Chopper + tactician + autoblaster just sounds like a lot of fun to me. 5 dice at range 1 in the front or back, or 2 unblockable dice at range 1 on the sides, plus the added bonus of stressing anyone that runs into you? sign me up for that.
But at ps4 or even hera's ps7, no ace would ever get caught in that mess. EU is nice, but still at ps7 its not reactive enough.
Then I thought of squad leader. Let someone else tell the ghost to boost. The only question was who?
Higher PS the better. So here's the list of candidates:
Cracken - wouldn't need squad leader, but just too fragile. He'd be the first target 100% of the time.
Wedge - could do something really funky like SL + bb8 + EI, but kind of pricey. Would have to go leebo on the ghost and lose either zeb or tactician. Not terrible, but limits wedge to 1 of 4 greens
Luke - just a single point cheaper than wedge, 1 less PS, and a little tankier.
Poe - too expensive
Jan - possible, would be able to put on a TLT, but a little squishy
Tycho - ps8 and 2 att, but can ptl and SL with AT, far more flexible
So I settled on Tycho for the flexibility. He adds the flexibility to the ghost's action economy that's sorely needed while not jeopardizing himself too much.

Then gets blown up by triple scouts..... maybe switch FCS for reinf deflectors
I'd also prefer Jake over Tycho just for the pilot ability, replace squad leader with Juke or switch FCS for Accuracy correctors (automatic 2 hits on both attacks)
