New Player - Looking for help with Scum

By CynicalCode, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi all,

I'm looking for information, specifically:

  • What are the strengths of the list?
  • What are the weaknesses?
  • What improvements or changes would you make?

The aim is to take a list to a local tournament that I don't expect to do well in, but would like to be competitive and have fun.

Here are the scum lists I'm toying with at the moment:

Four Ship TLT:

  • Binayre Pirate + Feedback Array
  • Syndicate Thug + TLT
  • Syndicate Thug + TLT
  • Prince Xizor + Veteran Instincts, Autothrusters, Virago, Advanced Sensors

The theory is to use the Z-95 to block for the Y-Wings (as a mobile base of fire). Xizor follows closely and rolls out for the killing blow once the primary target is weakened.

Two Big Ships:

  • Kath Scarlet + Veteran Instincts, Heavy Laser Cannon, Dengar, Glitterstim
  • Tel Trevura + Predator, K4 Security Droid, Unhinged Astromech, Punishing One

This one is less about theory and more a desire to play around with two big ships. I feel like this is one of the more potent Firespray builds, but the dial still hurts :(

Dengar + TLTs:

  • Dengar + Predator, K4 Security Droid, Unhinged Astromech, Punishing One
  • Syndicate Thug + TLT
  • Syndicate Thug + TLT

One of my first lists - just feels like a really solid mix of firepower and hull.

All feedback would be greatly appreciated!
