Hey all! I'be been toying with the idea of flying Tycho Celchu with the following upgrades (PTL, Rage, A-Wing test pilot, proton rockets, with either auto thrusters or stealth device) and I was not sure what ships would best compliment this. With stealth device, Tycho comes in at 36 pts. My current collection is listed in my signature ( I plan on adding Punishing One and Mist Hunter to my collection). I'd also appreciate any feedback on what ships might best augment my collection (Rebels and Scum being my favs).

Hi,
Yeah it seems good. I just made a post..didn't know you had this one.... I was thinking Tycho +PTL + Rage + AT + testpilot and Chardaan refit (30 points)
Rage Tycho needs someone to draw fire for him. Without an interceptor's double mod slots, he can't absorb damage consistently--if someone is focusing him down, he has to run away. To that end, I would fly him with either SuperDash or a regen ship (Poe, Miranda, or maybe Corran). Use the second ship to draw fire and let Tycho flank and pester the enemy.
Have run tycho with 3 green squadron pilots a few times recently, the games take a while but if you manoeuvre right, it's hard to pin down, need to try it out vs the 3 scout list but it's a lot of fun to fly and with tycho getting 4 stress a turn but pseudo tl plus focus plus evade/boost or another focus he's actually quite hard to hurt in general. The other 3 have auto thrusters as my green dice tend to hate me the more of them I have to roll so at range 3 and vs turrets it's too handy to get rid of.
I know proton rockets are tempting as was but I think it's better to make him cheaper as a flanker/harasser and this will also make your opponents think about shooting the rest of your squadron if your worried about tycho being focused down too quickly

One build I am considering is angry celchu as outfitted in my original post (with auto thrusters ), Biggs with R2 and shield upgrade, and gold squad Y-wing with tlt, engine upgrade and the basic R2 astromech. This comes in at 99 points. I've got Biggs as a good screen for either of the two ships. Primarily I want to use the proton rockets, rage, focus and a possible target lock to give me one hell of an alpha strike. Make your opponent think Biggs and the Y-wing are the threat and punch a hole in him with the A-wing. This list uses all cards I've got in my current collection which is a boon to me.
