So for a upcoming event I was thinking about this list-

Chewbacca, Draw Thier Fire

Jan Ors, Ion Turret, Squad leader

Biggs

What are your thoughts on this list? Changess?

How would you set up and fly?

Thanks

What is the plan for Jan? Remember, her ability causes Stress and the HWK isn't all that well equipped to deal with it. Furthermore, you may want her taking her own action instead of giving it to one of the boys so they can TL + Focus.

hmm I forgot about the stress bit, what about dropping her for-

Dutch, Ion Turret, leaves 4 points tho, ideas?

What about:

Kyle with Moldy Crow Ion Turret and Recon Spec

Chewie with draw their fire

Biggs

Still the same basic idea of your first list, just without the stress

Jan handles stress just fine... because no one will be shooting at her. She will turn the YT into a nightmare. I've run a list like this one. It is good at dropping ties quickly.

That's right. And since she shoot with a turret, she doesn't need to be that maneuvrable. Just aim to have at least one ship in range 2 to shoot at. Making the Falcon shoot at 4-5 dice is really nice indeed.

I would remove squad leader though. Maybe replace it with swarm tactics.

The lone X-Wing will likely be the most tempting target for your opponent, so Biggs' ability may be superfluous here. I would consider Tarn + R7 instead.

Tarn? The event is next weekend, and UK doesnt have our transports yet lol

How about then

Chewbacca, Draw Thier Fire

Jan Ors, Ion Turret, Nien Numb

Biggs, R2

Nien Numb will help to clear the stress, not sure if it will need it tho, as I plan on moving slowly anyway. but it might help late game

If biggs actually gets to K-turn, then your opponent is doing something wrong. I'd prefer Falcon title on Chewie instead of the R2, personally.

Another option is to put Determination on Jan to avoid those nasty Pilot crits.

I have run a list like this before. I agree that Biggs is not a good choice. He is an obvious target already and it can be hard to maneuver to keep him close to the other ships because you have to worry about his firing arc. I think dropping him for a rookie pilot so you can upgrade chewie to have a gunner or some other upgrades makes way more sense.

A b-wing with advanced sensors is another really durable option.

My suggestion:

100 points

Jan + Ion Turret (30)

Chewbacca + Draw Their Fire (43)

Dagger Squadron + Advanced Sensors (27)

You could swap out Draw Their Fire for Nien Nunb on Jan. DtF should be more useful unless they really manage to focus down chewie first.

This might seem random, but most people agree to drop Biggs, far enough, what about something random like

Chewbacca, Draw thier fire

jan+ion turret

Outer rim smuggler?

could be fun and random

It is a neat idea. The biggest issue I see with this list is that its going to be hard to do enough damage because jan can do one damage at most and the smuggler is only rolling two dice. However you get a lot of durability and everyone has turrets which I like a lot.

yep but Jan can use her ability of Chewbacca or the ORS depending on positioning, and the new rules you only need to win by 12 point if I am correct? Meaning I can play a bit more defensive
