A list and a half...

By vintagekd, in X-Wing

This is a Rebel Aces list I've been working on. The general idea is to have more defensive options beyond green dice. I think I've achieved that without losing too much offensive punch. The big offensive loss is probably the fact it is 3 ships. Any thoughts?

Kyle Katarn HWK + Predator + Blaster Turret + RecSpec + Moldy Crow

Biggs + R7

Keyan Farlander + Predator + Sensor Jammer + B-wing/E2 + Jan Ors

OR

Keyan Farlander + Opportunist + Adv Sensors + B-wing/E2 + Jan Ors

Biggs has a few options depending on the round setup. He can TL the biggest threat and have an evade from Kyle/Jan or possibly (likely pretty rare) even have a TL for R7, Focus, and Evade.

Kyle with Focus and Blaster can be pretty nasty. +Predator

The sensor jammer version of Farlander is a bit more defensive, but I'm not sold on sensor jammer as a whole. Predator help alleviate the need for taking TLs and getting the Focus+Evade from Kyle/Jan.

The opportunist version has a little more punch, and I think I prefer it. I worry that Farlander's PS is too high to make proper use of Opportunist though. It may not be the best fit for this particular list.

Definitely put Opportunist or PTL on Keyan, he NEEDS to have a sure way to get stressed.

When it comes out, Stay on Target would be a good option for Keyan as well.
