Poe, Luke, Ethan

By arolig, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Poe Dameron - 38
PTL, BB8, Autothrusters

Luke Skywalker - 30
Lone Wolf

Ethan A'bath - 32



I wanna try this list out when I get a chance. Ethan should go evade action most times.
Scoring fair crits with the new damage deck will be possible with this squad I think.

Poe and Luke are both extremly effective on offense and defence with this build, keeping in mind that Lone Wolf works for offense and defence.

Cool list! Both Poe and Luke can be nightmares for the end game and Etahn boosts everyone's attacks so he's also a big priority target.

I've gotten to try it once now. Really packed a punch :)
The action economy is amazing, And the ships area really agile(green), very un-rebel-ish :D

I like this list a lot. What about r2 astro and lightning reflexes on Luke instead of lone wolf? Seems to me you would want to fly this list as a group to get the most out of etahns ability so LW wouldn't trigger all that much. At least this way Luke can keep up with the rest of the squad?

Sure enough something that could work^^
But Luke is much more defensive with lone wolf, and he works good on offence when close to his pack and away from them.

If I where to swap out Lone Wolf I would rather run one of these pilots:

Garven Dreis (he can pass Ethan a Focus every turn)
Janson w/R2-astro
Wedge w/R2-astro

Garven Dreis would free up 4 points, let's say we use them to give Ethan r2-d2.
Or a Fire Control System, R5-X3(the new droid), and last Adrenaline Rush or Calculation(for even more crits).

Both Wedge and Jansons offensive abilityes let's more crits get through :)
Luke's ability is not that good without Lone Wolf I think.

I have just started running this list with a lot of success. It is extremely durable.

Ethan

-Push the Limit

-Advance Sensors

-R2-D2

Luke

-Lone Wolf

-R5-P9

Tarn

-R7 Astromech

Usually fly Ethan and Tarn together, Luke in the flank. Ethan is a beast in the this build. Give it a try, I think you will enjoy it. The Ewing is by far my favorite ship.
