wampa + palpatine

By Higgo, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I'm slowing being seduced by the dark side and a wampa/ palp build seems like it could be great. 2 (ideal) rounds and you could have a dead corran, whisper and poe wouldn't be too far behind.

Has anyone seen it/ used it? What did they fill the gaps with?

Works REALLY well with Colzet who can then flip the card face up at the end of the turn with a Target Lock, you have a good chance of taking out ANY 2 hull ship (E-wing, A-Wing, the new Attack Shuttle, Z-95, Tie Phantom or M3-A) in a single turn, with ONE shot and not even having to worry about shields.

Advanced Homing Missiles on Major Rhymer (modifies ordnance ranges by +/-1) do a very similar thing though and for 34 points with 2 sets of AHM and Extra Munitions, chuck on Crack Shot or Predator for extra laughs.

As I said in the linked post above, I have been having good success with:

Omega Leader with Juke and Relay

Wampa

Omicron with Palp and Sensor Jammers

Zeta Leader with Predator and Relay

A little light on HP for my taste, but can throw 10 dice for burning down bigger ships, and has numbers to help against swarms, and all 4 ships are considered higher priority targets.
