Yes, just x wings. Can anyone point me at some good lists just using the one ship type?

Here's some thematic ones:

Red Squadron - 1 Flight

Garven Dreis — X-Wing 26
R2-D6 1
Squad Leader 2
Experimental Interface 3

Red Squadron Pilot — X-Wing 23

Red Squadron Pilot — X-Wing 23

Rookie Pilot — X-Wing 21

Red Squadron - 2 Flight

Red Squadron Pilot — X-Wing 23
R2-D6 1
Outmaneuver 3

Biggs Darklighter — X-Wing 25

Rookie Pilot — X-Wing 21
R5-D8 3

Rookie Pilot — X-Wing 21
R5-P9 3

Red Squadron - 3 Flight

Rookie Pilot — X-Wing 21
R5 Astromech 1
Hull Upgrade 3

Rookie Pilot — X-Wing 21
R5 Astromech 1
Hull Upgrade 3

Rookie Pilot — X-Wing 21
R5 Astromech 1
Hull Upgrade 3

Rookie Pilot — X-Wing 21
R5 Astromech 1
Hull Upgrade 3

-----

Combined the above 12 X-Wings come to 299pts which is enough to upgrade R5-P9 to R2-D2 for an even 300, and to 'designate' Luke.

1 Flight is the 99 pointer. 2 Flight jumps to 101 with R2-D2.

I've been running a 4 xwings list for a while now in prep for a store tourney, it's done well against big ships and swarms but struggles a bit against whisper (whenever I get a clear shot I fluff the dice rolls and the rest of the game he dances around out of my arcs on 1 or 2 hull)

Wedge + Swarm Tactics (31)

Biggs (25)

Rookie (21)

I have to admit that I like to turn one X-wing into a Z-95 and go for some nicer pilots. Otherwise it's hard to get the points.

Thanks guys, I'll give these a whirl.

100 pts of X-wing superiority.

Wedge + PtL + R2-D2

Luke + VI + R5-P9

Wes + VI + R3-A2

Simply put, line up some shots and pull the trigger.

Obviously has some shortcomings in the current meta, but it has a lot of tools in the tool box that can win if used correctly;

Action denial, Stress inducement, Shield Regeneration, It does all of this and then some.

Only started using it last week, but it's great fun and good vs Phantoms, Large base ships, and Rebel small ship swarms.

It's a little weak vs HLC and without careful piloting you could overlap blockers an lose your very important actions but, it is one of the most fun lists I have flown ever using only X-wings (and no Biggs).

I like Wes with VI and R3. Stripps off tokens for everyone else and causes stress. A great phantom killer if you can get the shot.

If he wasn't the same price as Wedge, Wes would be in my tournament list. Alas, he is 1 point too expensive and I can't fit the correct EPT on Wedge because of that 1 point.

I know the feeling, trying to figure out who's best between Wedge, Luke and Wes can be tricky.

Biggs: R2-F2, Stealth Device

Luke: Squad Leader

Wedge: Swarm Tactics, R2-D2, Shield Upgrade.

Biggs actions R2-F2, Luke gives Biggs focus.

Wedge gives Biggs PS9.

After Biggs dies, opponent must chose between naturally defensive Luke or upgraded Wedge.

Wedge w/ Predator

Garven Dreis

2 x Rookie

I still think a Y-wing with Ion Turret isn't bad in such a list.
