Looking for something a little different

By balindamood, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I have been shuffling around trying to develop a new list and have landed on the following:

IG88B w/mangler, FCS, Outmaneuver, proxy mine, AT, Deadman switch

2x Spice runner w/ TLT and tactician.

The thought is that the IG is likely the first target, which will allow for the hawks, one on either side, to circle in and pile stress on any aces. They can even be ised as blockers. The prox mine will protect the flank, and when the ig blows up, it deals one last point of damage. Meanwhile, the Hawks will probably be un touched.

Probably over thinking this. Thoughts are welcome.

There is a very good chance your opponent will pounce on one of the HWK's to get them out of the way.

Slight alteration (the IG is in my preference, but take B if you feel more comfortable)

Spice Runner (16)
Twin Laser Turret (6)
Tactician (2)
Dead Man's Switch (2)
Spice Runner (16)
Twin Laser Turret (6)
Tactician (2)
Dead Man's Switch (2)
IG-88C (36)
Push the Limit (3)
Advanced Sensors (3)
"Mangler" Cannon (4)
Autothrusters (2)
Total: 100
Now your opponent has an incentive to stay away from the R1 doughnut hole.

I like the anti donut hole thing.

Well, it'll leave you with 12 points of customization on the IG, I think you'll manage. :D.
