Developing List- Omega Flight Command

By Rakky Wistol, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Omega Leader + juke + Comms

Omega Ace + Juke + Comms

Scimitar Squadron + Shuttle + systems Officer + Fleet Officer+ MKII

Valen + PTL + title+ MKII

I always liked 4 ships instead of 3. 3 Aces+ a forth is hard to come by but this is the closest I can get. I'm not sure 4 2 dice ships, even with this many tokens and tricks can get it done, but here's one with tricks.

Tricks-

We all know OL can solo just about any ship. Well, now he can position at PS 8 since he'll have whatever token he needs already.

OA is potentially just as dangerous... If he has his tokens. With the help of the support bomber, he's can have whatever token he needs.

Valen certainly misses out on Prockets here. He gets a neat combo if the support shuttle can pass the TL to him instead of OA. Not sure that beats other options.

Alternative:

Tomax Bren flying the support shuttle and passing tokens at higher PS is an upgrade. Dropping Valen down to a Crackshot Scourge or other named tie might work just as well if slightly less comborific.

Pretty sure this is a list staying in the casual realm but what do you think?

Oh man. I'd initially misread Omega Aces pilot ability, and it sounds fantastic. I've got no suggestions but am really interested to see how this list or a variation of it does!

Edit: Though thinking about it would you not be better off with Push The Limit on Omega Aces to help get a target lock + focus as often as possible?

Appreciate my suggestion doesn't take into account the support bomber. Though I tend to prefer flying self sufficient ships myself.

I'm going to try flying:

Omega Leader - Juke and Comms Relay

Omega Ace - PTL and Comms relay

Zeta Leader - Predator

Baron of the empire - PTL, Autothrusters Title.

Might not be overly competitive but I bet it can be a lot of fun.

I had considered PTL for that purpose but pretty well expect him to be tethered to the bomber. The bomber can supply both TL and F. PTL is probably better since the support shuttle is basically Biggs. I do like Juke taking 1 evade away and dropping 2-3 crits.
