Scum list idea

By Outcast, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hey guys have an idea for a scum list that could be some fun ?

Y-wing - Kavil, Blaster Turret, R4 Agromech, VI, Bomb Loadout, Proton Bombs 36pts

HWK-290 - Palob Godilhi, Blaster Turret, Opportunist, Outlaw Tech, Stealth Device, Moldy Crow 36pts

Z-95 - Binayre Pirate, Feedback Array 14pts

Z-95 - Binayre Pirate, Feedback Array 14pts

Total: 100pts

Thoughts ?

I like the Palob / Opportunist synergy but I'm seeing only 7 agility and 21 hit points across your fleet (with two of those ships designed to self-damage). You added Stealth Device and Outlaw Tech to try to bolster the HWK's defenses but in my opinion Stealth Device is a questionable choice even on a 3 agility ship. An enemy with target lock and/or rerolls and a high dice attack is going to knock that Stealth Device off very quickly. I don't think the upgrades you have on Palob are getting you enough value and a fleet this fragile needs to pack more punch. Palob needs to be setting up for a more powerful ship to use opportunist. How about:

Kath Scarlet + Opportunist + K4 Security Droid + Tactical Jammer (46)

Palob Godalhi + Blaster Turret + Outlaw Tech (26)

Binayre Pirate + Feedback Array (14) x2

Total: 100

Kath rolls five target locked dice out of his rear arc and has Tactical Jammer to cut down on the lines of fire to Palob. The Zs buzz around providing support and zapping any expensive Ties your enemy brings to the table. I think these changes give you more firepower and a little more defense.
