FFG Europeans X-wing 2017: Day 1 (picture blog)

For those wondering I went 5-4, finishing in 97th position. Enough to put me in the top 1/3rd of the competitors. What I did was take a lot of pictures, including one of each of my opponents and their lists. I had an amazing time and really want to thank

Swag, swag, SWAG!

Swag, swag, SWAG! No Store Championship this weekend, so this blog post is all about swag! Everyone loves swag! Don't you love swag? I love swag! And lately more and more players have taken to handing out custom (non-official) alternative art cards in tournaments. (I'm trying to start the movement in Belgium) It's in no way a requirement and no-one will look at you dirty if you don't bring anything. It's just a little extra to be nice. Look at this picture of all amazing cards I was gifted by other players. So if you think you're kind of an artist or know someone who draws stuff and you're allowed to use their art, you can make these cards yourself pretty cheap! For those that want to, but have no idea on how to begin. Here's a small guide! Creating the card Today I'm going to show you the process by making an actual card out of this amazing picture of a TIE fighter I drew! I've long thought about which pilot to use, but ar...

Just keep swimming

Just keep swimming Alright. Last weekend's tournament at Cartazimut (Mons) didn't go as planned. I brought my Kanan/Biggs list from the European Championship and got destroyed. I ended up 17th out of 22 with a 1-3 record. What happened? Round 1 - Yassin - Jan/Keyan/Thane My opponent was a newer player which probably explains the unusual (at least for me) list. Jan with Predator, TLT and Nien Numb. Keyan with Advanced Sensors and Push the Limit and Thane with R2-D2 (droid), Alliance Overhaul title and Chopper. Going into the match I felt it would be rather easy. Having a double TLT shot with the Ghost would ensure me almost guaranteed 4 hits on those 1-agility ships. However Yassin flew way more aggressive then I  expected which meant I had to switch around targets every turn to have some use of that Fire Control Systems. I traded Keyan for Biggs and then a lot of the Ghost for Jan.  Ezra ejected before the Ghost blew up and I ended up chasing Thane. I was c...

Prepping for Belgian Nationals

Prepping for Belgian Nationals Belgian Nationals are coming up soon and I have a problem... Several planning issues and work-related stuff interfere with my regular scheduled training. And now the FAQ and Guns for Hire are released. So there is a disturbance in the meta and I have to prepare for it somehow. Time to start brainstorming. If you have not read the new FAQ , be sure to read it and get up-to-date. There are some huge changes in there concerning Biggs Darklighter, Jumpmasters and "Genius". I'm not going to go over them here. There are some excellent blogs and podcasts out there that have talked about it in detail :) What I want to do now is pick between 4 lists. 4 lists which I think will work well in the new meta. 2 of them are older lists, but untouched by FAQ v4.4.0. The other 2 are new lists, using the new hotness from Guns for Hire: "Harpoon Missiles".  Thug life Aka Quad TLT Y-wings. I talked about it in length on my previo...
