Ion Cannon variant of Stresshog. (More control than the TLT version, even if it has less damage. BTL-A4 probably not worth here.).
Any number of generic X-Wing builds

Edited by DraconPyrothayanFor 25, I like:
Gold Squadron w/TLT and R2
Jake Farrell w/ Push the Limit and Chardaan Refit
Green Squadron w/ Chardaan Refit, PTL, AutoThrusters, A-Wing Test Pilot, Crack Shot (2 point Init bid)
Blue Squadron Novice w/R2 Astromech and Integrated Astromech
Blue Squadron w/ Fire Control System (1 pt Init Bid)
2 x Bandit Squadron Pilots + 1 pt Init Bid (or Bandit + Tala)
Edited by HawkstrikeGreen Squadron w/ Chardaan Refit, PTL, AutoThrusters, A-Wing Test Pilot, Crack Shot (2 point Init bid)
PTL + Wired (also 2 pt init)
PTL + Juke (1 pt init)
You could downgrade autothrusters on red ace to integrated astromech and that gets you the points for tlt stresshog.
I agree. Even though ion stresshog is good and 1 point cheaper its not TLT stresshog. R3 double stress and 3 attacks is huge.
Alternatively, field a Y-Wing with no turret whatsoever.
Targeting Astromech + Ordnance + Guidance Chips ahoy!
I've been considering this:
Airen Cracken (19)
Veteran Instincts (1)
Homing Missiles (5)
Guidance Chips (0)
Total: 25
View in Yet Another Squad Builder
Cracken will die early but he's likely going to ruin Soontir's day.
Ruin Soontir's day, you say?
Lieutenant Blount (25)
Z-95 Headhunter (17), Advanced Homing Missiles (3), Deadeye (1), Shield Upgrade (4)
If you get hit in R2, insta-crit. If you don't get him in R2, it's because he's too busy dodging you and is fodder for the rest of your list.
Green squadron pilot with chardaan, autothrusters, PTL, and Outmaneuver is my favorite
2x z95
blocking and more dice will do you wonders. if you fly your blockers right they will be devastating on enemy action economy.

Blockers are always good to have

Gemmer is amazing vs. TLTs... annoyingly tough to kill and might even do some damage.
Autoblaster turret Warden squad pilot since all the good ones are mentioned. With slam and an anti-ace bubble it could work

Make it just a PWT with IA to work as a nasty blocker.
Why would you not take Tarn Mison??? For 25 points he cant be beat. Give him R7 and IA and he will not let you down. Since IA he has always been worth his points when ever I use him.

This worked wonders for me at my last store championship. Really good for 25 points
That's a cool build. Gonna have to try that sometime.

I'm a fan of the Green Squadron Pilot at that price.
Grn Sqd 19pts
Proto vet 0pts
Refit -2pts
Autothrusters 2pts
PtL 3pts
Lone wolf 2pts
It's such a pain to kill ( until the green dice just sat no )
For 25pts if you're looking for some 'support' options here's a few even though they're rather barebones.
Dutch + A4 + ABT
Roark + TLT
IF you can survive without VI on Poe here's a decent 26pts support ship.
Katarn + Jan (crew) + Moldy Crow
Considering you've got Com Relay on the Red Ace you could pre-load an Evade token on him even before he drops a shield.
---
Another possibility is Roark + Jan (crew) and changing Poe's load out to:
Poe Dameron — T-70 X-Wing 31
Juke 2
R5-P9 3
Comm Relay 3
Autothrusters 2
Ship Total: 41
Sure you essentially have only 2 attackers. But the Combination of JCrew + Juke + Com Relay in addition to Poe's skill turns him into quite the beatstick... you don't 'need' to spend that Evade Poe's holding if you don't need to. And Roark still gives you First Shot until he bursts into flames.
Considering you've got Com Relay on the Red Ace you could pre-load an Evade token on him even before he drops a shield.
With R2D2 you can do that without Jan ... position a rock in your corner and just hit it on round 1; hope for a hit/crit result.

True but you're trusting dice to load him up. And it also pulls a rock away from a potentially stronger placement depending on what you're facing for the match.
