I mean, that's the list. It ain't getting any better than that ![]()
I do VASTLY prefer the far sexier Norra over Cirran, but yours is probably the optimal combination of the 3 ships you're using
This list is almost identical to mine - I posted it just a few minutes ago. The only difference is that you put Corran instead of Miranda.
I tested both options and in my experience Miranda is better pick - with Homing Missiles she is hybrid of Corran (5 attack dice vs 6 attack dice) and Wes (no evade tokens allowed). Also she is immune to bomb lists, meanwhile unlucky Corran can die to just one Proton Bomb. Also Miranda is in a way immune to Defenders (360' shooting) and Corran does not. Also Miranda doesn't relies on good evade dice - meanwhile Corran does - unlucky defensive rolls may ruin his day.
So to sum it up - really solid list, but in my opinion it would work better with Miranda as main pilot.
I just think gunner and double tap would synergize really well by forcing the opponent to use all of their tokens.
Biggs, Braylen, and a regen ace is going to be a common archetype this wave methinks. You have 42pts for your choice of regen ace to match your playstyle:
42 Corran w/ VI, FCS, R2D2.
42 Miranda w/ TLT, HomingM, Jan, LRS. -OR- TLT, HomingM, EM, Chopper, Chips.
40 Norra w/ PtL, R2D2, TailG, VTs. (+Fletchette on Braylen)
Maybe even:
40 Poe w/ VI, R2D2, WG, AT.
It's a solid archetype. I took Corran, Biggs, and Braylen in the vassal MM league, and they performed very well.
Edited by CRCLMaybe even:
40 Poe w/ VI, R2D2, WG, AT.
Alternatively, you can do R5-P9 and Pattern Analyzer once HOTR arrives.
Either way, I agree with the above that Biggs + Braelen + Ace = Brutal! ![]()
I don't think Weapons Guidance is a good choice on Poe due to his high PS. Sensor Cluster is much more useful as he is likely to be defending after attacking.Maybe even:
40 Poe w/ VI, R2D2, WG, AT.
R5P9 + Pattern Analyzer is going to be aweome. I just like WG when paired with Biggs to increase your damage in the early game, while Biggs is alive. You don't need the focus for defense and WG with Poe's ability makes you shot almost as good as a TL + Focus shot.
The issue I have with Poe is Homing-Miranda, Corran, and Norra all hit really hard. I'm not sure if Poe hits hard enough to be put in that list.

Just my opinion but I believe Biggs Wes Corran is a popular combo for a reason.
Edited by TgLokiForgot you also run him at PS 10. Makes a world of difference against pesky pilots like Whisper.
What about some of the positives of Corran? You can hit an enemy whilst he is down, after burning all tokens from 3 previous attacks that final attack when timed right is often a killing blow. You can equip fcs which speaks for itself. If at range 1 you can roll 8 dice in one round (modified thanks to fcs). You don't need to be in range to regen, Miranda has to be in range and sacrifice firepower for her regen (a problem against turret ships). I agree Miranda is probably better against defenders but the idea of a list like this is to choose the one on one late game matchup to which Corran often excells.This list is almost identical to mine - I posted it just a few minutes ago.

I agree with your points, Corran has some advantages over Miranda - but she also has some advantages over him (this is one of the reasons I tested both options - both pilots are late game regenerating monsters who works quite different). But in in my opinion as long as Defenders are dominating or Bombing K-Wings lists are common contenders (as it is in my local meta) - Miranda is a better pick.
I really hope meta will become more Corran friendly because this pilot and this ship are my favourite in the whole game.
Poes fine with ptl pa; hits like a noodle otherwise
Biggest problem is trying to go back to the rather puny t70 after experiencing the majesty of the K or ARC170
