Fianlly found a list I love to play

By Spaceman91, in X-Wing

I'll start by thanking everyone who post list on here because I have shamelessly nicked ideas. I have tried lots of lists, trying to find one I can fall back on.

It still needs a tweak before im 100% but until my transport turns up i can't do much about it.

Here it is

Garven + R2 Astro

Biggs + R2 Astro

Rebel Operative + ion turret

Blue Sqd + ion cannon

I only have a problem that the X-Wings didnt do as much as i liked. I think i need to replace Garven for something with a little more punch.

So what do you guys think?

If you love playing it, you are 90% of the way to where you want to be.

Not sure the plain R2 units are doing much for you.

Interesting list. I've never found Rebel Operatives worth it personally. Roark is much better for the cost. I wouldn't ditch Garven though. He's probably the best X-wing in the game.

Maybe change the Rebel Operative to a Gold Squadron Pilot with ICT, and then lose the two R2 astromechs to keep it under 100?

I always worry about Y-wings but I will try that. And for the person who thinks I should drop the R2s, I think you might be right. They didn't do a lot today so I may have to give them something else, maybe a FCS to the blue or up him to a dagger

I don't see a way to fit Roark in, but if you could manage that, it would be much better for the squad than a gold squad pilot.

Biggs

Garven ( I want tarn )

Blue + ion cannon

That would do it but I would be going second

I think we MUST crush the rebel scum.

Biggs + R2 Astro

Does Biggs live long enough for R2 to do anything? There might be a better use for that point.

Biggs died on the last turn because my opponent was lucky/skillful enough to keep catching garven without biggs in arc. Even more impressive when they were next to each other( about an inch apart ) the whole time.

Sigh... another Rebel..

Never worry about Y-wings. With an Ion turret they are burly, easy to fly and irritating to your opponent. Add them and proceed to chuckle cruelly.

Mah hahahahaha. That ok?

It is truly a sad day… But everyone is allowed to make a choice. Even if that choice is the wrong one.

After which I will laugh, and laugh and laugh as my Phantom/Defender list tears through Biggs turn one and the rest turns 2–4.

Woke up this morning and an improvement struck me

Hobbie' 25pts

+ R2-D6 1pts

+ Push the Limit 3pts

Biggs 25pts

Rebel Operative 16pts

+ Ion Turret 5pts

Blue Sqd Pilot 22pts

+ Ion Cannon 3pts

What about that?

P.S I do play imperial, I just haven't found a list I'm comfortable with yet. I'm trying a mini swarm + flanking interceptors but my brain is still getting used to how the squints work best.
