Just got merc'd. Need a little help.

By Rodzilla, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So i just played a squad that I underestimated.

Darkcurse

Nightbeast

Carnor

Scimitar pilot

...

Carnor had PTL, Autothrusters, Targeting Computer, and something else. Scimitar had some missiles and a Prox Mine, the two ties had Hull upgrade and something else...

Thing is, most of my ships needed to spend target locks (rerolls) and focus... but Carnor and Dark Curse made sure I didnt get to do that very often.

How do I combat this next time!?

Blue Squadron x2, Lt. Blount w/ Assault Missiles, Keyan kitted out however you like.

Sweet man! Thanks for the input! im building it now. by the way he was talking, hes going to use that build again.. i was also thinking Deci and vader/ruthlessness build..

Either Etahn A'baht or Vader (crew) will wreck that list.

I can say the Tie Fighters and Tie Bomber will hate crits. Mangler cannons are good, as well as Calculation. I can see Ten Numb with Mangler being just mean.

Besides that, you have two options to really beat it. Either go with lots of dice (HLC) or go with rolling dice a lot. I wouldn't recommend 2 shot swarms, but a good number of B-wings or X-wings can do it.

Stress is probably a good thing to dish out.
