Where to put my Engine Upgrade..... !? Han & Corran List

By Stamkos, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hello FFG Community! I have been playing around with the following:

Han Solo (46)
Veteran Instincts (1)
Jan Ors (2)
Recon Specialist (3)
Corran Horn (35)
Push the Limit (3)
Fire-Control System (2)
R2-D2 (4)
Engine Upgrade (4)
Total: 100

Currently I have the EU on Corran, but I am wondering what you guys think. I am open to all advice and criticism!!

Who do you think would benefit most in the current meta? I feel like in the store championship I am going to see a lot of Decimator/Whisper and Dash/Corran...

Thank you in advance! Keep Flying Pilots!

EU is arguably one of the strongest upgrade for large ships in the current meta. I would put it on Han without question, it makes him super dodgy. Also, I would consider replacing VI and Jan Ors with Predator as well, to give you a constant soft target lock in addition to Han's ability.

Recon spec without Jan Ors is wasted on a ship with one green die. It will proc one out of eight rolls when defending.

I was thinking about that, perhaps VI Corran and Gunner Han?

I have thinking about that, But I wanted to Keep VI on Han to deal with Whisper. I am going to use EU on Han without a doubt now. Makes perfect sense, especially to arc dodge.

But if I VI on Corran I could also kill whisper with him, I Would just have to make sure he is in my arc. Whereas with Han I wouldn't need to worry about placement.

In the current meta you might even want to consider putting vi and eu on both ships.

just made that list, What do you think?

I don't know that nien is important in that build, then again there isn't anything in particular to replace him with...

My thoughts are similar, though I've seen Rebel Captive and Mara Jade on some of the decimators in the last few tournaments I've gone to so Nien might open up more options for a stressed Han in that situation.

Yea I would be at 99 without Nien, and no reason to go for initiative bid. And most Phantom/Decimator Lists have at least 1 rebel captive from what I have seen. Just makes Han a little more versatile.

That's a very good point!
