Bossk & his Boys

By stownfox, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I have yet to play this list and will this Thursday!

However, in my testing (rolling a lot of dice), I have been very impressed with calculation. It seems that with a focus and calculation you almost guarantee 2-4 hits per turn. Thoughts?

I am trying to be stingy and leave the engine upgrade at home. With outlaw tech even my hard 2 (red) provides Bossk a focus. With 180 degree arc my thought is if I am smart I can usually keep ships in arc.

I am in love with the Marauder and am excited to field more than 1! They seem like hard hitting yet fragile work horses. This list is designed after a list I saw online - 3 cartel marauders and 2 Sycks w/ manglers. I have replaced the Sycks with Bossk!

What are your thought?

What experiences have you had with Bossk?

PD: sorry for my english, I write with google translator ^^

last week I won a tournament with this list:

Bossk (48)

Veteran instincts

Greedo

K4 Security Droid

Outlaw Tech

Hound's Tooth

Talonbane Cobra (31)

Swarm Tactics

Inertial Dampaners

Cartel Marauder (21)

Inertial Dampaners

7W/0L The idea is the combo with bossk and greedo or the combo with kihraxz fighters. We have 3 pilots with hability 9, normally we destroy a enemy ship on first combat fase. If they focus kihraxz, bossk have more damage with greedo and if they focus Bossk, the kihraxz destroy his ships really fast.
My best victims on first combat face: Corran with 2 kihraxz. Wishper with Bossk at range 3 (hit, hit, critic[hit,hit] the first damage card is critic) they save only a one hit but the critic was 2 damage. Dash rendar with my 3 ships (kihraxz destroy his shields and critic, bossk destroy the rest of the ship. And finish the best, Vader at range 1 to Cobra because they have the inciciative and i'm use the Inertial Dampaners 5 hits!!! :D

Interesting take. I like the idea of 3 PS pilots! I will give it a go and report back :)
