AC/FO

By numb3rc, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Accuracy Corrector TIE Advanceds and irregular TIE/fo swarms have both been reasonably successful, but has anyone tried combining the two?

I'm fishing for new list ideas and I only own two copies of Comm Relay, so I'm trying to look for a way to combine two of my favorite Imperial ships. None of the ships have a real solid punch like Vader or a Phantom, but they're all pretty hardy in their own way. Does this FO/Advanced combination (or any FO/Advanced Combination) look worth further study?

I think this would end up with a little more punch. FOs are there as blockers. Nobody will want to shoot them because they are annoying as hell to kill but if they don't take them out they'll be bumping left and right. Strom is going to be hanging out waiting for a target of opportunity to drop 5 dice of Crackshot+TL+Focus Proton Rocket (with Guidance Chip if it's out) on top of. Other than that he's going to ATCing things up with Vader. I gave Vader the MkII Engines to help deal with stress but that point could have gone towards an initiative bid.

That's clever! I haven't tried Prockets on Alozen before after getting burned with an ill-advised Procket Colzet tournament list, but his ability actually works with them pretty well. I'll give something like this a try!
