I've finally picked my list...i think

By tiefanatic, in X-Wing

So i'm going to a tournament in Glen Burnie M.D. soon and i think i've finally picked my list, (after asking you guys about this before).

Carnor Jax

2x Royal Guard Pilot

Delta Squadron Pilot

Your thoughts?

…naked Interceptors? :blink:

looks fine to me.. if its a list you want to run, are familiar with it and think you will have a good time and still be competitive i'd say go for it.

I normally don't play imperials to often, though i really want to try out predator on royal guard pilots...

Without upgrades interceptors will struggle. You really need push the limit on them to keep then out of firing arcs. You will be very green dice reliant with your list. If you roll well you can put out pretty decent damage. I would really fear wedge or outmaneuver.

I cannot pilot Royals or Carnor with anything less than PTL, Hull AND Shield upgrades.

They are just too good like that. I can't do anything less.

Yeah, that's the problem, i'm not very familiar with it

Sorry to say you'll get eaten by the many many falcon lists.

What exactly do you want to play ? 3 interceptors ? 2 interceptors + 1 defender ?

It is not going to work so well with those naked interceptors imho.

Interceptor bleed stress really well so PTL and other abilities do wonders, even the simple predator can boost damage output.

Running things naked might let you pack more in but you'll end up doing less.

If you switch one RG for Backstabber, you have six points for PTL on the other RG and Jax. This makes your list significantly better and you don't even lose much firepower if you play Backstabber well (and you could argue two PTL ships more than make up for it). Jax and the RG become more maneuverable and survivable, and your PS is exactly the same.

The Delta is a nice piece in this list. I like the overall construction here.

I actually really like the list with those changes. I'm currently working on lists with Brath but I may give this a go if I don't like how those go.

Brath is a beast if the dice are kind, if you can afford it it's well worth mounting a HLC.

Generally, when i play squints i use 2.

That's not a bad idea, i think i'll use that list, thanks!
