3 TIE Advanced Squadrons ( 36 points)

Fleet created with Armada Warlords

List 2: I think that XX-9 double crit effects won't combine with APTs as you can only take one type of crit effect from an attack. Also MC30s with 2 of each defence tokens shouldn't need ECMs often. Better to replace them with Redundant shields or advanced projectors.

5 B-Wing Squadrons ( 70 points)
1 X-Wing Squadron ( 13 points)

Fleet created with Armada Warlords

a warning from a fellow mc30 enthusiast - if you bring more than 2, the ones without titles will die very quickly under fire. I love em, but they need their titles to survive in black range. My foresight build can *barely* withstand a double arc from a glad with extra black dice (and usually kills them back) but without the title it would die a fiery death immediately.

ok thanks CenterPoint only had two until yesterday so I'll wait till I can try it out casually first

This leaves Fleets 1,3 & 4 still active

I've made a change to fleet 1 removing the XI7's from the Neb to change the Y-wings to X-wings

Dunno, I think this looks alright with Dodonna. There's no Gunnery Team to get the double bonus from Ackbar, and plenty of Bombers to take advantage of D's ability. XI7s help punch out shields to start landing hits on hull (especially for Keyan) and the objectives play into that pretty nicely as well.

I guess the plan could be just to use the bombers as a moving minefield and swirl with the AF2s, in which case I guess Ackbar works, but if the idea is to roll in with the AF2s commanding the B-Wings they'll want to get stuck in near the middle and could be using their front arc guns as well.
