Noob Rebel/Imperial Lists...

By The22ndBattalion, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi, have been tooling around with a few lists, could you guys please critique/augment my lists? Thanks :) I have access to every small ship in the game, almost all upgrades, but my causal scene with my friends doesn't like large ships for a weird reason(so I don't have any large ships). I can proxy any upgrades tho...

Pls note that all lists are 101 points... It's a thing of ours...

As for Imperial lists... lol sorry not much experience with them...(friends like Imperials so I choose Rebels for thematic feel). Could you guys suggest a few lists for me to try out? Thanks :)

Any help or feedback is appriciated :)

If you like thematic games, fly something with Vader, Mauler and Backstabber. Fill in the rest of your squad with generic TIEs.

That's true... I'm fine flying thematic/not thematic lists actually, just like the X-Wing for some weird reason...

You still have points available. I would probably do Vectored Thrusters on Wedge over IA since he is a PS9 and repositioning at that high pilot skill is huge advantage that you are not taking. One barrel roll out of arc can save you more than IA ever will, not too mention getting more shots throughout the game. Plus after doing a green with R2, you can barrel roll and get shots. Wedge with his ability and predator wants shots!

After that, probably a fletchette torp on Wes. That way if you get a stressed ace in your sights, you can double stress him. Keep two points for initiative to help Wedge vs any PS9s.

Hmm should i go for engine upgrade or vectored thrusters on Wedge?

Engine Upgrade is more reliable for the purpose of getting out of arc. Vectored Thrusters is good for lining up shots and your initiative bid. If you plan on flying in formation, then neither. It doesn't make sense to have one ship in a formation that can reposition, especially while the other two can't get out of his way. Biggs and Wes move before Wedge, if they get blocked, Wedge gets blocked.
