Cruisin’ in My ’31: Star Wars X-Wing

By Barclay Montgomery | April 19th, 2018 | Categories: Star Wars Tactics, X-Wing 2.0

Emon Azzameen is back at the controls of the Andrasta, and he is ready to drop bombs with his riding style. Don’t get to close to this bomb dropping Firespray!

Emon Azzameen is the ultimate Scum bomber in Star Wars X-Wing. With the ability to drop bombs using the 3 turn or 3 straight, his bomb reach is unparalleled. He will be able to throw bombs into the faces of any ship that faces him on the tabletop for sure. Let’s start loading out his Firespray for battle. 

Andrasta is a great title that can add 2 additional bomb slots to the Firespray. Since Emon’s main mission is to bomb other ships, this can give him more chances to wreak havoc! This pairs perfectly with the next upgrade. 

Bomblet Generator takes up 2 bomb slots and allows Emon to drop a bomb every turn when he reveals his maneuver. This works out great since you do not have to add any additional upgrades, such as Extra Munitions, that will only give you so much bombing ability. Every turn Emon can throw one of these babies!

Cluster Mines is another great bomb option for Emon. As an action, you can discard this card to drop 1 cluster mine token set. The surface area of this bomb is massive and can block up a high traffic area on the star map. After a ship overlaps each of the Cluster Mine tokens, they must roll 2 attack dice and take any damage icons. Enter the bombing bounty hunter crew!

Cad Bane is a crew option for Andrasta that makes it so that your bombs are way more effective in damaging ships. Your upgrade bar gains an additional bombs slot, and you can pick any that suit your bombing tastes. Once per round, when an enemy ship rolls attack dice due to a bomb detonation, you may choose any number of focus and blanks results that must be rerolled. This makes it so that your enemies have more chance of harming themselves with your bombs! What a great bomber combo for Scum squads!
