Are My First Two Lists a Fair Fight?

By Boba Rick, in X-Wing

Hi, just wondering if these Imperial and Rebel lists are a relatively fair fight. I own the Original Core, TFA Core, the Millennium Falcon, Slave 1, the Wedge pilot card and the Howlrunner Pilot card.

Here's what I made for 120 points each:

IMPERIALS:

Firespray-31: · Boba Fett (39)
Proximity Mines (3)
Stealth Device (3)

TIE Fighter: · "Howlrunner" (18)
Wired (1)
Shield Upgrade (4)

TIE/fo Fighter: · "Zeta Leader" (20)
TIE/fo Fighter: · "Epsilon Ace" (17)
TIE Fighter: · "Night Beast" (15)

REBELS:

X-Wing: · Wedge Antilles (29)
· R2-D2 (4)

T-70 X-Wing: · Poe Dameron (31)
· BB-8 (2)

YT-1300: · Han Solo (46)
· Luke Skywalker (7)
· Millennium Falcon (1)

I'd say they look pretty decent.

But you'd be better off swapping the stealth device and shield upgrade. The Stealth device will last longer and stop more damage on Howlrunner then the shield will. The stealth device on the firespray won't likely stop much if any damage on the other hand.

Wired on Howlrunner however may not do much. It only triggers when she's stressed, and TIE's don't stress a lot.

I'm assuming you'll be taking them in casual games right? Because you'd need the base plates for a tournament.

Your Rebels list, switch the two astromechs around so both ships have repositioning.

Change Luke for Gunner.

With the three points left over, look at Expert Handling for the Falcon for instance.

For the Imperials, drop the Stealth Device and Shield Upgrade. Give Boba Fett an Engine Upgrade. It'll help him turn around and keep some guns pointed at enemies.

Good advice, guys.

I do have the base plates for Howlrunner and Wedge, a couple of nice folks on FB set me up.

Next week I should be getting the Phantom and E-Wing, that will make things interesting!

You might consider switching R2-D2 and BB-8. Wedge is likely going to be your opponent's primary target, so he probably won't last too long even if he has R2 . . . BB-8 will give him extra mobility and help him dodge arcs. Poe has some mobility built-in with Boost, so R2-D2 will make him more survivable.

If you had recon spec I'd rather have that on boba than stealth or hull.

Or gunner. Do you have gunner? Put that on there without the prox mine!!
