Newb options - Opinions please!

By ishotfirst, in X-Wing

Hey all! I'd like your help with a tourney list. Please note the following criteria.

- You only have 2 Yt-1300s and 2 Bwings available to fly with (any and all legal upgrade cards are available)

- You have only played one tournament before, roughly 15-20 games of Xwing

- You want to win the tournament, but not have people hate you (Fortress...)

GO!

So you dont own a core set?

So you don't have an x wing or did you swap it, sell it?

Just asking cos it's an odd combination.

I'd do something like this...

Chewbacca, C-3PO, Gunner

Blue Squadron Pilot, Advanced Sensors

Blue Squadron Pilot, Advanced Sensors

100 points even.

2x Blue Squadron B-Wing with Advanced Sensors

Han Solo with Engine Upgrade

Keep it simple. B-Wings can fly some red maneuvers without losing their action. They're even able to collide with enemys and still focus. Han is just good. EU will allow him do dodge some arcs when needed (try getting him behind the enemys, B-Wings will distract attention).

Ah, sorry. I own a bunch of stuff, just trying to build a specific list for someone using only those 2 ships.

Ah right, i just thought it was odd to want to play in a tourny and potentially not have the basic elements of the core rules.

I have this list as a possibility already. Thanks! Another very similar list replaces C-3PO with marksmanship because of the synergy with Gunner.

I like this list as well. Seems like the 2 blue plus Falcon lists are pretty straightforward (not a ton of room for innovation).

How about some double YT lists?

i thought youd didn't want people to hate you :P

Lando and chewie grind!!!

but in all seriousness use lando since the man gets no respect.

then partner him with a couple blues with fcs and some c3p0 action with gunner

or straight numbers.

ORS + falcon title

ORS

2xBlue

(99pts)

This is an even 100 and makes Chewie a tanky monster of death:

Chewie + Predator + MF Title + C3PO + Luke = 56

2 Blues = 44

Send the blues in front of Chewie to tangle with their main force, then send Chewie around a side and let him tear into whoever.

You can evade every turn if you like and use predator to get your re-rolls. If you miss then Luke kicks in and you get your re-rolls with Predator and Focus-lite with Luke. Chewie hits hard every turn and is pretty tanky. The B-wings are basic, but still naked can do some damage.
