3 Friends List

By chopan, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi! I want to build a list with Soontir, Whisper and Vader. How can I get the most profit out from these 3? Its not for winning a tournament but to have fun and be as competitive as possible.

Thanks!

Those are all very upgrade dependent ships, so you can only afford the bare essentials to make each ship work...

Vader: Title, ATC

Soontir: PTL, Autothrusters

Whisper: VI, ACD

99/100 3 skill 9 pilots is scary

Oh yes, not having the Intelligence Agent or VI on Vader for initiative bidding is also not a bad idea, listen to that guy!

Like it!

Thing is, that the title for the advanced is soooo expensive.

I agree. I didn't even read the thread and Shirako's build is exactly what I came up with. Again, I'm not convinced this will win any tournaments but if you just want to roll three scary ships, that is probably your best build du jour.

That is a problem, yes. I don't have the Raider either and as a result wouln't run Advanceds (not that it bothers me, I just don't like their aesthetic). The thing is, though, that Vader was the only sometimes usefull Advanced befor the fix and if you are in a more casual enviroment you could run him without it for fun. In that case Lone Wolf is a pretty good idea.

Ask your opponents if they are fine with proxying as well, in a casual enviroment you shouldn't hold yourself back because you didn't buy some upgrade cards.

If you want to fly three PS9 pilots with the usual upgrades consider -

  • Soontir Fel + PtL + Title + Stealth Device + Autothrusters
  • Whisper + VI + FCS + Gunner + ACD (though in the current meta maybe Sensor Jammer and Recon Spec)
  • Mauler Mithel + VI + Stealth Device

All PS9. All four or five dice at range one, which is handy for those pesky TLT y-wings!).

Thank you!!

Even though I wanted to fly the "three friends list" this is a very powerful one.

Cheers!

How do you fly this? The three separate covering the field, or together?

Seperate so you are less predictable, but not so scattered that you can't focus fire.
