So as it states in the title I'm going to my first tournament in a weeks time. I've come up with 4 lists but have got to the point where my inexperience has me double questioning every upgrade choice. I just can't decide on one so any C&C/advice would be great, I just hope I'm on the right lines with one of these lists!
List 1: Rebel Squad
PS 8 - •Ten Numb (38pts) ["Mangler" Cannon (4pts), Fire-Control System (2pts), Veteran Instincts (1pts)]
PS 5 - •Biggs Darklighter (25pts)
PS 2 - Gold Squadron Pilot (25pts) [bTL-A4 Y-Wing, Ion Cannon Turret (5pts), •R3-A2 (2pts)]
PS 2 - Bandit Squadron Pilot (12pts)
My intention would be to fly this as a squad but if it splits would keep Numb and Biggs together and use the Y and Z for Control/Blocking respectively
List 2: Bounty for hire
PS 6 - •IG-88B (50pts) ["Mangler" Cannon (4pts), Autothrusters (2pts), Inertial Dampeners (1pts), Predator (3pts), Sensor Jammer (4pts)]
PS 8 - •Boba Fett (50pts) [Engine Upgrade (4pts), Gunner (5pts), Inertial Dampeners (1pts), Veteran Instincts (1pts)]
This list would be largely a hit and run list with Boba getting in close to utilise his ability whilst IG88B performs attack runs turning h a hit to crit with mangler and rolling hits to focus with sensor jammer.
List 3: Scarlet and friends
PS 2 - Syndicate Thug (24pts) [bTL-A4 Y-Wing, Ion Cannon Turret (5pts), Unhinged Astromech (1pts)]
PS 2 - Syndicate Thug (24pts) [bTL-A4 Y-Wing, Ion Cannon Turret (5pts), Unhinged Astromech (1pts)]
PS 7 - •Kath Scarlet (52pts) [Determination (1pts), Engine Upgrade (4pts), Heavy Laser Cannon (7pts), Inertial Dampeners (1pts), •Greedo (1pts)]
Using the Ys to set up targets I can the unleash 4+ red dice from Kath flipping the first damage over to crit using Greedo and at the same time countering him with determination.
List 4: Brobots
PS 6 - •IG-88B (48pts) ["Hot Shot" Blaster (3pts), "Mangler" Cannon (4pts), Autothrusters (2pts), Fire-Control System (2pts), IG-2000, Veteran Instincts (1pts)]
PS 6 - •IG-88D (52pts) [Advanced Sensors (3pts), Autothrusters (2pts), Heavy Laser Cannon (7pts), IG-2000, Inertial Dampeners (1pts), Predator (3pts)]
Standard brobot build use b to buzzsaw with the mangler, hotshot blaster to deter tails, then use d's ability to setup sniping positions with the HLC.
