Scum and Villiany with Five Proton Bombs

By Nyxen, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So I must admit the proton bomb is my favorite upgrade in the game, hands down. If I can find 5 points in a list that can carry one, I will. Here's my take on the most wanted box on release day.

Emon Azzameen (36)

-intelligence Agent (1)

-Andrasta Title (0)

-Proton Bomb X3 (15)

Syndicate Thug (18)

-"Genius" (0)

-Bomb Loadout (0)

-Proton Bomb (5)

Syndicate Thug (18)

-Unhinged Astromech (1)

-Proton Bomb (5)

Is the list competitive? Maybe not. Is it funny as all hell? Absolutely.

I never thought of using Intelligence Agent on a bomber, but it actually has great synergy with bombs. I know I'll be flying a bomb-laden Emon Azzameen when I get a copy of Most Wanted.

Hmmmmm if you drop 1 proton on emon and change 1 to a seismic instead, you can fit ion turrets on the y's. Then you can shoot backwards the whole time with all ships.

I like it though, just looks like a lot of fun.

I love seismics and proton bombs. This list looks fun as hell.

This list inspired me with the whole 'chase me' tactics. So tonight I'll be running

Kath Scarlet (38)
Ruthlessness (3)
Proton Bombs (5)
Recon Specialist (3)

Boba Fett (39)
Ruthlessness (3)
Proton Bombs (5)
Recon Specialist (3)

Total: 99

at least until scum is released.

Alternatively for scum, a y-wing could be subbed for kath, who gets an extra die when shooting backwards. That frees up enough points to put 3 protons back on emon, who I think is key here with his advanced bomb shooting.

Though a y-wing doing a 4 k-turn THEN dropping a proton bomb with genius is just down right hilarious.
