Corran with Dash with Mangler - 3 extra points?

By Wibs, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hello,

I have had troubles flying Dash with HLC (7pt) so I changed it to Mangler (4pt) and had a lot more success. Chaning this gives me 3 extra points.

  • Corran Horn E-Wing
  • R2-D2
  • Fire-Control System
  • Veteran Instincts

  • Dash Rendar YT-2400 Freighter
  • Push the Limit
  • “Mangler” Cannon
  • Kyle Katarn
  • Outrider
  • Engine Upgrade

Corran can get

  1. Steath device (3) (But this has yet to prove useful - saved me only once or twice).
  2. Hull upgrade (3) (just in case)
  3. Flechette Torpedoes (2)
  4. Plasma Torpedoes (3)

Both torpedoes seem good, because this could allow a heavy 2nd attack in the End Phase. Flechette gives the initiative bid also. I could remove VI and change it for something else, but that ruins the point of Corran, I guess.

Dash, on the other hand, could get

  1. Advanced Homing Missiles (3)
  2. Ion Pulse Missiles (3)
  3. Proton Rockets (3)
But I don't want to put more points into the already expencive ship.
There is a torunament comming up, and I am sure to face 4xY-wing with TLT, a Vader, Fel, Palpmobile who I still have problems countering.
Your ideas on the use of the last 3 points are very welcome.
