There seems to be a lot of buzz regarding regenerating Norra, especially if you get her into late game unscathed. I have yet to try her out but I´m excited enough to give it a try. Biggs is the Rebel MVP these days, especially with ARC so I´m building around him.
So, with standard Norra (PtL, R2D2, title, TailGunner) 38 pts and standard Biggs 26, I have 36 more points to spend.
I used to play some Fat Han with 3 Zs back in the day (like a lot of people) and I remember how I used to think that those 36 points spent on the Zs were the most solid 36 points in the game of X-wing. They would simply always pull their weight if I played them well enough.
So, if my aim is to get Norra into a 1v1 endgame, how about having my opponent first having to go through Biggs and then the 3 Zs that used to shield the all-mighty Fat Han? Sure, I know there are a lot of things out there that don´t really fear the 2 red dice of the Z95. But, while Biggs is around they might actually get some really ice range-1 shots besides making really good blockers for Biggs and Norra. Plus, there is actually a large portion of the current meta that has 0 or 1 agility (PartyBus, VCX-100, Lambda, ARC) and the Jumpmaster has 2 agility which can be hit by Z95s.
So, my question is: Does the following list stand a chance in the current meta or should I go a different route with Norra?
Norra/PtL/R2D2/TailG/title 38 pts
Biggs/R4D6/IntAstro 26 pts
3x Z95 36 pts
