Advice needed...

By Deagles, in X-Wing Squad Lists

A few of us are starting on a campaign that is going to be a blast. To start, we each have 500pts to put into our Main fleet which can be made up of any ship we want within our faction...I went with Rebels...why...cause I like them and been playing them for a while. But, I was kinda thinking on maybe doing my 500pt list based around Lando, Wedge like at the Battle of Endor, with maybe a CR90 and a Transport.

So far:

CR90-Fore: 2x Turbo lasers, Sensor Team, Gunnery Team, shield tech. AFT: WED-15 droid, Quad lasers, Engineering team

Lando: Nien Nunb, Gunner (Not sure on Elite Pilot Talent) - didn't take Falcon...if it's destroyed it's gone from the campaign.

Wedge: Integrated Astromech, R2 unit (Unsure of EPT)

Horton: R2, TLT

Dutch: R2, TLT

Gray Y Wing: R2, TLT

Red Squadron X Wing: R2, Integrated Astromech

Red Squadron X Wing: R2, Integrated Astromech

Red Squadron X Wing: R2, Integrated Astromech

Keyan B Wing: Stay On Target, Fire Control

Dagger Squadron: Fire Control

474 of 500pts.

Only issue with having more characters is if they're ship is destroyed, on a roll of the die, the pilot may not survive the battle and is lost in the campaign...as in can't use the pilot anymore. So if Wedge is lost, then an Evade die is rolled and if the roll is an Evade...he lives...escaping death to fight again. If no Evade is rolled, then he's toast.

So...some suggestions on the the fleet...what can I put onto Lando and Wedge for the Elite Pilot Talent.

Thanks,

Doug

You've got space superiority in the X-Wings, Heavy hitters in the Y's with the B's as escorts for them.
It's Epic, I would look to Ionization. Perhaps some ordnance tubes on the CR-90

Thanks.

Wanting to know what Elite Talents Wedge and Lando should get.

Thought about Ordnance Tubes as well, still might do that too.

Thinking on Opportunist Outmaneuver for Lando and Wedge as well. Idea with Wedge would be to use the X-Wings to screen Wedge for him to get into position to use his ability and Outmaneuver talent.
