Your favourite 2 Large Ship Builds

By Asmodi, in X-Wing

Starting to try out all my ships and now looking to run a couple of multi large ship lists.

I have or will have

3 x Firespray

2 x Shuttle

2 x Falcon

Whats your favourite builds?

Cheers

2 Shuttle? How could you possibly run Shuttles up to that many points and still remain good?

I believe the 2 x Shuttle was just referring to the models available, not the build ;)

3x Bounty Hunter is always good :D

Otherwise, off the top of my head, there's:

Krassis+HLC

2x Omicron with HLC

99 points

With 2 shuttles available I like

Omicron Pilot, Gunner, Adv. Sensors, Engine Upgrade (33) x 2

Bounty Hunter (33)

Not as good as the shuttles x 3, but still a powerful list.

Otherwise, you could do that build, but with one shuttle sporting an Engine upgrade and an ion cannon to interrupt enemy ships and make them easy targets for the heavy lasers

Krassis Trelix + HLC

OGP + HLC

OGP + Ion Cannon and Engine Upgrade

I'm a fan of 2 shuttles and 1 firespray. Though I did hear of a list over the weekend doing well with 3 shuttles and 1 firespray. Must be very good with the shuttles as they are bare bones shuttles.

I'd say some upgraded shuttles x2 and x1 firespray is a good list to try out however.

I am also looking forward to trying some 2 shuttle and 1 decimator builds when it is out and x2 decimators, etc, or Decimator and firespray.

2 Shuttles and 1 Decimator is a build I too am looking forward to trying out. Oicunn with a Doom Shuttle at his side could be devastating in the right hands, and it could get even nastier once Wave 6 hits and we get our hands on Accuracy Corrector. Paring that with Autoblaster teamed with a Doom Shuttle and Oicunn means you could potentially have 4 guaranteed hits on a ship in one turn.

I have gone 26-7 with my dual hlc firespray list

Boba + HLC + Predator

Kath + HLC + Predator + Rebel Captive

Good grief.

I'd be tempted to switch Predator out for Marksmanship on Kath, but let's face it, you can't argue with those numbers!

I know about 4 shuttles list taking good place at some european regional.

Im runnig now in our local leage:

BH + tactician + s. charge X 2

Royal guard + PTL

Really like this list, trowing stress token to phantoms!!

Firespray

shuttle

vesory

complete with 11 pts to upgrade as you choose

They're not out yet but I'm looking forward to see how a pair of IG-2000's do on the field. I don't think you'll be able to run 3 because I think they will all be the same cost of 36 points.

Of course you can; anecdotal evidence doesn't account for many variables. Not to say that marcsoul is lying, or that the list is bad necessarily, but those numbers aren't the reason the list has potential.

Well of course my list won't work for anyone, just like any list that people run successfully doesn't mean others will have the same result.

A big part of why I've done so well with it is I've been experimenting with two ship firespray builds for about 6 months now, and have played well over 100 games with them, the vast majority on vassal.

So not only am I very good on flying them, i know their strengths and weaknesses as well. Plus by playing most of my games on vassal I have faced a very wide variety of builds and player skills.
