I had a great time running this list against a brobot list.

Stress Bot on the Ble Novice and the Flachette Torpedo put Brobots into a stress overload. They never really got to do actions and Poe's BB-8 PTL shenanigans made him an amazing arc dodger. Red Ace was a tank. I wound up tabling my opponent 100-0.

I'll be running it again.

Any comments / criticisims are appreciated.

Poe Red Ace Blue Novice (100)

Poe Dameron (36) - T-70 X-wing

Push The Limit (3), BB-8 (2), Integrated Astromech (0)

"Red Ace" (38) - T-70 X-Wing

Flechette Torpedoes (2), R2-D2 (4), Comm Relay (3), Integrated Astromech (0)

Blue Squadron Novice (26) - T-70 X-Wing

R3-A2 (2)

Very interesting list for me at least:)

Have you considered dropping the flechette torpedos and swapping "Hobbie" Klivian with the stressbot in place of the blue squadron novice.

This might be a better play for the aggressive (X-wing rather than Y) stressbot play. Hobbie can target lock, stressbot, and then spend the TL to de-stress. Since X-wings are less hp rich and more maneverable than y-wings, keeping stress off is important. The blue squadron stresshog is likely to either A) only be able to stress every other round or B) get chewed up quick. Hobbie dodges this issue (and adds some serious offensive chops to boot)!

This also brings the list down to 99 points, giving you an initiative bid which would be quite valuable on a 3 ace build. And all this for the cheap cost of 1 shield and a 1-time use stress missile that may never see the light of day if you're up against something fat

How so? After the first exchange and VI Poe gets stressed, won't he lose that advantage?

That's the thing, I was expecting Blue Novice to get whacked but he was a pretty decent blocker especially when I could anticipate that my opponent would be making green moves trying to shed stress.

Its also shooting order. And once he does a green maneuver his stress is gone allowing him to take his action.

Not if he gets double stressed by the Stressbot and Flachette torpedo.

But I see your point. A pair of aces might give this list a big headache. Poe BB-8 PTL. shenanigans was loads of fun though!

Red Ace was neat but I think she could be switched out for VI Ello or something else. I'd like to find room for more Flachette torpedos.
