Just to throw something out there

By RexlarBrath, in X-Wing

i was reading the FAQ about not being able to use the wrong faction dials for ships that don't match that faction and was wondering: if you could build a squad with one ship from each faction what would you build (within the standard 100 point squads)? Don't ask me how I got there but I think it'd be interesting to see what everyone comes up with. Maybe like Han Solo and RA Chiraneau with a scum ship would be a crazy combo, though if you're doing a 100 point squad you wouldn't have a scum ship there.

Fully upgraded Han plus 3 academies? Haha

Whisper with Jan Ors and Ties

Z Swarm with Blount, Airen and Howlrunner

Corran Horn and Echo

Oicunn and Arvel!

falcon + phantom. Why settle for imba when you can be twice as imba?

TIE swarm with Howlrunner and Serissu! It would be as if every ship were Ibtisam but without the stress.

Rexlar w/ HLC ,Garven w/ R2-D6 & VI, 2x Binayre Pirates w/ deadman switch.

2x IG-88 with hivemind title, Captain Yorr w/ Nien Nunb & Kyle Katarn- for all the segnor loops

Biggs, Howlrunner, Serissu, Cracken, Alpha Squadron Pilot

Jonus, Biggs and as many HLC-scyks as possible

I did ask voidstate about adding an 'unrestricted' build option to his squad builder in case you want to do scenarios where one side is flying captured ships , perhaps as a ruse (like in ROTJ) etc

My FLGS is hosting a pirate tournament in Dec. Cross faction is fair game. No uniques or named pilots. And only one of each ship (I think - I'm not playing in it so I'm not 100% of the rules).

Squint + Lambda + Y

Jonus w/Bodyguard

Rhymer w/2 x Proton Rockets

I still need to figure out how to spend the other 44 points.

Etahn A'baht

Howlrunner

As many Z's as I can cram in there.

or

Defensive Biggs

Howlrunner

as many Alpha Squad Interceptors as I can cram in there

The Biggs and Howlrunner combo is just unfair. You have to fire on Biggs and Howlrunner gives the rest of your squad ghetto Target Lock. So good.

Biggs

Howlrunner

Serissu

as many TIEs as I can cram in there

You have to fire at Biggs, Howrunner gives you offensive re-rolls, Serissu gives you defensive re-rolls.

Howlrunner (18) 100pts of frustrating three faction madness. Dat defensive reroll on Biggs doe.....

Serissu (20) + DTF (1)

Biggs (25)

Binayre Pirate (12)

Binayre Pirate (12)

Binayre Pirate (12)

Alternatively,

100pts. Who needs Howlrunner when you have FCS? L. O. L.

Serissu (20) Swarm Tactics (2)

Biggs (25) R2-F2 (3)

Blue (22) FCS (2) FlechetteTorpedoes (2)

Blue (22) FCS (2)

Biggs and as many scum ships with bodyguard as I can get? Just how high can we pump Bigg's agility?

That's a wonderful idea but bodyguard being an elite pilot talent you'd have a tough time getting a bunch of ships with it, let alone with a lower pilot skill but you could still do like sabres or green squadron. Unless you give Biggs r2d6 and veteran instincts.

Dutch, Hobbie, Vessery, and Jonus? If that fits.

Jonus + Determination + Shield Upgrade and 4 Talas with Assault missiles. Alpha strike from hell.

Ouch. That would hurt a lot.

Biggs + Carnor + Kagi.

You cannot Focus

You must TL Kagi

You must shoot Biggs

And with 22 points remaining, you can flavor to fill. If you can go with a 3rd faction, you could add Serissu to give Biggs 3 agi. But I'm sure there are plenty of other things you could also do.

I think I would try to fly Howelrunner with some B-wings.

Also bodyguard is unfortunately a unique card, so you can only field one at a time anyway.

But hey none of this follows the rules too well anyways it's all for the creative fun!

Probably:

Dirty Fat Bottom Kath

Backstabber

Biggs

Serissu

Both Biggs and Serrisu (and kinda howlrunner) want so badly to play with others. Bodyguard, rebel captive and many other crew sound fun for cross faction madness.

Roark comes to mind too!

Roark + ion

Echo

Scychs

That would be real fun.
