Inglorious Rexler

By Eagleye2, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hear me out! There may be some use for Omega Ace with the addition of Imperial Veterans. This list I've created in theory should get OA her target lock and focus before she even takes an action, leaving her with the ability to use expose as her action to ensure 3 crits each attack. The list doesn't completely cater to her either, as Rexler and Bren both hold their own. Let me know what you guys think.

Omega Ace (20)

Tie/fo Fighter

Expose (4)

Comm Relay (3)

Stealth Device (3)

Rexler Brath (37)

Tie Defender

Veteran Instincts (1)

Tie/D (0)

Tractor Beam (1)

Tomax Bren (24)

Tie Bomber

Crack Shot (1)

Tie Shuttle (0)

Fleet Officer (3)

Systems Officer (2)

Twin Ion Engine Mk.11 (1)

Total: 100

Sounds fun to try once, anyway. Also this is where Cool Hand could be good (on Tomax, so he can protect himself every time he uses The Officers™).

Yea I think it would be fun to run in a casual game for sure! That's a great suggestion with cool hand. I like the synergy of the two officers with the twin ion Mk.11 to clear that stress and gain it back each turn.

I'd say go with Juke instead of Expose on Omega to take the initiative bid. End of the day they have a similar effect, Juke removes an evade result (or focus token, if Rexler didn't already encourage that) while Expose straight up adds a crit (more useful if the enemy is 0 green).

Also could save 1 point by switching to Vessery or Stele with the same loadout... then there's enough for a PRocket on the D if you don't care for initiative, or Stele w/ Marksmanship if you think you can rule the joust. So many possibilities!
