Double YT in current Meta

By Alphastealer, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi all,

I am wondering if the following list would be have decent in the current meta of TLT, Aces, Swarms.

1x YT1300 - Chewie - Title - PTL - Engine - Nien - Intel Agent - 52

1x YT2400 - Leebo - Title - PTL - Engine - Mangler - Kyle - 48

Both are skill 5 so activation order is never an issue.

Both dish out 3 shots 360 degrees at range 1-3

Both have damage mitigation built in.

Both can get out of a tight spot if needed.

Combined life of 23.

Swarms could be an issue. They do not fear TLT spam and aces should be a fair fight.

It looks like it would be pretty fun, but I think you're a bit short on firepower. Two 3 dice attacks will struggle to take down high-health attackers, and high Agility targets with Autothrusters are likewise going to be an issue.

From personal experience running this list, all of the above is correct. Pushing the limit to get off a target lock and focused shot gives you a little bit of offensive punch, but makes your next turn predictable, and if you get blocked or can't take actions it reduces your offense a lot.

Try this:

1x YT1300 - Chewie - Title - Predator - 46

1x YT2400 - Dash - Title - Predator - HLC - C3PO - 54

Basically predator is a guarantee that you will land your shots in, and guessing 1 with C3PO is likely to get you two evades per turn on one of the shots, making Dash a not so obvious first target. The strategy is to put chewie in between dash so as to mitigate the donut hole. I think you might be better off with this squad if you want double turrets.
