Corran + Dutch + Blount

By Rogue Dakotan, in X-Wing

I played this list yesterday:

Dutch + Ion + R7-T1

Corran + FCS + APT + R7 astromech + Veteran Instincts

Blount + Ion Pulse Missiles + Hull Upgrade

I did pretty good. Dutch got Corran his focus lock combo in one turn to tear apart a shuttle. The ion missile kept a firespray at bay for a round and Dutch's turret worked a phantom down to one hull before it flew away again.

Corran's double attack (and some good dice) won the game for me. His droid saved his ass a few times too.

I don't usually do rebels but I wanted to try the new ships.

Trying to think of other lists that utilize this synergy.

Dutch (possibly with R7-T1), An Ewing with FCS and R7 are really the things I want in this squad. The rest can be whatever.

Any ideas?

I like it.

As much as I have trended towards Imperials in the past few months, I have to admit being a really big fan of the E-Wing.

And the last few games I played that had non-named Z-95's proved they are not just gnats that you can ignore. They have a hard time landing hits with no Howlie mechanic, but they are not chumps either like I think a lot of people expected them to be.
