300 pts Rebel Twin Carrier List

By Pikciwok, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

293 points

Precision Strike - Hyperspace Assault - Superior Positions

Assault Frigate Mark II B (121)

- General Dodonna

- Veteran Captain

- Flight Controllers

- Expanded Hangar Bay

- Electronic Countermeasures

- Gallant Haven

2 • Nebulon-B Escort Frigate (74)

- Raymus Antilles

- Engineering Team

- Yavaris

3 x B-wing Squadron (42)
2 x X-wing Squadron (26)
3 x Y-wing Squadron (30)

8 Bombers. You can't take more of them unless you go Y-wing-heavy. Mixed squadron of X-wings and Y-wings follows Gallant Haven. B-wings fly with Yavaris. Precision Strike and Superior Positions are no-brainers. In case of Hyperspace Assault Yavaris and B-wings join the fight later. I'll try to avoid air superiority battles but if the one is inevitable I'll try to tie enemy's crafts with my X- and Y-wings to buy some time for double-striking B-Wings. With Gallant Haven and Flight Controllers an air superiority battle should be long and bloody for opponent. If the enemy doesn't have dedicated space superiority starfighter wing - well, he'll be swarmed to death.

Suggestions?

would cut the Ys for 2 more Xs

you lose out on the anti-ship dice, but I feel like you'd want the anti-squadron insurance. If the enemy wins the squadron exchange, the list is going to be up the space creek.

the four points left over could be allocated to a character X-wing with a few points cut from the initiative bid

Besides Dutch I dont like the Ys. If you want bombers I think that Bs are the way to go..... i know they are slow but should be able to make use of them in rounds 3, 4, and 5.... but need to play a few and find out

jesus, that keyan + B-wing triad looks absolutely terrifying

I got to use that last night. One round of firing with them from a Yavaris activation blew up a fully kitted out Demolisher. I don't think my usual opponent will fall for that trap again...
