Got some Scum for X-Mas, Need help w/List

By rhoxie, in X-Wing Squad Lists

OK, my son gave me an IG-2000 and 2x Kihraxz Fighters (Most Wanted is sold out). Is there a good way to turn these into a decent list? It doesn't have to be for competitive play because I don't do tournaments. I really want to fool around with IG-2000D, if that helps.

Thanks

IG88D w/ predator, advanced sensors = 42

2 blacksun aces w/ crack shot & glitterstim = 26 x 2

94

That leaves you 6 points to tailor your IG88. Autothrusters is ideal, plus any dial-reveal bomb (he doesn't want to 'waste' his action on a mine). IG88D doesn't really need a cannon, unless you have Heavy Laser Cannon, but then you would have to change up the list to fit it in...

IG is a great ship even with nothing on it. Its versatility is amazing. As mentioned above things like auto thrusters are great. Sensor Jammers can be great as well. I played him with a heavy laser cannon last week and it was mean though I definitely needed something like lone wolf or predator as I whiffed a lot of rolls. Still heavy laser cannon means he gets 4 red dice at every range.

Talonbane is fantastic with things like predator or lone wolf and engine upgrade to get him in someone's face and then melt that face off. Alternately, swarm tactics can be a great choice if you pair him with a lower skilled pilot. Really takes advantage of his 9 skill (he's currently the only scum with 9 ps).

The kihraxz's are good all around fighters and IG is great.

I haven't tried IG-D yet though I'm tempted. Mostly I've been going with IG-C.
