Casual list taking on a Decimator tonight

By BlodVargarna, in X-Wing Squad Lists

My friend is keen to use his Decimator tonight and I think he will also fly a phantom. What do you guys think of this:

A's and B's (100)

Blue Squadron Pilot (32) - B-Wing

Accuracy Corrector (3), Heavy Laser Cannon (7)

Jake Farrell (31) - A-Wing

Swarm Tactics (2), Proton Rockets (3), A-Wing Test Pilot (0), Munitions Failsafe (1), Veteran Instincts (1)

Prototype Pilot (15) - A-Wing

Chardaan Refit (-2)

Blue Squadron Pilot (22) - B-Wing

Do away with the Accuracy Corrector and add a Fire Control System. Getting only 50% usage out of a HLC potential damage, well, no.... Also, on Jake, if he is taking a Decimeter, you NEED autothrusters to assist in damage mitigation.....

Thanks for that.

Based on the advice I've switched out AC for FCS and dropped MSF for AT.

This list burned the Decimator down pretty quick. Then Whisper destroyed the B wings in short order. The As were nearly destroyed too. Whisper is such a great arc dodger and his 4 evades were hard to put damage on. However my plucky prototype A wing pilot managed to put a couple of hits on him during the initial battle so Whisper had just 2 hull left in the end game.

Some lucky evade rolls kept the prototype around and then in the end Whisper made a critical error and wound up in range 1 of both As with no shot on either. Instead of using his action to cloak, Whisper barrel rolled away from range 1. The As managed to put 2 more hits on whisper between them and the Rebellion won the day.
