This list might make it into the Vassal Wave 3/4 tournament. . . It needs a lot of work before I will consider it fully. . . Oh well, here is the initial list idea.

I am not sure why you have a flotilla
I am not sure why you have a flotilla
Bomber rerolls and activation.
There is no reason not to have the flotilla really. Sure I could fit more squadrons in but that is something that testing will bring up.
Looks like fun, especially with Bomber Command and Luke/XWings. I'm also hoping to get some use out of that with Wave 3!
I'd be tempted to swap the XI7s on Home One for a Wing Commander. With Flotillas in the mix there's the risk of getting caught by Slicer Tools. But still, you've got your Flotilla that could sit on a Squad Command any time you see Slicers closing in to launch a couple of shots instead. And I guess with Ackbar involved you'll still be getting 5 red dice so probably have enough attack to punch through with XI7.
Ok, maybe I've talked myself back out of that, I just feel happier with the Wing Commander in there for flexibility and responsiveness.

The MC80 is not the dedicated launching platform. I am actually questioning the Assault Frigate. I am thinking another TRC90 and BCC75 might be called for.

But the assault frigate is going to give you the biggest bang for your buck with Ackbar and the gunnery team. If you were to switch it out, I would think you should consider a different general entirely at that point. And more fighters with the extra BCC75.

I have to agree. Though TRC90's with Ackbar are very scary.
It works for me.
I'd look at dropping a couple of upgrades and Luke down to a regular X-Wing. It would give you the points for a couple of Y-Wings to get more mileage out of that BCC. Maybe also try to get Leading Shots onto Home One.

True but you have to be careful on how many squadrons there are. The Flotilla can only do so much. Leaving Luke and letting BCC help him out will do wonders I think. Wiffwalker may yet fly again

Which bombers? Those three Xwings which will spend most of them time defending your ships? They'd rather have Toryn Farr!
Activation is fair enough, but you have spent 38pts on that activation. Sounds like a corvette to me.

You might be surprised on how well it works. Sure the X-Wings can be thrown into the fray but meh, they have Jan, they should live long enough. Add in black and blue dice assistance from the other ships and we have the makings of a pretty nice strike force.
38 points. The GR75's Transport is 18, Bright Hope is 2, and Bomber Command Center is 8, that is only 28 points total. 11 points to under a CR90 B ![]()
