Tournament today

By chopan, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi everyone! I have my first tournament today and I'm bringing the following list. So the question is, what strategy should I follow to fly this list? I'm thinking stay mid-range with Soontir to take advantage of Autothrusters and tank with the Decimator. Any input on this?

100 points

PILOTS

Soontir Fel (35)
TIE Interceptor (27), Royal Guard TIE (0), Push the Limit (3), Autothrusters (2), Stealth Device (3)

Rear Admiral Chiraneau (65)
VT-49 Decimator (46), Expose (4), Rebel Captive (3), Ysanne Isard (4), Gunner (5), Experimental Interface (3)

Thank you!!

I'd drop expose or gunner off the Decimator; if you use expose, it's unlikely you'll miss. Plus, their are better elite talents for the Decimator in my opinion, ones that don't require an action (plus, it seems that when you do the math, a focus has better odds than an extra die).

He was asking for a strategy, not a list change.

With your setup on Cherios, use him to take out any arc Dodgers and high agility targets first. Keep soontiir alive to finish up. without engine upgrade on the Deci you want as many bumps as you can if outnumbered to keep him alive if you can't out run your opponent. Basically use Cherios to take out any threat of soontiir before he goes. When Isard is able to trigger, you can't stress or you won't get your evade action.

Thank you, so basically go get 'em with the Decimator and Soontir support from the back.

Fel is a monster all by himself. He should circle the outside of the board looking for easy prey and run away if things aren't in his favor. Chiraneau is the easier target, so use him to lead your enemy around, and get Fel behind them.

This.

Act like you're going to joust, then turn and boost away and try to get them to chase you.

Drop expose and use predator. With a re roll and his ability having a focus is almost not needed.
