So, I already posted something similar a few weeks ago. However, I thought I should update this a bit.

- Adar Tallon

- Expanded hangar

- ECM

- Gallant Haven

- Flight Controllers

Neb B Escort (69)

- Raymus

- Yavaris

Fighters (89)

-Luke (X-wing)

-X-wing

-A-wing

-A-wing

-Farlander (B-Wing)

-B-wing

TOTAL (292 pts)

Objectives: Most wanted, Fleet ambush, Superior positions.

Strategy - Keep fighters close to gallant haven. After choosing your prey, the AF punches a hole in the target's shield with the X17s. Stay a long range. ECM helps with survivability while it does so. Once you see bare hull, fighter commands come out. A-wings run interference, b-wings bomb, x wings helps whichever needs it more. Flight controllers help with anti-fighter duty. Adar is to be used on Farlander (move and 4 blacks in single activation.) Yavaris is more for defense. If they send fighters at your ships, it your squadrons will annihilate them by attacking twice per activation.

After bombers are done, if up on pts, fly back to the AF and run away!

Weaknesses: Must protect the AF at all costs. So many points tied up in it. Fighters should be held back until you see bare hull. Also if you loose the pts bid, things like firing lanes or intel sweep will be tough to beat.

Problem is ... keeping the AF at long range and the fighters around it mean that the bwings are Way WAY out ... and it will take them forever and a day to get into proper range to actually use those lovely dice.

And I imagine many imperials are going to be using a VSD with two Flanking GSD's meaning it will be harder to get the squadrons in ...

It definitely looks like an interesting list don't get me wrong I just wonder at the validity of bwings being so slow.

Yeah, you're right. Replacing the b-wing with y-wings would probably be a better idea. I should have seen that, considering I was just complaining about how slow b-wings are in another thread :P

Revised, bwings replaced with faster 3 y-wings and one xwing upgraded to wedge. Pts go up by 2 . . . 294 total.

Any particular reason to pick Dodonna? I personally dislike him, which is why I'm asking?

First, he's the cheapest option. Second, with all the black dice being flung around, his ability is sure to get some use.
