Possible Regionals List: 3 T-70s

By Endman, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So I've been doing some experimenting with the T-70 and I'm really impressed with how it performs, the Red Squadron Veteran in particular. I've been running two of them in the following configuration and found them to be consistent, powerful ships if also very expensive:

Red Squadron Veteran (26)

Crack Shot (1)

Proton Torpedoes (4)

R2 Astromech (1)

Guidance Chips (0)

Depending on how you spend the remaining 36 points, there's a very real possibility of sinking a Jumpmaster, Lambda Shuttle or other similarly high-HP target in a single combat phase.

So how do you spend those remaining points? I would hesitate before just adding another Veteran because there's the rest of the meta to consider; The Inquisitor and Omega Leader in particular. So I came up with this, because I'm a sucker for themes:

Ello Asty (30)

Veteran Instincts (1)

Proton Torpedoes (4)

R5-X3 (1)

Guidance Chips (0)

PS 9 beats both the aforementioned Imperial pilots for skill, Torpedoes ensure nothing is lost from the initial alpha-strike, and Ello with R5-X3 (the most underrated droid) can Talon Roll through obstacles and take an action afterwards.

Thoughts/criticism?
