Just wondering what everyone's thought on this list as a antiTLT list. Should I keep BB8 on Luke or Red Ace? I feel this list could handle a lot. I ran a variant of this list last week and went 3-0. The hardest match up would be a Fel/Vader list but with all the TLT in my meta I don't think I will see them a lot. Also brobots could be a problem. All thoughts are welcome as always! Thanks!

Looks solid, I like it. How has red ace been?

He's a beast of a tank. It really gives people a hard decision on to shoot him or not. I haven't had him go down in a game yet but from what I can see is really big hits are his bane.

As far as anti-tlt goes, it's hard to get better than authotrusters. I'm going to be running this list at my next gamenight with the same idea in mind as yours:

Your PS is still high enough on all ships to outshoot the traditional TLT carrier and you can fit VI in on Poe to give you an edge versus most traditional imperial aces.

I like the list but I'm not too fond of Tarn. He fits the theme as far as X wings go but I feel that if you aren't going to run a T-65 with a high pilot skill I would just run this

It breaks the all X wing theme but I feel you would get more out of this being as Tarn could be shot down without the defense .

Disregard I just saw that you have R7 on Tarn which could extent his life .

I'd swap Luke to a blue squadron t-70 and throw autothrusters on everyone. I just think that auto thrusters are too good to leave out if you are focusing on beating tlt

Just wish TLTs weren't a thing. They are beatable but lists must me made to counter or you just jump in the hype. I find them boring. Only TLT I would run is a stress hog but I still find the y wing a boring ship to fly.

While you can buy comm relay for a t-70 you cant use it. T-70's dont have the evade action.

Red Ace gets an Evade token every time it loses a shield, so Comm Relay works with that.

Red Ace is the ultimate in tough for TLTs to take down. It takes until the third hit of basically every round to face it tokenless, and between 3 agility, autothrusters, and up to two evade tokens spent per turn, plus one shield regenned per turn, TLTs will struggle to get through the defence consistently and get enough damage down to take it out.

Red Ace is a really solid ship - you pay a lot for it, and you don't get an EPT (which sucks, but I think would be a bit OP, especially given that Juke exists) but it's very hard to take down without big spike damage and/or a lot of focus fire.
