I participated in what I hope will be one of many X-Wing battles at my comic book store. It was also an opportunity to break in the new gaming mat Matthew and Kawika bought me as a cheer-up gift. I played with three strangers in a 300-point battle (what you see there). I teamed up with the other guy to be the Imperials, flying four TIE fighters and two TIE interceptors. Although the battle didn’t reach a conclusion, I did pretty well, I only lost one TIE.
