Mixing Factions, what's your dream squad?

By gamblertuba, in X-Wing

Not sure if this has been discussed to death before but... What would be your favorite squad if you could mix factions at will? Any crazy game-breaking combos? Anyone more creative than Biggs with a Howlrunner swarm?

phantom + falcon is my nightmare if that counts

I dream of a Dash with a Dash Crew so I can just fly terribly.

Anyone more creative than Biggs with a Howlrunner swarm?

How about Biggs with a Howlrunner/Serrisu swarm? :P

I really thought there would be some really game-breaking combos but have not come up with too many yet. Phant-Han would be annoying as Hades but I can't find a real synergy that would throw off balance completely. Anyone tried free-for-all faction agnostic games before?

Kenkirk with C3PO, Rebel Captive, and Ysanne Isard

Maybe add Biggs into that

Phantoms with Jan Ors

Jonus with 4 Bandits with cluster missiles and still 14 points to spare

Dutch with Interceptors

Eaden Vrill with anything that has rebel captive or mara jade

RAC VI Isard Mara Engine

2 hwk's with ion turrets

Fat Han with whisper

Ethan + Howl + z95/tie swarm

I really thought there would be some really game-breaking combos but have not come up with too many yet. Phant-Han would be annoying as Hades but I can't find a real synergy that would throw off balance completely. Anyone tried free-for-all faction agnostic games before?

3x Sigma Phantom, Biggs.

Phantom and Falcon isn't super different from Phantom Deci IMO.

Add a bodyguard into that to boost Biggs defense even more!

Take all three and add in Etahn and... wait we just ran out of points. Oh well, we still have 6 points left to spend on upgrades (Definitely not lone wolf).

Biggs, kagi, and carnor?

big difference is that Han is a far bigger pain in the ass than Chiraneau

X-Wings or B-Wings and Interceptors :D

Phantom with Roark and/or Torkil.

3 royal guard interceptors with an outrider

Dutch+Jonus leading a Tie Bomber squad.

Han Solo + C3P0 + Ysanne + MF -> 3 guaranteed evades per turn.

Dash + HLC + Outrider + Mara Jade -> In my donut hole? Have a stress token!

Both together is 105 points, so at least you can't fly them together :P

Altough, if you sub in a WSF for Dash it's 99 pts!

Cant both ysanne and mf, both are the evade action, not assign tokens

Doh!

Howl + HU

Biggs

Alpha Sqd. X 3

By the time you have killed Biggs and Howl, the Alphas would have torn you apart.

A squad with all heavy (fighter)bomber / heavy ordinance carrying ships together.

1 Bomber with Jonus, together with Hired Gun BTL-A4 Y-wing with Bomb loadout, and a Dagger Squadron B-wing, maybe with crew. Something along the lines of these.

The local store periodically runs a tournament - 2 ship minimum from different factions. 59 points max, and all faction restrictions are removed. 12 asteroids. It keeps things kind of in check but is still TONS of fun. I believe one of the more successful squads was soontir and wedge. Biggs walks the ties didn't do so hot. And han as crew on boba fetts ship was just plain hilarious. "shaddup back there!"

At 100 points I think things get silly... But its just fun at lower point levels. Cant wait fr the next one which will have scum!

ACD Whisper VI with Greedo crew.

ACD Echo with Dash crew.

Biggs

something involving wedge soontir and guri

I'd have Kavil with an engine upgrade, unhinged astro, VI and ion turret.

Echo with advanced sensors, VI, ACD, and Navigator

and Coran with R2D2, FCS, Lone Wolf. and engine upgrade - or maybe Wedge with a similar loadout - or maybe Tycho

way over 100 pts but seeing as we're breaking the rules anyway......
