Planning to run the following list in an upcoming store tournament and I would really appreciate any advice you guys could give:

Dash Rendar (36)

-Outrider (5)

-Heavy Laser Cannon (7)

Gold Squadron Pilot (18)

-Twin Laser Turret (6)

Gold Squadron Pilot (18)

-Twin Laser Turret (6)

Total: 96

The idea is that Dash will fly around, constantly pumping out HLC shots, while the Y-Wings play clean up. Since all my ships will have a 360 arc, I don't need to worry too much about lining up shots and with Dash behind the helm, the YV-2400 has unmatched freedom of movement. My main problem is that I don't know what to with the last 4 points, though I do have some ideas. Let me know what you guys think.

1. PTL and Nien Numb (4)

Gives Dash the ability to target lock and focus in the same turn (making those hlc attacks even scarier) and 50% more green maneuvers for stress clearing. Downside is this is a high stress meta.

2. Leebo and Lone Wolf (4)

Gives the Outrider access to the boost action and a defensive/offensive re-roll if alone. As for the ion token, it's only a problem if my opponent is packing ion weapons, which I don't expect to run into too much with all the TLTs flying about.

3. VI and Leebo (3)

Again, allows for boosting, alongside a PS of 9. Plus a 99 point squad for initiative bidding.

4. VI and Weapons Engineer (4)

PS 9 and the ability to set up extra target locks for later turns of shooting.

R3A2 on a gold and VI on Dash

Dash without his perks seems dull to me. Maybe it can work, dependant on meta

I would give Predator and Intelligence Agent for Dash. So you can look were opponent flies and can Barrel Roll opposite to not get cough in Range 1. Predator is just good dice reroll.

Next possibility is 3CPO+VI or ReconSpecialist+VI

Don't like your 4 variants to give Dash here.

R3A2 on a gold and VI on Dash

Very nice idea

Unfortunately I don't have R3-A2, C-3PO, or Intelligence Agent (though I guess I could pick up a HWK to get it). How about Kyle Katarn with VI?

Predator on Dash is a good idea. Fellow recently won a store championing basically the exact build you've listed (bring debris fields)

Thanks for the advice.

Dash needs engine upgrade and PTL to work right (preferably Katarn too). Otherwise keeping most ships out of the donut hole is going to be tough. You will likely having to barrel roll a lot which will kill your offense. Yeah the HLC throws 4 dice, but even 4 dice without modifiers aren't all that great. If you have to run two TLTs, I would at least go with PTL and Nien on Dash.

You could drop one of the Ys to a Rebel Op and run LW/EU

Before picking up Hwk and Inteligence Agent, i suggest play a couple games and proxy it or borrow

This. At least with Nien, you've got a green 4 straight that can relieve (PtL) stress as well as get some distance. Will help make up at least a bit for not having Engine Upgrade.

What about something like this:

Dash Rendar (36)

-Outrider (5)

-Mangler Cannon (4)

-PTL (3)

-Engine Upgrade (4)

Gold Squadron Pilot (18)

-Twin Laser Turret (6)

Gold Squadron Pilot (18)

-Twin Laser Turret (6)

Total: 100

I lose the extra die from the HLC, but gain the auto-crit from the mangler. Alternatively, I guess I could drop the TLT Y-Wings for something else, if you guys have a better suggestion.

This list i like Just question, do you need PTL? Maybe Predator better for it? As you can reroll?

Sadly, won't have Predator till the Ghost releases Besides, PTL gives me a lot of flexibility on actions.

If you dont have predator, PTL is fine
