When is it too much stress?

By AldousSnow, in X-Wing

Is this amount of stress output worth the cost?

Kylo Ren pilot (34)

Kylo Ren's Shuttle (2)

Rebel Captive (3)

Mara Jade (3)

+ any other cards you need for a list

Mara is almost never worth it; only range 1 and only unstressed ships makes her by and large ignorable for many if not most lists.

Put in Tactician in her place and you've got a decent stress controller, but it's probably too costly to get much else in at 40+ points.

The unstressed part of Mara is the big negative. Agreed. Didn't even think of Tactician. Thanks. Trying out a new stress controller for my Imperial lists.
