By Rellik94, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Just something I came up with to see what can be possible with the ships once Vets is released

"Redline" (27)

Extra Munitions (2)

Ion Pulse Missiles (3)

Cluster Missiles (4)

Colonel Vessery (35)

Ion Cannon (3)

TIE/D (0)

Captain Jonus (22)

Rebel Captive (3)

TIE Shuttle (0)

Total: 99

I like the ship pairing, but I feel like you're shortchanging Redline a little. I don't think Jonus's pilot ability is neccessary - Vessery and Redline both get locks for their attacks easily - so you can probably drop him to a lower PS pilot. Redline really wants FCS, especially with Clusters, and I think plasma torpedoes beat out ion pulse missiles. And don't forget Guidance Chips! As for Vessery, Twin Ion Engine Mk. II is great on any defender, and Veteran Instincts will allow him to shoot before Vessery to ensure he gets his locks. Dropping Jonus to a Gamma Squadron Veteran with Adaptability keeps the bomber at PS 6 and brings you to 100 exactly; if you want, you could drop to a Scimitar and take another crew (Rebel captive could be good for keeping him alive, and Darth Vader could give him a potent offensive option).

Yeah jonus isn't really needed in this type of list. Also are you not adding a guidance chip or a long range scanner to redline for some reason? Could also add crackshot to jonus to make him help out a little.
