B/E/X - an attempt at pseudo-originality

By StarWarsDad1138, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So some background first. This was an attempt to make Accuracy Corrector work with Autoblaster on a b-wing. It evolved eventually into this list (missing Autoblaster interestingly enough).

B-WING: · Nera Dantels (26)

Deadeye (1)

Flechette Torpedoes (2)

Accuracy Corrector (3)

Munitions Failsafe (1)

X-WING: · Biggs Darklighter (25)

E-WING: · Corran Horn (35)

Draw Their Fire (1)

Fire Control System (2)

· R2-D2 (4)

The idea is for Corran to up Biggs' survivability while pouncing on stressed targets, Nera to hand out stress like candy (remember the wording on AC, MAY add 2 [hit]). And Biggs to live long enough to give the rest of the list a fighting chance.

Thoughts/suggestions?

It's just a bonus that Nera and Biggs were an item.

Anyone?

Well, what are your plans? Is this a pal around squad or regionals?

I think 33 points for 1 guaranteed stress seems a bit inefficient (especially since her damage output is abysmal when using the flechettes). You could just take a rookie with R3-A2 to have almost the same effect, but with slightly higher chance of actually dealing some damage. And that saves you 10 points.

I also don't like the idea of using Corran in that role. I think Luke with DtF + R2-D2 is better, and that saves you 7 more points. 17 points lets you add another ship, although I'm not sure doing so makes the list substantially stronger...

The intent is for Nera to stress the arc-dodger without caring about arc OR range, then all the ships turn to chase. Rinse and repeat. It was just some late-night theory crafting. I agree that Corran may not be the best fit here, but what else?
