So, my girlfriend very nearly cleaned my clock.(A Falcon list topic.)

By Aminar, in X-Wing

In an effort to try my Imdar Alpha List I built my girlfriend the following list. She's not incredibly skilled, but loves the characters.

This list still very nearly wiped me.

Chewie with Han Solo an C-3PO(AKA, the cheaper Better Han Shot First...)-47

Luke with R2-D2-32

Rookie Pilot-21

This totals to exactly 100.

I feel like it outtanks Han Shot First by a mile while packing nearly the same offensive punch. Chewie took around 18 damage before going down, and I'm pretty sure Luke took more.

And a Rookie X-Wing is a Rookie X-Wing.

Were I to Optimize it I'd put R5-P9 on Luke and add the Falcon Title to the Falcon. But she likes R2, so R2 it is.

I do think Han is overrated. What is really good about Han is his pilot skill of "9" - outside of that Chewbacca is way better in my opinion. Any Falcon + 2X build is pretty solid, though.

I would consider dropping C-3PO and Han from the Falcon. Give Luke Draw their Fire and give Chewie Veteran Instincts and a Navigator. That should allow Luke to draw some of the hits from Chewi to allow him to last longer. If they go after Luke you can keep Chewie following close behind in their wake using Navigator to avoid getting bumped, getting out of arcs, and getting range one shots.

Having either Chewie or Luke left alive at the end of the game would be a tough prospect for most opponents.
