IG list - Adaptability and TB or Crack Shot?

By KnightHammer, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi all, im sorting out my list for the local regionals and i have 1 point left over on each ship, im thinking either Adaptability and TB or Crack Shot (Mindlink is another posibility)

IG88 B and C - Autothrusters, FCS, HLC, Title, Glitterstim = 98points

Any suggestions, thanks

Adaptability, while good in certain instances, isn't that good here. Bumping up to PS7 (or down to PS5) doesn't help in a large majority of games. Aces will still be above you (PS8+) and generics will still be below you. True, you will gain the PS advantage against other IG builds.

Crack Shot, on the other hand, is wonderful. The threat that your opponent must roll (or spend tokens) to equal your hits/crits +1 is almost worth it as a threat alone, not to mention the potential damage. Forcing your opponent to spend more tokens, OH, and then GUNNER procs so they have to hope to roll more, well is quite nice.

TL;DR - go with Crack Shot just for the threat it poses.

Mindlink!!!!!

Love focus economy

Sloop both get stress, green move with other, both get focus

When on is on defense, evade, while other helps out to focus them up
