So ive been playtesting things i might take to regionals so i drove up to charlotte to play with their group and see how my squad would perform here is what i ran.

58 Boba Fett, Merc
35 Zuckuss, BH
21 Genohardian Assassin
20 General Whorm Loathsome
17 IG-86 Assassin Droid
17 IG-86 Assassin Droid
9 Battle Droid Officer
8 R7 Astromech Droid
x3 Mouse Droids
x2 Uggies.

Pretty fun squad with boba as the main attacker i was able to get off the double twin every time except on 1-2 attacks all day with his intuition. Zuckuss i ended up using more as a scare tactic and distraction piece then for the snare. I figured if i could get someone to rush zuckuss even if i losed him my ig's could clean up and i could set up boba for the next round, anyway off to the report.

Round 1.........mirror match vs paul on his map rancor pit
it was pretty funny when paul showed me his team and we both saw we had nearly the same team on the field. The only differance was he ran san hill and 2 Aqualish Assassins over my geno. I was outacted greatly he even hit reserves at the start of round 2. By round 3 it was over i won init by 1 and used my intuition to base my zuckuss on his zuckuss and i moved my boba to where i had line of sight to his last remaining ig (i killed the other a round before) boba and zuckuss. He tried to use his intuition to run his zuckuss away but mine hit on the aoo and stuck him to the ground. his boba tried to stay and help his boba survive. Turned out my boba stuck 90 on his, he killed my zuck with his boba, my turn my geno assassinates zuckuss (2 failed saves vs poison blade) and one of my ig's finishes boba. We played out the round then paul conceded. He did go on to beat a tough vong squad and a GoBuck squad so he did well with it.

Round 2 vs Sith on muunlist
I played one of the kids second round he ran Naga Sadow, Darth Krayt, and Darth Caedus. I basicly just turned his naga into a turret while boba spend 3 rounds trying to cut through krayts armor (with cunning that guy just wont die lol) he was able to kill some uggies and zuckuss before boba finished off the rest of his team. These kids are getting really good.

Round 3 vs Imperials on my map Jedi Temple.
Played another kid last round (sorry guys i forgot your names) he ran a palps on throne, arica, kir kanos and ISP squad that he played really well. He even came really close to killing my boba (i forgot kir had twin i thought he had double) in the end my igs firepower was just too much for him to overcome as they wiped out both ISP's and Kir.

Charlotte only plays 3 rounds so they gave me second as me and nick were both 3-0.

Learned a few lessons and some how to's on the squad.
#1 taking init isnt always the best option. I ended up only really needing to take it twice all day. instead letting your opponent go first you can move to see 2-3 targets each for boba and zuckuss and make them pick who they wan to get shot up or you can run into cover and let them chase you and have your ig's kill them as they advance.

#2 Scare tactics. I did this a lot and hit on it with #1 just wanted to point it out again, people will make moves they normally wouldnt make if they see that boba/zuckuss can get LOS to them. Vs activation control you can really make them think by setting up intuition correctly and forcing them to either move that piece that they dont want to or having them get glued down or hit with boba's 4 +18 cunning shots.

#3 Fragility. The squad is packed with firepower your main defence is your ability to glue things down and move away, and being able to run even if you lose init. I losed Zuckuss every game i played, but i didnt care he was used as bait every game too. Your guys need to stay protected as long as you can before they start taking the risks on tough shots. You will lose zuckuss and prob the geno every game but as long as you keep boba alive there really isnt much that can stop you.

So hope you guys enjoyed this ill post some other squad ideas and how they tested later on.

David

hey, nice squads, both of you!

@ emissary: dont you think it wouldve been worth it more if you if you had swapped a gran raider or ugo and vader for vader unleashed?

Oh ya! starter pack vader still packs a punch he isnt bad at all.

Andy did really well controlling arica, his only issue should not have been an issue at all. He was counting squares to where he wanted arica to move and found out he would take an Aoo from the sentinal his opponent made him make the move and killed arica even though he was still in the process of considering the move. Not the best way to handle it but nontheless Andy controlled the squad really well all day.

Look forward to traveling up again with katie to the release event.

Alright...might as well post on how poorly I did.

1-2

28 Dash Rendar, Renegade Smuggler
78 Yuuzhan Vong Ossus Guardian x3
60 Yuuzhan Vong Jedi Hunter x3
11 Advance Agent, Officer
5 Camaasi
12 Mouse Droid x4
6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2


Round 1 vs Nick and his DV squad on train station

Played alright really. Should have beaten him and would have had it not taken me two rounds to get into gambit (his palps on thrown was chilling there). So he won by 10 pts and it went to time, because well...that's the tendency when you play him.

LOSS

Round 2 vs Paul and his similar squad to Weeks (he was running San) on Bespin

Decided to practice on Bespin. He rolled a 1 right off the bat...so he brought in another droid. I really stood zero chance of winning this game. With his double intuit (boba and zuck) I could never get real close and was in turn chewed apart by his droids. It was...in all honesty...over in about 2-3 rounds.

LOSS

Round 3 vs one of the kids (sorry man I'm terrible with names) who ran Cad, gungans, jar jar on Train Station

Won fairly easily, but that could be in part due to him getting beat twice and realizing he was playing me on the losers table. Decent game, I had to run right after it was over. He plays real well and has come a long way since first joining our group. Jar Jar was an irritant but I avoided him and it was over in about 4-5 rounds.

WIN

I finished in the bottom of the group somewhere...who knows... 7th, 8th? All I know is that I didn't do too well and I was off my game big time. But I would have still gotten beat by Paul even if I had 2 round head start.
