Feedback on Rebel Tournament list

By witness1, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Hi all! My first post here in the Armada section =)

I recently got into Armada (previously X-wing) and have played ~ 3 games. I have one of each expansion (Rebels only).

In a couple of weeks I'm heading to my first tournament and the list should be ready to send in the next few days. I would like to get some feedback =)

The list is built around negating opponents their defence tokens and try to hit hard on one of the capital ships sections. The 3 x-wings is a try; defending my big ships and with Jan Ors resist some damage themselves. The corvett is for grabbing objective tokens. Is Ackbar the right choice? I was quite found of Garm also but then the list should be built different?

Drop xI7 off the ce90, add ECM to your cruiser, and change opening salvo to advanced gunnery and you should be good

Thanks! Will do the changes. I guess the MC80 needs all the tools to survive becaurse of expected heavy fire.

Any particular hard match ups I should have in mind?

Also swap out the Intel officer from the CR90 for a set of TRCs.

Switch Opening Salvo for Advanced gunnery or Most wanted.

I swaped out the upgrades peoples suggested. Thanks for the inputs!

I think you'll find this article useful:

(Check out some other ones leading up to this as well)

I'm 3-0 in the Spring tournament season with a very similar list.

"Dash and the 2x YTs will do what they can to keep Fireballs at bay..."

What is this Fireball? Is yt-2400 a standard squadron every Rebel list should/must contain?

3 x-wing with Jan was something I picked up from a podcast and thought it might be a good ground for squadron in the list.
