Multi-faction list

By AdmiralSpjank, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hey all, in a local tournament and one of the weeks our list must consist of a ship from each faction. So 3 ships total. Pilots can cross factions for this list, so you could have a scum party bus with Vader, 3po and Luke on it if you wanted.

I had a few lists in mind. One was a play on dengaroo but instead of Dengar I fly a ghost with manaroo, then use an AP as my imperial filler.

I also thought maybe a stressbot rebel Y with a rail gun misthunter and omega, the goal being to toss stress with both the Y and the mist while outpioleting the opponent with omega

Then I was also thinking Biggs protecting a deck, or some variation.

Or maybe manaroo tossing locks and focus to omega ace for 2-3 crits

Any good ideas? Are there any lists that would just be unbelievably cheesy?

Not enough points to add a third ship but Dash with IG crew and IG88B is a broken good time.

12 points for an academy pilot. But you're right. That is crazy good combo. HLC's for everyone!

Could maybe do that bare bones, but I don't think it would be as strong as a ghostaroo build. I'm still leaning towards a stress bot build. But was also looking at Captain jonus with 2 SYCK and a Y with HLC

Maybe this is obvious, but I'm not familiar with the railgun that you are talking about putting on the Y-Wing? Can you elaborate, please?

Railgun Misthunter is (IIRC) 4-LOM with expose, and experimental interface. Toss a stress on your opponent, attack with a 4-5 die weapon. Add in Zuckuss if you need him to really wreck them up.

For the full effect of the railgun, you want K4 Security Droid as your crew.

You begin with using Advanced Sensors to take a Focus action. You use Experimental Interface to activate Expose. You reveal a green maneuver to clear the stress while also activating K4 Security Droid. Now you have focus, target lock, and +1 die during the combat phase. I usually run this with Zuckuss because you now have 2 extra red dice. I've never heard of railgun 4-LOM before. I can see how you could drop the Advanced Sensors, saving 3 points, since you want the stress so you can pass it off in the end phase.
