Whisper, Omega Leader and Carnor Jax

By Okapi, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I recently got a FO-Fighter and a Gozanti in the mail, and I've been trying to think of a squad I could bring to a tournament this Saturday. I've been really looking forward to trying out Kallus in a Phantom, so I figured I'd bring Whisper. I think Omega Leader looks fun too, and with these two: Juke and Sensor Jammer? They definitely have synergi, don't they? So:

Whisper (32)

- Veteran Instincts (1)

- Agent Kallus (2)

- Sensor Jammer (4)

- Advanced Cloaking Device (4)

Omega Leader (21)

- Juke

- Comm Relay

That leaves 31 points. Right now I'm considering Carnor Jax with Autothrusters and Push the Limit, so further sabotage and focus/evade attempts and make Juke and Sensor Jammer even more irritating, but he might be a little...soft. Another option could be a combination of Dark Curse, Backstabber, Night Beast, Chaser and Wampa, or even VI Scourge and an Obsidian. Thoughts?

Hi Okapi, how about 2 crackblack ties, to run an updated version of that classic list, whisper swarm?

Or predator Maarek, as the ps order is good for his chances of forcing through that lovingly-chosen crit? :D

How about a boring old palpmobile, as omega leader hates rolling blanks, and he gives your opponent a bit of a selection quandry?

Good luck at the tournament...

I love Carnor Jax, I vote for him!

The Hateful 8's

Echo - VI, Agent Kallus, Sensor Jammer, ACD

Carnor Jax - PTL, Title, Autothrusters, Targeting Computer

Omega Leader - Juke, Comm Relay

100 points

Alternatively, you could go Juke and Hull upgrade on Carnor instead for a bit more longevity, but Juke tends to make more sense on two attack die ships, not three.

Palpmobile isn't a bad suggestion, really. The two points left could mean a Fire-Control System or an iniative bid. VI Vader is also an option. Hm...
