By herbaljoker, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I am going to be playing an epic game of 400 points this weekend, and was wondering what you guys think of this list and if there are any changes I need to make. The only imperial ships I don't have are the Lambda and the TIE bomber.

Personally I would turn the lone defender into a few more TIEs, and unless you plan on giving the black squad EPTs I would downgrade to obsidians as the PS 3-4 difference is negligible in Epic IMO.

Black is the way you should run ties in epic. Being the same shooting pilot skill as a huge ship or other generics like daggers or talas is very important.
