Hey all,

I took an ABB list (Tycho,Ten w/ Mangler & Keyan) list to my first tournament and failed miserably, mostly because of my bad flying and inexperience against large ships.

I still like As and Bs, so I decided to bump the list to four ships and this is what I came up with so far:

Blue Squadron Pilot (22)
Flechette Cannon (2)

Blue Squadron Pilot (22)
Ion Cannon (3)

Jake Farrell (24)
Push the Limit (3)
Chardaan Refit (-2)
Veteran Instincts (1)
Autothrusters (2)
A-Wing Test Pilot (0)

Gold Squadron Pilot (18)
Ion Cannon Turret (5)

Total: 100

I want to ion+stress one ship to take it out of the fight asap, and with the 2 ion cannons I have a decent chance of ionizing even large ships, imho and the firepower should do ok against swarms. Jake is there to impress the ladies with his flying skills, blue paintjob and to get to range of 1 turrets or hunt phantoms (that's why I gave him VI). Gold for the 360° ion and to block if necessary.

Any opinions? I'm toying with the idea of upgrading one Blue to Keyan because I like him, but then I'd only have leftover points for a Z or an A and the list will lack a bit in the firepower department.

Id put two FCS on the blues and then an R2 unit on the gold and call it a day
