Out for some Bounty...

By ChewfalconSolo, in X-Wing Squad Lists

"But if you fail me again, I'll put a price on your head so big you won't even be able to go near a civilized system!"

I just recently got my hands on the Most Wanted pack. Despite trading some of it away, I really wanted to dig into Boba Fett and his filthy dirty ability.

However.

Being still new to this game. List building still is not my forté. So can I ask for any help here? Here's my starting point:

Firespray-31

Boba Fett

Veteran Instincts

Gunner

Engine Upgrade

Inertial Dampeners

Total: 50 pts

IG-2000

IG-88B

Veteran Instincts

Heavy Laser Cannon

Fire Control System

Autothrusters

50 pts

Squad Total: 100 points

Not totally sure if I should consider Lone Wolf on Boba Fett or not, or whether this does/does not need anything else.

But my goal is to constantly be attacking with Boba Fetts ability. Arc Dodging as well with IG-88B having Autothrusters and boost built in.

Push the Limit on Boba Fett is risky, but I think 100% worth it. Despite clearing Stress on the Firespray-31 is pretty simple to predict with only 4 Green Maneuvers.

IG-88B has a built in Gunner with Laser upgrades. Hence why I opted for Mangler over HLC. I can fire at any range and still be effective.

I can maintain action economy by not having Push the Limit on both my pilots in this list, due to the fact that clearing Stress as I mentioned is easy to read.

IG-88B can move around the board pretty well. Boba Fett can almost always secure a R1 spot with EU and PTL.

Any suggestions? Comments? All input is welcome :)

Looks pretty good, though I would put outmaneuver on boba. Really makes that secondary firing arc nasty.

Switch those EPTs around. Boba loves VI and IG can handle PTL much better.

Between RecSpec and Gunner, go with the second. Your main action will be boost anyway. While at it, give Boba that 'stim.

Finally, give IG dat HLC. Mangler just doesn't cut it, the difference is huge.

The only way to get the points required to run HLC would be to take off Advanced Sensors though.

It would be the only way to fit both it and Gunner on Boba.

Hmmm...

Boba Fett

VI

Gunner

EU

IG-88B

PTL

HLC

FCS

Autothrusters

99 pts

What's wrong with this?

Nothing far as I can tell. Seems pretty legit! I'll have to give it a go once I grab an IG-2000.

Thanks for the input guys. Keep it coming :)

I've had a lot of fun with the following. IG-88 B was built especially for survivability in the Jumpmaster / Imp Swarm meta. Gave up some offense for much better defense.

B'Boba (99)

Boba Fett (47) - Firespray-31

Veteran Instincts (1), 4-LOM (1), Glitterstim (2), Engine Upgrade (4)

IG88-B (52) - Aggressor

Wired (1), Sensor Jammer (4), Heavy Laser Cannon (7), Glitterstim (2), Autothrusters (2)
