Greetings. My girlfriend and I play X-wing together pretty frequently. She is the rebel scum and I am the mighty Empire. Her favorite ship is the Falcon(mainly due to the movies), so I recently purchased her a second one.

Now, we have come up with two list ideas, and I just wanted to see which you thought would be better. Both lists use Chewbacca and Lando.

Option 1:

Chewie

-Gunner

-Hull Upgrade

-Falcon Title

-Draw Their Fire

Lando

-Predator

-Nien Nunb

Option 2:

Chewie

-Predator

-Hull Upgrade

-Falcon Title

Lando

-Gunner

-Veteran Instincts

-Nien Nunb

As you can see, the difference is pretty subtle, but sometimes it is the subtleties that make the difference. The major difference is switching Gunner and Predator to get Lando Veteran Instincts to help deal with Phantoms.

We would really like to know your opinion on these two builds, but if you have other suggestions for builds with Chewie and Lando we would accept those. We have at least one of every set except the Tantive IV. Thanks!

Kinda liking the DTF on Chewie as a way to keep Lando on the table longer.

Though, with Lando doing greens more often than not, he may benefit from PTL over Predator. Gives him a Focus/TL, which beats the Focus/Predator.

• Ditch Hull Upgrade. There are far better ways to spend 3 points. At a minimum C3-P0 if you have him.
• Predator is really good with Gunner, since you can use it on both shots. Consider that it is useful in multiple scenarios:
  • Vs. high value, high PS targets, you reroll twice. Awesome.
  • It murders low PS filler ships, since you can reroll 2 dice, especially when you have a focus token. If they somehow manage to completely miss the first shot, gunner gives you another one anyway.
• YT-1300 + Gunner mostly counters named Phantom's with Advanced Cloaking Device, even if you are a lower PS than the Phantom.
• When running dual YT-1300 I personally think it is very important to also have gunners on both, to keep damage output high.

So I would suggest something like the following:

1)

Chewbacca + Predator + Gunner (50)

Lando + Veteran Instincts + Gunner (50)

2)

Chewbacca + Gunner (47)

Lando + Gunner + Predator + Millennium Falcon (53)

Tradeoffs:

1): Lanodo's free action pass is going to be a target lock, which is anti-synergistic with Predator.

2) You lose PS9 vs named Phantoms, and Lando has a giant target painted on him.

Unfortunately, I do not have C-3PO or a second Gunner card.

You have Luke. That will do for now.

You may want to consider VI on Chewie so either one of the YTs could be the first to move and shoot.

Unfortunately, I do not have C-3PO or a second Gunner card.

You could try:

Chewie + Gunner + Draw Their Fire

Lando + Luke + Millennium Falcon
