First Tourney Help

By Ranzic, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I'm going to be entering my first tournament soon and I am needing help finishing off my list. I'm running Rebels and am looking for an answer to spend the last 31 points or so for my squad. My list at the moment is:

Wedge

R2-D2

33 pts

Poe

R5-P9

Autothrusters

36 pts

My aim is to have Wedge and Poe regenerating shields while they terrorize whatever I'm flying against. I've tried to play with Biggs but I find him to be to squishy and he gets taken out quite quickly. I have most of the Rebel ships besides the YT-1300 so my options are very open. Thank you for any advice in advance.

If you have the T-70 expansion, I would suggest at least IA on Wedge to keep him around longer, especially if you aren't taking Biggs along with you.

If you don't mind running a Y as support, Dutch with R2 Astromech and TLT (30 points) makes a great addition to your early firepower via handing out TLs and providing that consistent TLT damage. That gives you enough room for a one point EPT on Poe or Wedge to round the list out. This leaves your other Ace w/o an EPT though, so maybe a HWK-290...Roark with TLT, Nien Nunb and Moldy Crow title (29 points). 2 points left to fill in EPTs on your aces.

Once you decide what EPTs you want on your aces, it will determine how many points you have left to dabble in the rest of your list.

I've changed my list up a little and would like some more help with it. I test against Dash and Corran and have found that I kill myself very quickly with that list.

Wedge

Predator

R2-D2

Poe

VI

R5-P9

Autothrusters

This leaves 27 points and I still can't find something that molds well with these two. Any ideas would be really helpful.
