Carrying on from my A-wing slash thread..

By BCooper85, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I've used the list below for my last 2 games, I've won 1 and lost 1. DtF has not come into play as I've found that once the A's have fire the proton rockets they are too far away from the Red Squadron dude. This has made me think that maybe putting a Blue Squadron B in with advanced sensors would be a better option. Gives me more HP and different options and Biggs still gets to do his job of protecting the A's until they are within R1, although it does slow them down a little.

What do you think?

A-WING SLASH

100 points

PILOTS

Green Squadron Pilot (25) x 2
A-Wing (19), Proton Rockets (3), Push the Limit (3)

Red Squadron Pilot (25)
X-Wing (23), R2-D6 (1), Draw Their Fire (1)

Biggs Darklighter (25)

How about keeping both X-Wings, but using one of the following builds to go with Biggs?

1. Red Squadron + R3-A2. Lets you hand out a stress token to an enemy ship at an opportune time.

2. Tarn + R7. Makes a great late-game ship.

That way you're not slowing your list down with a B, keeps the theme going better.

Good shout, think I'd be better off with Tarn.

use tarn but drop R3-A2 to put on the stress torps on tarn, since tarn gets a free target lock on a ship that attacks him, you can then dump that TL for a torp shot.

alternatively, the list i run sometimes is very similar except i run one B-wing with B-wing/E-2 and jan ors to give biggs that evade token
