I have an upcoming tournament and looking for some advice.

Wedge 29

Swarm Tactics 1

Wes 29

VI 1

R3-A2

Biggs 25

Bandit 12.

Wes shoots before any phantom and any non VI falcon. Stresses them and takes a token. Wedge does wedge things and passes PS9 to Biggs. Biggs protects Wes and Wedge. Z is there for any shots.

100pts

Should be good against phantoms, not sure about falcons.

Swarm tactics is 2 points. I've ran a similar list but no droid on Wes and used predator on Wedge. Works fairly well in the few matches I used it. Wes is fun to mess with the other player. Double Down may be right, a well flown Falcon could be tricky

My thoughts on the droid is to stress a phantom before it can attack. Since it won't be able to recloak the rest of my squad cam fire on it with only 2 evade dice.

Good luck getting a phantom in Wes' arc! An engine upgrade would help with that perhaps...

I agree it isn't a hard phantom counter but I think it'll let me be somewhat versatile against various random squads. To add an engine to Wes I'd have to downgrade Wedge.
