First post on this forum and just wanted to drop a suggested list that I have used a few times to great success. Was wondering if anyone else uses something similar/any minor tweaks you may suggest to fine tune it. Here goes...

Contra Squadron:

Eaden Vrill

-Anti-Pursuit Lasers

Nera Dantels

-Deadeye
-Flechette Torps x2
-Munitions Failsafe

Wes Jansen

-Vet Instincts

-Flechette Torps

-R3 A2


The main idea is that they prioritize targets with high PS/damage output, prone to self-stress, etc.:

1)Wes target locks, shoots torps first auto stressing with R3 and stripping any leftover tokens, 2) Nera serves as a backup to double down and further stress initial target or picks out another with her 360 torp arc, and 3) Eaden rolls in gaining +1 to his primary turret. Eaden just lurks after the initial stressed target until it is destroyed and serves as a blocker by barrel rolling and using his AP lasers. Wes is usually targeted first although Eaden will always benefit from either Wes' or Nera's stress-inducing attacks as he is PS3. Ideally, by targeting a single enemy ship together they can pump out 9-10 attacks a turn, with three chances to apply stress to a single enemy. With no red maneuvers/koigran turns to rely on, most ships just limp forward or away, get closed in to range 1 at best, and are dealt another salvo of up to 12 shots at Range 1.

So what do you think? I tend to only play against imperials so not sure how this list would fare against rebels. Thanks for reading and please let me know if you have used any other successful stress-inducing lists.
