Taking this to a tourney. What do you guys think?

By darkevans, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Playing in a tourney next weekend and I'm really considering running this squad. The last tourney I was in at the same store had several random squads but that was before the new wave.

Rear Admiral with VI and Isard

Brath with LW, HLC, and Stealth

I figured i'd keep Brath on the outside waiting for Chiraneau to strip some shields and then clean up with Brath. I think it covers most phantom builds and other two ship turret builds.

What you guys think? Any Changes?

I don't know what to do about it, but the Rear Admiral doesn't look like he's doing a ton of damage for 50 points.

I'd swap Isard and vi for expose and EI and LW and stealth for predator.

Don't worry about cloacked phantoms, they hate 4 dice attacks.

I like your Brath build because it meshes really well with the Stealth Device and your list composition. I do agree about ditching Isard and VI in favor of a more powerful attack. In all likely hood, any Phantom build will have initiative anyway, so you're not really gaining much with VI.
