an escalation list

By player358431, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hello all.

I am tinkering with the final details of an escalation list (60/90/120/150)

Following rules are in effect.

everything carries over and stays on the same ship. I can go below the points minimum to "save points" for next round. Say if I submit 50 pts list for 60 I can add 40 for 90.

This is the list I have thought about

60

Chiraneu (decimator) + expose + weapons engineer + ysanne Isard + Experimental interface # a very solid gun boat - I have a feel that many people will try to establish their "capital ship" so I expect 1-3 ships mostly and I think turrent mounted 4 6 attack is going to do good here

90

adding two obsidian squad tie figther - Leaving me 4 pts below mark and almost ensuring me initiative. I am running Obs. squadron as I feel that the added pilot skill will be an advantage if I run into another swarm -

120

adding Howlrunner with swarm tactics and another obsidian squad - basically I have a huge gunboat and a "slightly smaller, but slightly better tie swarm)

150 -adding another two obsidians for a total of 145 - I have 5 pts left (nb if I downgrade to academy pilots I would have 10 pts by now - not enough for an additional figther - but I could then spend more on upgrades. What to do.

Now to my question.

The final five pts - what should they be used on?
I am considering a stealth device for Howlrunner -and possibly a moff jerrod on the decimator-

But do you guys have better ideas?
