Talonbane and the trash compactors

By dotswarlock, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Here's a list that I tried recently with some interesting success:

Trandoshan Slaver (32) YV-666 (29), Tactician (2), Tactical Jammer (1)

Trandoshan Slaver (33) YV-666 (29), Tactician (2), Ion Projector (2)

Talonbane Cobra (35) Kihraxz (28), Veteran Instincts (1), Glitterstim (2), Engine Upgrade (4)

Talonbane hangs behind the tactical jammer early and waits for the right opportunity to jump at range 1. Meanwhile, the trandoshan slavers act as blockers, damage dealers and stress givers.

The fun thing is that most arc dodgers can dodge one slaver, but usually not both. Add some stress vulnerability and this list can be interesting to fly :)

Interesting use of ships I typically don't like. I like the synergy here. Ion projector seems odd at first glance but you will get some big results out of it IMO. I wonder how well TLTs will hold up VS this.
