Imdaar List (Rounds not Final Game)

By Englishpete, in X-Wing

Providing the CR-90 is in my hands in time I am really liking this list for my Imdaar squad.

Chewbacca (49)

Han Solo (crew)

Push the Limit

Millennium Falcon (title)

Nien Numb

Garven Dreis (26)

Tarn Mison (25)

R2-D6

Veteran Instincts

It has some nice synergy and should be resilient to.

Thoughts?

If I'm using the Han Solo crewman, I'm going to get a Weapons' Engineer as well.

I did think about that but then opted for Garven over a Red for the points

I'd drop VI on Tarn. Use a 2-point Astrometric instead. Tarn's ability works better if he is targeted before he fires. Having a low PS helps him. Or just run Biggs/Hobbie instead of Tarn.

I'm thinking of this IMP list:

Krassis: Ion Cannon, Rebel Captive = 42

Dark Curse = 16

Backstabber = 16

RGP: + PTL = 25

Total= 99

Will likely give me intiative and the whole list shoots at 5/6 so a decent PS bid. What I plan to do is run Krassis and Curse straight at the enemy formation. Krassis will most likely take the early hate, but thats fine. All I need him to do is ion and stress some ships. Curse will likely be ignored. I'm going to flank with Stabber and RGP. Depending on where the enemy ships line up I might run stabber and RGP in a loose 2 ship flanking formation. This list is designed to cause chaos. The two ships coming straight at you are a pain to shoot at but you can't ignore two ships on your flank throwing 3 dice attacks.

My big issue will be against swarms and falcon builds. Swarms will be able to out shoot the two front ships, but hopefully the flankers can swoop in early enough to thin the heard. Falcons will be hard to Ion and it really doesn't hurt them much with their turret. I might just try to kill off the Falcons escorts early to weaken the overall firepower the squad can put out.
