Tournament squad list

By Monkeytail2001, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So this is a build that I created for a tournament that was played today. Came 2nd with it which isn't too shabby but I figured I'd post it here for you guys to pick it over. See what you'd do with it to either make it better or how you'd play it. The guy that beat me wiped the floor with everyone so I dinna feel too bad about 2nd place, especially as I didn't know I was going to be using the build until I walked in the door and started writing down the list I'd play.

Roark Garnet - 30pts

  • Twin Laser Turret
  • Jan Ors
  • Moldy Crow

Blue Squadron Pilot - 22pts

  • Fire Control System
  • B-Wing/E2
  • Recon Specialist

Tycho Celchu - 26pts

  • Wired
  • Chardaan Refit
  • A-wing Test Pilot
  • Outmaneuver

Tala Squadron Pilot - 13pts

Total 99pts

The biggest problem I see with this list is the fact that between Tycho & the Tala, you are paying 41 points for 4 attack dice. Because of that, your list is lacking in punchiness, despite Tycho having outmanoeuvre (and there is also the fact that to activate wired, Tycho needs to either k-turn or fly over a debris, and then half the dial is green, so you either avoid half of your dial to keep the stress or if you need to do one of the many green moves on the a-wing dial, you lose the benefit of wired until you can either k-turn or find another debris----this seems quite limiting just to enable a 1 pt card with a somewhat circumstantial ability...)

I think this would get you a bit better firepower and durability:

Roark w/ TLT, moldy crow & jan ors = 30

2 blue squad b-wings = 22 x 2

Green squadron a-wing w/ test pilot, push the limit, outmanoeuvre, chardaan refit & autothrusters = 25

99
