Proton Torpedoes and took out the Tie Advanced with one salvo......

 

Followed by the fourth, a mirror match of sorts, 3 X-Wings; Luke, Wedge and Biggs only with slightly different equipment, managed to lose Wedge and Biggs, which by this point was becoming a theme...

 

It should be pointed out, and this is obviously clutching at straws, but at this point I had managed to kill some of the opposing force in each game and only once did I lose all of my ships.

 

This all changed with my worst, and most ignominious loss  of the day and this I will put down to bad luck....

 

This was against 2 Rookie X-Wing Pilots and Chewbacca in the  Millenium Falcon, I managed to lose Wedge and Biggs as usual  but this time it was in one round of shooting. Things were going reasonably well I had taken some shields of the enemy and he had taken a couple of me. I was lining up for the kill 3 abreast when the Millenium Falcon and one of the X-wings had range of me. He rolled to hit on Biggs and scored 2 Hits and a Crit, I rolled to save and came up empty. With only 1 shield to go, that was taken followed by a face down damage card then the face up take 2 damage critical card. With that Biggs was out. His X-Wing shot next, this time at Wedge and managed to do exactly the same thing and again I pulled the 2 Hit critical card and there went Wedge....

 

Luke went soon after and that was the end of the tournament for me...

 

Oh well, he was very appoligetic but some days these things just happen...

 

So that is how I became "The Worst X-Wing Player In The World"
