List: Exposing the rear (Admiral)

By Keffisch, in X-Wing

Rear Admiral Chiraneau — VT-49 Decimator 46
Expose 4
Rebel Captive 3
Mercenary Copilot 2
Experimental Interface 3

Crits at all ranges, 4 dice with either TL (preferred) or Focus.


Black Squadron Pilot — TIE Fighter 14

I am leery of that Agi 0 however..

C&C welcome

That looks like a solid list. But maybe drop the BSQs to Academys and have 6 points to do whatever with?

I would drop the Rebel Captive and add Draw Their Fire to all BSP.

If will help keep the Admiral alive a lot longer if you can save him from all the Crits he'll likely receive in return fire. 12 hull points is a lot to land crits on. Rebel Captive won't help much because even with it on the Admiral, I am still going to focus him down first. He's the most dangerous ship in your squad by far.

Looks like it would be a solid list though. Screen the Decimator with the BSP meat shield and have the Admiral blast crits all day long.

I like the name even better than the list. I may have to steal this and tweak it. Something like: "Leaving Your Rear Exposed."

Decimators without Isard/Agi die all too quickly from my experience. And if you want any real threat whatsoever you need Gunner.

Similar to yours, I was able to try out:

Chiraneau+expose+experimental interface+mara jade+gunner = 61

Whisper+VI+FCS+ACD = 39

Oh man that list was fun. Was able to blow a shuttle away in two shots (granted he used vader, but still). There is something just so satisfying about getting two 5 dice shots with TL+(pseudo) focus in a turn with good maneuvers (in theory having whisper shoot first to strip shields, then have Chiraneau shoot landing a bunch more and a crit). Chiraneau's build kinda forces you to focus on him, leaving whisper for the end game.

Exposing your rear is also known as "mooning", so I'm pretty sure you should name the list "That's No Moon".
