A list to mess with your opponent's head

By 4fox100, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So a while back i psted a list that ran a couple of the Empire's most annoying pilots. Dark Curse, Carnor Jax, and Omega Leader. Somebody replied with a different list that he thought might do better. So i did a little tweaking to my original list by combining my list with his. And this is what i came up with

Carnor Jax

Ptl

Thrusters

Dark Curse

Omega Leader

Juke

Com Relay

Zertik Strom

VI

Title

Sensor Jammer

100pts

I think it has the potential to give your opponent a real headache. The one weakness i see is that if you loose more than one of these ships it will lose alot of its synergy.

Your thoughts? Personally i think it might be a blast to fly.

boba Fett Andraste title.

Soontir Fel in red Interceptor

Darth Vader in blue tint tie adv

Carnor Jax in grey interceptor

these are things i fly to mess with my opponents

but this, this is a good list... lacks some non-gimick survivability, but i like it.

That was the one thing that i realized about this list. With only 12 hull and 3 sheild distributed among them it has very little room for error. The upside is that opponents will have a hard time pushing damage through.

(Carnor Jax in a gray TIE. That's just evil :) )

my friend refuses to fly against me in a friendly setting if i have Andrasta on Boba Fett... so im bringing it to a local tournament to see if it works there too.

I like it. I'm a fan of Jax/Strom/Kagi, so a 4-ship version is nice. Since PS8 isn't good enough to compete with aces like Soontir and Vader anyway, I'd be inclined to try a different EPT on Strom, like Crack Shot.

So i ran the list last night against the following.

Han Solo

PTL

Rec Spec

Jan Ors

EU

Poe

VI

R2-D2

Thrustas

Flechette Torps.

(There may have been more but i cant remember)

It was a close game. I lost Zertik early and had Poe down to one heath at the same time...but he escaped and started regening (grrr artoo). Omega Leader stayed behind Han the whole game and pushed through one damage a turn. I uad a couple lucky dice rolls at the end (3 natural evades...twice!!!) In the end it was Dark Curse that won the day. He managed to get into range one of han (who jad a damaged cockpit) and landed a critical. Direct hit and han went down. My opponent conceded because at that point it was poe with 1 sheild and 1 hull. Against Jax with 1 hull, Omega with 1 hull, and a full health Curse.

As was said before this list lacks alot in survivability but the gimmicks keep it alive. And it is a blast to fly.

i can imagine it being a ton of fun to fly being that 3/4 of your ships activate at 8.

glad to hear you brought down that rebel scum.

did you run Jax in the grey interceptor like i told you to? or Strom in the blue one?

and its not luck when you're balancing the playing field by causing unmodified attacks its all planned goodness.

I decided to play nice and run jax in red. I don't want to loose all of my friends lol

One little change i made was running zertik with Mk2 Engine instead of VI (to defend against any stress control lists)
