Deci + Firespray - SC

By SimplySi, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hey guys,

Look at using the following list at my local SC. What are your thoughts?

Commander Kenkirk - Expose; Emperor Palpatine.

Kath Scarlett - "Mangler" Cannon; Tactician.

100/100 pts.

PILOTS

Kath Scarlet (41)
Firespray-31 (38), Veteran Instincts (1), Tactician (2)

Rear Admiral Chiraneau (58)
VT-49 Decimator (46), Veteran Instincts (1), Emperor Palpatine (8), Rebel Captive (3)

PS10 and PS9 with a 1pt bid. When you need the stress from Kath's ability, you can always use Emperor (probably will use focus then fix her blanks with Emperor, anyway)

If they fire at the Deci, their highest PS ace will take a stress from Rebel Captive, then possibly be in trouble between Kath's ability backed by Emperor, or the tactician. Makes it a bit tougher on 'em, anyway.

Very interesting list - please let us know how you did :)

I think expose on Kenkirk is a bad idea. Any other deci is fine, but with him you are basically negating his ability to have that one agility when your shields go down. So if you wanna go Kenkirk, you might as well build more defensively to keep him around, otherwise choose another pilot. This is my go to Deci Spray list:

VT-49 Decimator: · Commander Kenkirk (44)

Determination (1)

· Ysanne Isard (4)

· Agent Kallus (2)

· Rebel Captive (3)

Firespray-31: · Krassis Trelix (36)

Heavy Laser Cannon (7)

Recon Specialist (3)

-- TOTAL ------- 100/100p. --

Kenkirk will be around a while with Ysanne evades, determination to help with some crits, and rebel captive to annoy the hell out of aces. Agent Kallus I'm on the fence about but can work well against other 2 ship builds or against your opponent's biggest threat.

Krassis with HLC is a usual 3-4 hits with his reroll and a focus, doubling up with rec spec to have some defense as well. This is fun to fly.

That is an interesting one as well.
