2 Ship Rebel Survival List

By Englishpete, in X-Wing Squad Lists

A slightly different take on the 2 ship list. Decent firepower for 2 ships and heavy defensive capabilities.

Neither ship is an easy kill and neither is a ship you'd want to face endgame.

Thoughts?

100 Points

Chewbacca (58)
Veteran Instincts, Luke Skywalker, C-3PO, Millennium Falcon, Engine Upgrade

Keyan Farlander (42)
Sensor Jammer, Ion Cannon, Push the Limit, B-Wing/E2, Jan Ors

Not sure that I'd ever consider a B-wing very defensive, but I'm probably going to be flying Keyan with Jan as well tomorrow.

I like the concept, but it could do with some trimmings.

Ibtisam is much more defensive of course than Keyan and comes with her own bag of tricks. Sable had an effective loadout for her.

I might personally go with PtL, Lando, Jan and the title for Chewie. Evade -> Lando to reliably end up with two evades per turn. Three if lucky.

Maybe Luke in the X-Wing as a Wingman.

I think Keyan would be vulnerable to initial focus fire. B-wings are too slow to count on being able to disengage to spread the heat between ships. Then you´re left with a very survivable Chewie, but with very limited damage output too. I would personally pick a 42 point YT-2400 of some sort, perhaps simply the generic with the HLC/outrider combo. The YT-2400 is so fast that if you focus on it, you risk it being able to run away while the HCL-turret makes it pretty lethal at long-range.
