TIE Shuttle

By Eusmilus, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hello,

I am planing to try the TIE Shuttle title. For the first crew upgrade I selected the system officer. But I am not sure which one to choose for the second one. Any suggestions?

Thanks for any reply

Fleet officer synergises pretty well with systems officer. Fleet officer passes 2 focus and gains a stress, so you take green maneuvers. So the little bomber buddy would be passing around a target lock and 2 focus per turn.

Fleet/Systems/Mk2 is a nice loadout for a support shuttle.

Thank you for the replies. I will try the shuttle with Fleet/Systems/ and Mk2 and maybe I will write a short experience report.

Put it on Jonus and use 2-3 Gamma Vets with ordinance, chips and Deadeye.

I usually only fill one of the crew slots to keep it cheap.

Thank you for the replies. I will try the shuttle with Fleet/Systems/ and Mk2 and maybe I will write a short experience report.

Good Luck.

I've used a Fleet Officer/Systems Officer/Twin Ion Engines MkII Jonus leading a carrier group of bombers and it's nothing short of amazing.

For a nasty (albeit expensive support craft) I like the following:

Tomax Bren

Twin Ion Mk11

Fleet Officer

Systems Officer

Tie Shuttle title

Coolhand

31 pts

At PS8 he's often able to ride behind a formation. Coolhand let's him take a focus or evade token each time he gets stressed. Swoop up behind your formation, give your heavy hitter a TL, pass out a couple foci, and give yourself an evade or focus as needed. You end up with nine different green maneuvers to choose from. Finally, after a red maneuver you can still token up.

I like this builds:

Captain Jonus (22)
Systems Officer (2)
Fleet Officer (3)
Twin Ion Engine Mk. II (1)
TIE Shuttle (0)

Total: 28

or

Scimitar Squadron Pilot (16)
Rebel Captive (3)
Darth Vader (3)
Hull Upgrade (3)
TIE Shuttle (0)
