Corran Horn + Expose + Fire Control System + Ion Torpedoes - 46p

Biggs Darklighter + R2-D2 - 29p

Airen Cracken + Assault Missiles + Munitions Failsafe - 25p

Contra:

You have to stay in formation. Strong alpha strikes on Biggs too early in the game will destroy the whole synergy.

Pro:

Corran is a BEAST. Biggs helps to negate the disadvantage of Expose. Airen gives Corran a second action either Expose or target lock.The Assault Missiles and the high pilot skill enable even Airen to do a bit of damage and probably zone mass lists. The Ion Torpedoes also help to prevent enemy grouping. Corran can get target lock in 3 different ways: His own actions, Airen or Fire-Control System. So its well possible that Corran gets two attacks on range 1 with 5 dice and target lock. The maneauvers of the 3 ships are pretty similar so its possible to stick together.

Interesting idea. But you have 11 points dedicated to AoE ordnance, in an environment where 2 ships rule. I think you'd be better off dropping those 11 points. And then there are a few different things you could do.

First, I would consider adding Experimental interface to trigger Expose. Now Corran is 100% self sustaining. He can focus, EI expose, and FCS TL, maximizing damage on his own. This leaves you with 8 points, which could be used to upgrade Airen into a 3 attack fighter, especially now that you don't need his free action. 27 points can get you Hobbie w/ R3-A2, a Dagger w/ FCS, or a Gold w/ ICT + R3A2 (optional title) with 2 points left over (Flechettes?). The advantage of Hobbie is that he's PS5 and adds a control element to your list. PS5 is important since he can move very easily with Biggs. But the advantage to the Dagger is that he hits harder. And the advantage to the gold is he's the best control piece in the game, I'd recommend him with the title. Obviously the default mode would be for Biggs to be protecting Corran, but against some opponents, you'll want Corran on the flank anyways.

Note: This is all based around the idea that you want Biggs protecting an Exposed Corran, so I didn't change the premise of the list.

Thanks for the input. The list was made before the "2 only meta" :-D

When i created the list i took the AoE because i considered a swarm a natural enemy of the list as they can take down Biggs easily with focussed fire and Corrans powerful double-shot would be more of a waste on a single TIE-Fighter.

In seriousness. Yes i see value in your suggestions and good variations of the list.

If you don't mind i would also like to hear feedback on my Ruthlessness Squad that you can find here:
