Push The Limit (3)

Fire Control System (2)

· R2-D2 (4)

YT-1300: · Chewbacca (42)

Predator (3)

The classic Palp and two aces would murder that list.

HLCs are also very effective against Chewie. They don't do crits, but they do inflict lots of damage, so his ability helps not a bit. Brath w/ HLC is even better, since he CAN crit chewie (in theory).

Bossk is another guy Chewie hates to see. Funny how the big bad trandoshan wrecks everyone's favourite wookie...

But generally speaking, this list has no real re-position abilities, so anything that 'out-jousts' it will do well. Swarms for example or any 4 ship rebel list with all 3 attack should also do well...

corran is weak against higher PS ships that can arc dodge. the fact that he has PTL instead of VI actually helps you out

I played against Chewie Corran the other day and wrecked it. I took Boba and Vessery. Things that deal crits (proton bombs, advanced homing missiles) are worth their weight in gold against Corran, and Boba had both. Vessery had Outmaneuver and an ion cannon with the /D title and he murdered poor Chewy.

If it is PtL Corran simple things like stress can ruin his day. Chewie just has one agility, so focus fire is all you need there.
