Escorted Defender

By Kibbz, in X-Wing Squad Lists

The idea behind this list is to run high-agility with the ability to get in and get out while dishing out some damage.

Rexler Brath — TIE Defender 37

Veteran Instincts 1

Heavy Laser Cannon 7

Carnor Jax — TIE Interceptor 26

Veteran Instincts 1

Hull Upgrade 3

Royal Guard Pilot — TIE Interceptor 22

Hull Upgrade 3

I tested the list by playing my wife's Chewie/leebo list. I was able to take Leebo down extremely quick at the loss of the Royal Guard, but some poor decisions led to another interceptor death and then loss by time. I can say, Rexler Brath is a BOSS when it comes to a falcon pilot screwing around with cspo and r2d2.

Any suggestions?

I'd swap the hull upgrades for push the limit

Against an r2-d2/c3p0 falcon you might have some problems

I'd replace the RGP with Yorr and drop VI on them. Replace VI on Carnor for PTL. Yorr can soak up stress from PTL or when attacking a ship with Rebel Captive.

Rexler Brath — TIE Defender 37

Heavy Laser Cannon 7

Carnor Jax — TIE Interceptor 26

Push The Limit 3

Hull Upgrade 3

Captain Yorr - Lambda-Class Shuttle 24

I can see why you'd want PS 10 on them though - to counter Whisper. My defense rolls are usually crap so I like to have more hull/shield in my builds if possible.

Brath really needs a way to modify his dice rolls so he can hang onto those focus tokens. Probably would drop the hull upgrades for push the limit on the squints and lobe wolf on brath

But if you put lone wolf on brath, the he won't want to be escorted by the squints, and then thus thread needs a new title!
