Not by much:

I have two ideas in mind:

(99/100)

Keyan Farlander: Rage + HLC (37)

Biggs Darklighter: R4-D6 + IA (26) [standard]

Poe Dameron: R2-D2 + DTF + IA (36)

or

(100/100)

Keyan: Rage + HLC + B-wing/E2 + Kanan Jarrus or Jan Ors (41)

Biggs: R4-D6 + IA (26) [standard]

Red Squadron Veteran: R2-D2 + DTF + Autothrusters (33)

Dilemmas:

-Poe is awesome!

-Does autothrusters balance out Poe's defence?

-Can Red hit as hard as poe?

-Keyan hits hard with Kanan he has more freedom but with Jan when I rage I can turn that focus into an Evade... so he gets 1 stress for focus on attacks, 3 out 4 dice get rerolled if needed and gets an evade every time he rages.

Side Note:

I also tried "Red Ace" with R2-D6 giving him draw their fire and then using "comms relay" but only got to use 1 evade token. Biggs takes a lot of damage and draw their fire works. I can only assume it works even better with R2-D2. Haven't tried it yet.

Side Note to the side note:

I just don't want to use Wes cause I like the T-70.

Suggestions please!

I like Poe better. But I would ditch DTF. After Biggs dies, you will want something else. Lone Wolf, Predator, Push the Limit, and VI are all pretty good on Poe.

I would also drop the HLC from Keyan, just to save points. Keyan with Rage really likes B-Wing/E2 + Jan Ors. When he rages, he can change the focus token to an evade token. If you have the points for Advanced Sensors, then he can do that before revealing a green maneuver and he will lose all of his stress before the end of the round. Also, Biggs could use that evade token in the opening rounds. Kanan Jarus is also a good choice with Advanced Sensors, but the evade token is better for defense than the focus token, since he's rolling only one defense die.

That's just my thoughts, though.

Good luck.

Jan Ors + R2D2 crew + DTF + TLT

Jan DTFs then gets shields back at end of round thanks to R2. She attacks first, and TLT can drain tokens like wes. Bumps farlanders HLC to Five dice. Something to try? I dunno, just popped in my head. Brace yourself nice cuz wes removes tokens no matter what. Jan with tlt has that chance, plus buffing farlanders attack. attack

Autothrusters on Poe is a great upgrade. You are at 99 points on the first list so if you swap R2-D2 for R5-P9 you will have points for those thrusters and it means Poe is not limited to greens if he wants to Regen.

I agree that HLC might be overkill on Keyan but Advanced Sensors look solid. If you want to try Red Ace then R2-D2 really fits well there. Even tankier than Poe (although slightly lower damage output and really benefits from having Jan Ors nearby to top up your Comms Relay). You will have to decide how you balance offence and defence.

To address all the comments, and thanks by the way, the only reason Wes was in the list was to remove tokens yes. But that's if you want to use opportunist on keyan and only stress him once, which only works if the target has no tokens.

I am not as concerned with striping tokens since (not including poe) Keyan probably fires first if you have Red Ace or Red Vet. 4 shots all all ranges and no extra dice at R3 is pretty sweet. With rage it's almost always 4 hits considering you get to burn 1 stress, change focus to hits, and reroll up to three dice. I see where advance sensors would be king here and I have considered dropping to a mangler.

Thoughts on the mangler on keyan?

I will try Keyan without a cannon next and beef up poe, but I still think for Biggs to survive Poe will need to take that DTF.

Poe can actually strip a token here and there just by hitting too and keep the focus for defence. Then Keyan can go to work.

For "brace yourself" to work you really need 1 ship flying formation with Biggs with draw their fire taking away that one crit that goes threw almost always or else Biggs dies a whole lot faster. Red Ace with R2-D2 won't pull any crits because he doesn't have a Elite Talent Slot for some reason. It's almost as if it was done on purpose, make a T-70 perfect for draw their fire and then not let him have draw their fire.

Again my goal is to make something with a T-70 and it could be any T-70.

How about:

Keyan: Rage + AS + B-wing/E2 + Jan Ors

Poe: DTF + R2-D2 (I don't have R5-P9 sadly) + Autothursters

Biggs: R4-D6 + IA

(100/100)

Biggs becomes extra crazy with an evade from Jan Ors as long as I stay in formation. R2-D2 will work fine because the greens are very similar. Once Biggs goes down however the formation should break and Poe should take advantage of his Dial while Keyan slowly dies.

I like it.
