100 points starter list

By Lordhails, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi all me and my younger brothers have just got into x wing miniatures and are planning a few games soon. I bought the force awaken core,slave1,falcon y wing and tie advance. Wondering on your thoughts for 100 point lists for rebels and imperial forces using the above sets

Many thanks

Have pretty much this exact same group of ships although I have the original set initially and added the decimator, houndstooth and yt-2400, rebel aces & imperial aces. Any help would be greatly appreciated as a sample arc dodger, jouster etc.. sample list.

For your first non-introductory games you'll want to play with fewer than 100 points. To get to 100 you need to use upgrades which will be hard to use at first when the players will be having a hard enough time lining up shots and avoiding rocks.

Later you could go with these:

Chewbacca with Falcon Title, Draw Their Fire, Gunner, and Nien Nunb

Blue Squadron Novice with BB8

Y Wing with Ion Cannon Turret and R2 Astromech

(100 points)

Boba Fett with Elusiveness, Proximity mines, Mercenary Copilot and Engine Upgade

Darth Vader with Marksmanship and Stealth Device

Epsilon Squadron Pilot

(100 points)

I made some changes so that the two teams wouldn't have to share upgrade cards. Both sides would like to use Gunner and Engine Upgrade but you only have one of each right now.

Hope this helps!


Thanks guys. I faced one of my brothers last night who was running a tie swarm. My list was:

Poetry with weapon guidance

Chewie with nim in the Falcon.

Gold pilot with ion cannon

The game was a comedy of errors but lots of fun. Poe was awesome the y wing did nothing of note. Chewie just flew round getting shot up. But in the end victory was mine. No lost ships
