So a week from next Wednesday, me and some friends are going to be playing a big game of X-Wing. Since I'm the only one with very many of the figs, I'll be suppling the lists. I've got 11 60pt lists for them to choose from, but I'm a little worried about the breakdown. Should we do Teams or a Free for All? Thoughts suggestions?

Absolutely do teams. Someone always gets screwed in a free for all setting by being the only target of multiple other players. Teams help to alleviate that and also quicken turns as you can just do simultaneous side fire at each pilot score. For big games like this, anything that saves time is worthwhile.

Noted. Teams was already sounding good, that's just more good reasons to move that direction.

If you do choose to do free for all, I'd highly recommend doing big ships only. Otherwise there aren't enough hit points to survive a gang-up.
