I found my self watching RoJ (selected bits) and an idea to create a 'Heroes' list that could actually be viable and fun to play sprang to mind. After a bit of pondering and tweaking, I can up with this:

Heroes of the Rebellion.

Tycho Celchu A-wing Squadron (16)

At first glance, it doesn't look like much, but there is a lot of synergy in the list and not inconsiderable firepower. The CR-90 is extremely good at passing actions to other ships, for instance letting the Frigate or MC80 change a dial to Engineering and gaining an Engineering token in the same CR activation, making a significant repair possible out of nothing or getting off a token enhanced squadron command.

Activated correctly, the squadrons have lots of options and are able to support each other and all of them (with perhaps the exception of Wedge) are dangerous to ships as well as squadrons.

if you have the point for ECM, take ECM

with Home Ones and ISD-2s seemingly being popular, you're going to want that brace

I am looking to see where I can root out a point for that. Boosted Comms on the Frigate may have to be sacrificed.

The other option is to drop the Home One title, get the ECM's instead of Projectors and give the Frigate Xi-7's

Tycho Celchu A-wing Squadron (16)

I like the feel of the theme here. Could it be competitive and could you build this fleet with just buying one of the ships available instead of multiples?

For the first list, you would only have One Boosted Comms from a single Home One pack.

For the First/Second List: The presence of XI-7 Turbolasers means that you would need 1x/2x Nebulon-B Frigate packs, as that is the only place that card is found.

Wouldn't drop home one

That title is literally THE reason to use the less efficient MC80 w/Akbar over another frigate

I'd far sooner drop comms on the frigate

I am going to try both versions. :-)

Drop Tantive IV to Jaina's Light? Not as effective for what you were trying to do, but still not a bad little support ship and its that one point.

I actually think I'm OK with dropping Home One. It really only helps one ship. I can live without it for the balance of the rest of the list.

But does that one ship have a lot for Gunnery Teams? If the answer is yes, then it's still worth it
