T-70s

After watching the new movie several times, I thought I'd have a play around and see what I could do with the T-70s. I've already played a fair bit of Poe and this uses him in my favourite loadout, but I also wanted to get Ello in there too.

Ello Asty (30)
Push the Limit (3)
R5-P9 (3)
Autothrusters (2)

Poe Dameron (31)
Veteran Instincts (1)
R2-D2 (4)
Autothrusters (2)

Gold Squadron Pilot (18)
Twin Laser Turret (6)

Total: 100

I wasn't sure what to do with the last 24 points, but a basic TLT Gold fits exactly so why not. I still can't decide what I like best on Ello - VI or PTL. Dropping PTL to VI lets me fit in R3-A2 but gives Ello less punch. Obviously he can't Tallon Roll after he pushes - I'd considered BB-8 but then he has no regen, which I'm rather partial to. Too mnay options, argh. Help! :)

PTL Asty, why? It actually completely contradicts his ability unless you have bb-8

Because it's late here (nearly 2am) and I didn't think it through? lol. That'll teach me to list build at this time of day. Maybe Predator would be the better choice there

Outmaneuver would be interesting as well.

Complete re-think. I really want to find a role for Ello, so why not take two ships that can just end up anywhere. Would be even better if Kanan crew was available to go on Dash.

Ello Asty (39)
T-70 X-Wing (30), BB-8 (2), Flechette Torpedoes (2), Push the Limit (3), Autothrusters (2)

Dash Rendar (58)
YT-2400 Freighter (36), Push the Limit (3), Heavy Laser Cannon (7), Kyle Katarn (3), Outrider (5), Engine Upgrade (4)

This is the current all T-70 list I'm pondering. Poe goes for straight jousting, while Ello and Blue Ace can put themselves in some less predictable positions.

Ello Asty (30)
Veteran Instincts (1)
R2 Astromech (1)
Integrated Astromech (0)
Poe Dameron (31)
Veteran Instincts (1)
R5-P9 (3)
Autothrusters (2)
"Blue Ace" (27)
R7-T1 (3)
Integrated Astromech (0)

What about Ello with Daredevil and Blue Ace:

Ello Asty (30)
Daredevil (3)
R5-P9 (3)
Autothrusters (2)
"Blue Ace" (27)
R2-D6 (1)
Cool Hand (1)
Autothrusters (2)
Prototype Pilot (17)
Chardaan Refit (-2)
Prototype Pilot (17)
Chardaan Refit (-2)
Total: 99
Ello can T-roll and then use daredevil to mimic Blue Ace ability receiving a stress token and when needed Blue Ace can use Cool Hand and do the same by T-rolling, discarding cool hand and the stress token and boosting with a 1 turn.
EDIT: I've said cool hand, i meant adrenaline rush, i confused the two upgrades.

"This is the Ello list youre looking for."

Ello+BB8+IA+VI

Poe+R2D2+At+VI

stressbot Ywing with TLT

comes to 97 points

a buddy of mine has been running this list and is crushing it. his 97 points outbids other Ace lists. ello with BB8 and VI become completely unpredictable and opens up a range of options for you when youmove

Blue Ace makes an interesting arc dodger when combined with BB8. Barrel roll, 3 straight, with a 90 degree hook on the end. It would need Kyle or Dutch to give him dice modification though.
