I really like the the triple X list, but it's turned from an annoyingly tanky list (5 AT A-wings is a nightmare to put down) into one of those lists that gets hard countered by turrets. IA & 6 health is pretty nice, but a huge advantage to the original is its tenacity, its relative immunity to turrets, and its strategic options regarding using boost and an insane dial to dictate range 3 combat...
CrAAXX Shot Vs. Chihuahuas. Rebel Crack Shot lists.
You're just ahead of the curve. Just wait until the $200 Scum Super Epic ship tat comes with the Scyk fix... And the starviper fix... And the Kihraxz fix....
Having 2 Scyks and only 1 Viper, I can say I am really ahead only on Khiraxzes, where I have 5 ![]()
I also have 3 Starvipers because people around here were buying them for the Autothrusters and I offered to buy the rest of the expansion. Got 2 of them for $5.
When the fix for Vipers and Scyks inevitably arrives, I am set.

5 Kihraxz's can be a fun list. I won a third M3-A at a tourney and gave it away...
I was thinking about a variant with Etahn and three green crack As to make those hits you push through into crits:
Etahn A'baht (32)
Juke (2)
Accuracy Corrector (3)
R7-T1 (3)
Green Squadron Pilot (19)
Crack Shot (1)
Chardaan Refit (-2)
Adaptability (0)
Autothrusters (2)
A-Wing Test Pilot (0)
Green Squadron Pilot (19)
Crack Shot (1)
Chardaan Refit (-2)
Adaptability (0)
Autothrusters (2)
A-Wing Test Pilot (0)
Green Squadron Pilot (19)
Crack Shot (1)
Chardaan Refit (-2)

My feeling is I've not hit on the right set up for Etahn yet.

Considering Etahn and Accuracy Corrector have anti-synergy, I'd say so. Maybe Fire Control System, R7 Astromech and Crackshot (because it isn't a crackswarm unless everyone has the crack). That saves you 3 points, which would allow you to put VI on all the A's to bump them to the same as Etahn. Just a thought.
Good thoughts. I was wondering what was bugging me about that set-up. One of those d'oh moments when you pointed out the AC thing. I'm not sure that the FCS is worth it without Gunner/Luke or some other second shot tech. I'll keep R7-T1 for the mobility and switch to Crackshot and VI on the Greens and see how it plays out.

Try Etahn with Electronic Baffler and R2D2. He gets hard to track down when he can k-turn and still act.
My Scyk list performed about as well as you'd expect from a Scyk list. It pushed through loads of crits (Mangler is awesome on Crack), but as expected, the Scyks popped like, well, popcorn. I did manage to go a game without even taking damage on my Scyks, but that happens when you play against someone that only started playing a few days ago. Against a more seasoned opponent I wasn't as lucky. They just need... a little something... more. It could be just one little thing and it would make a world of difference. Hopefully when they do finally fix the rich man's Tie Fighter I can revisit this list. For now, I am gonna shelf my pack of miniature dobermans (that is what I am calling them, they have loads more bite than the chihuahuas, but that tends to get them in trouble). I'll surely bring them out from time to time for fun, maybe alongside my triple Starviper list. ![]()
Maybe try 3 TSPand Serissu all with Crackshot. Can fit in a fully decked out Ndru. Glitter, Lone Wolf, Cluster Missiles.
