So last Thursday I finally got to start my somewhat long journey of playing 100 games with the Decimator. I felt pretty good after my games that night, besides winning my matches I’m getting better at knowing what I can and can’t do with the ships.

My Current list #1 – Rebel Captive instead of Mara. Much easier to use in end game when I’m trying to stay at range 3 with the Deci.

Game #1 Vs James – Win

James Ran:

Ghost – Kanan, Chopper, Recon Specialist, Ghost Title, Advance Sensors, TLT Attack Shuttle – Zeb, Phantom Title T-70 X-Wing – Red Squadron Veteran – Integrated Astromech, R2-F2, PtL

This match ended up being pretty close. I knew straight off the bat that TLT’s were going to be a pain, especially with his ability to shoot at the end of combat. Meaning that my Deci was going to be most likely taking 4 hits per turn just from the Ghost.

I managed to take out the X-Wing by the 3rd turn. I think I got lucky on my hit rolls and he came up blanks on evade dice. Soontir was taken out over a few turns then it down to Ghost and Deci. The attack shuttle was launched just before I took the Ghost out.

The end game became a bit of cat and mouse with my Deci doing 3 banks around the asteroid field to keep at range 3 (as I was on 2 hull at this point) and then boosting to keep out of arc. I luckily kept rolling 1 evade matched with opponents poor attack rolls to ward off any damage.

Game #2 Vs Mason (think that’s right?) – Win

My second game of the night was against young Mason.

Mason Ran:

YT-2400 – Dash Rendar, Kyle Katan, HLC, PtL, T-70 X-Wing – Poe Dameron, PtL, R2-D2, Ion Torpedos

Mason managed to nuke Soontir for the 2nd time in two weeks. He seems to be able to roll 4 hits at range 1, then I roll 4 blanks on evade dice. I really need to keep Soontir away from his Poe (He’s one hell of a pilot!).

I managed to take out his Poe then start working on his Dash. By accident (forgetting about the title) I bumped which probably saved me as next turn I was range 1, so I got a free round of shooting him. Next turn I finished him off before he could shoot back.

Game #3 Vs Carlos – Win

My last game of the night was against Carlos.

Carlos Ran (might of missed some stuff)

TIE Inceptor – Carnor Jax, PtL, Auto Thrusters, Title, Stealth Device, F/O TIE – Zeta Leader F/O TIE – Omega Leader – Com Relay, Juke TIE Fighter – Dark Curse

So right off the bat I got lucky and nuked his Zeta Leader. Flew past the rest of the swarm with the Deci and shot back into them. Deci did a big turn around the board to come back.

He spent most of his time going after Soontir. Managed to mop up the rest of his force without losing anything. Vader came in handy here for doing some final damage to ships who otherwise might of survived a few more rounds.

Carlos is new like me, so after the match I told him to go for my Deci as it hates fighting swarms and he hardly shot at it. We discussed his list and from my limited knowledge I felt it was a bit in between two staples. The Swarm and the 3 Ace type list. He should either go for more ships or less and give them more upgrades.

Thoughts for the night.

Happy with my performance. I can see I did get lucky in my matches, but I’m really “feeling” my list now and more confident in using it.
