Heroes of the Resistance List idea

By CJKeys, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Rey - YT-1300

Veteran Instincts

Engine Upgrade

Tactician (Or Kanan Jarrus)

Gunner

Millenium Falcon Title (New)

Poe Dameron (PS9) - T-70 X-Wing

Veteran Instincts

R2-D2

Autothrusters

Black One

The idea is a super maneuverable and repositionable list that can out fly aces lists with a Large base Ship and a Regen ship.

Here's something similar (insofar as it's Rey/Poe) I had come up with:

Rey (45)

+ Engine Upgrade (4)

+ Daredevil (3)

+ Kanan Jarrus (3)

+ Kyle Katarn (3)

+ Millenium Falcon TFA (1)

Poe Dameron PS8 (31)

+ Push the Limit (3)

+ Autothrusters (2)

+ BB-8 (2)

+ Black One (1)

This comes to 98 points which leaves room for Flechette Torpedoes on Poe, Weapons Guidance or another future Tech, or an Initiative bid. Both pilots at PS8 gives you flexibility in move/shoot order. BB-8/PtL/B1 on Poe lets you potentially remove TL's from both ships and as a super awesome added bonus is highly thematic. Rey's build trades some of the Falcon's usual defense for crazy movement shenanigans (title/Engine/Daredevil) and double Focus from the Kanan/Kyle combo when you DD. This build sounds like a lot of fun and I look forward to trying it out on a table.

This DOES look fun. First time I've seen a list with Poe that actually tempted me to run it :P
