Attack Shuttle Undercosted?

By flipperoverlord, in X-Wing

Don't recal if this has been mentioned yet, but Zeb with Chewbacca crew is the most cost-effective 22 point jouster for Rebels.

Compare with a Rookie with a 1 point astro and Integrated.

Time to build BBBZZeb.

I recently felt how amazing Kanan is on a PTL Falcon, allowing the Falcon to destress on its amazing mostly white dial. So, if I put Han next to the PTL, TLT Ezra and let Kanan help his buddy when he gets boxed in, could be a nice combo I'll have to try.

Depending on where you're from that would be BBBZedZeb

I'm going to try Ezra attack shuttle with hera and wired, disembark with a red late game when the ghost is in trouble and scoot around being a major nuisance.
The build allows you to use your entire dial for greater mobility, a pseudo focus on EVERY shoot against you a a smidge of attack dice reroll to counter my horrendous rolling.

Should be fun and straight forward to fly.

Put Kanan on Miranda; she'll have a lot more staying power than Ezra if you want to keep Han going. Or alternatively you could toss him on the Falcon.

Biggest question of the attack shuttle is will you be docking it to improve the ghost or having it fly separately from the start. Keep in mind that if you take the title you are paying for a ship that in the early game would not take a part in the action.

I think many Attack Shuttles will start without the title when the Ghost is released than with the title.

Why limit yourself to one or the other? My ghost list flies ezra docked and sabine free to do her shenanigans alongside :)

Well then you're buying two $50 MSRP ships for the privilege of flying just the two shuttles. That's a pretty big investment just to get another dinky ship. You get a lot more from buying the Raider/Goze vs. a second Ghost.

I have another list that uses 2 ghosts and 1 phantom, but am waiting to see how much the generic ghost costs before I try it (I know it'll fit, since with 2 choppers its at 102 points, and the generic will be at *least* 1 point cheaper than chopper, but if it's more than 1 point cheaper, leaves room for another upgrade or two).

Edit: Also, I already have the Raider, and while i want a gozanti eventually, I don't fly TIE Fighters a ton, so it's less useful for me.
