What if you trade the R2 units and the flechette torpedoes for Bwing E2s with Tacticians?

The Tactician B-wings sound interesting Guess I'll have to buy a second TIE Phantom.

What about r3a2 with one of those Y-wings?

I ran this list at the UK nationals last year without the A4 title to some success, called it Golden Daggers. Though it did suffer against swarms.

I also won the Assault at Imdaar tourney with this list. I haven't flown rebels in a while now so not sure how it would fare against Whisper/Soontir lists especially with autothrusters thrown into the mix.

If you are leaving the title on the Gold Squads, the R2 units are going to be a huge help in keeping targets in arc and being able to deal with stress.

I ran BBYY the other day in a casual game and found that Advanced Sensors really helped my B-Wings keep up with the Y's and able to keep their actions whole. I ran the title, ion turret and R2 on both Y's and the number of red dice you can pull out of this little 4 ship list isn't bad especially considering their resiliency.

Tactcian is very good if you have the points for a crew slot, however the flechette cannon does the same thing and is not restricted to the rng 2 bubble.

just a thought. I like title on the Y's, but I usually just put one on if I'm running 2 Y's, gives a little more arc flex with one of the Ion's. personal flavor I guess ;)

great thread lads!

I've modified it to this:



-Gold Squadron Pilot


BTL-A4


Ion Cannon Turret



-Gold Squadron Pilot


BTL-A4


Ion Cannon Turret



-Blue Squadron Pilot


B-Wing/E2


Tactician



-Blue Squadron Pilot


Fire Control System


Flechette Cannon

Best of both worlds with the two B-Wings.


I might try something similar this weekend if I can borrow a few ships and cards...

i would call the list "by by" :)

Tried the Ys with the Bs armed with ion cannons. I like! Beat a Dash Han force easily. Rest of the matches were close but didn't go in my favour.
