 X-Wing Campaign Mission

 We are on our 3rd gaming session of the co-op x-wing campaign 'Heroes of the Aturi Cluster'.

This week’s mission was 'Secure Holonet Receiver', we had to disable all 9 satellite relays and identify satellite relay '12' for the slicer techs to secure a new Holonet channel, for a rebel spy.

Our Squadron for this mission was;

Squadron Leader James 'Barefoot' (X-Wing)

Kev ‘Ripper’(Y-Wing)

Neil 'X-Ray Zulu' (X-Wing)

Pete 'Deuce' (X-Wing)

John 'Moose' (X-Wing)

Andy 'Vertigo' (Y-Wing)

The setup 

The objective satellite relays are in the centre of the board, Two flights of TIEs one each in opposite corners (diagonally) and our squadron in the corner between the two TIE groups.  We have to disable 9 satellite relays, without destroying them and we also have to secure relay '12'.  We have a HWK-290 with Slicer techs on board to secure the holonet, which has to survive. 

The Plan

 In the Y-Wings, Vertigo and I (Ripper) will focus on the satellites and escorting the Slicers Techs, while the X-Wings try to clear the TIE's.  Deuce and Barefoot paired up on the right flank, with X-Ray Zulu and Moose paired up on the left.

The Action

 

Summary

Another great game in our X-Wing campaign; again this mission went down to the wire.  All members of the squad added to the success of the mission.

 

Vertigo was making short work of the satellite relays, taking out at least 6 of the 9 relays and finding the all important relay '12'!

 

Moose and X-Ray Zulu combined very well in taking out 6 of the 8 TIE's in they sector; with Moose softening up the TIE's for X-Ray Zulu to finish them off!!

 

Deuce and Barefoot failed to take out as many TIEs, but did manage to occupy 7 TIE's, 2 Interceptors and a Shuttle and survive to tell the tale!!!

 

I managed to keep the Slicer Tech alive and get them to relay '12' to complete the mission. 

 

Until next time;

 

Roll high! unless you need low then roll low!!
