Defendercide

By Kristjan, in X-Wing Squad Lists

This is a list I'm hoping to try once the Rogue One ships drop this week.

Backdraft Tie S/F w swarm leader, FCS, light frame 34

2 x Sinar Test Pilot TAP w title, homing missiles, guidance chips 44

22 points left could take another missile TAP, wired zeta leader, bomber or perhaps a Tie Striker.

Thoughts?

I like the list. Thinking of trying it out with a scimitar w/ shuttle, Vader, and Fleet Officer to get those missiles full mods.

I definitely like the 2 TAPs to fuel Swam Leader. Here is my take, less aggressive TAPs but a strong RAC to drop the reds:

RAC Tap

Rear Admiral Chiraneau (46)
Swarm Leader (3)
Gunner (5)
Hotshot Co-pilot (4)
Engine Upgrade (4)

Sienar Test Pilot (16)
Autothrusters (2)
TIE/v1 (1)

Sienar Test Pilot (16)
Autothrusters (2)
TIE/v1 (1)

Total: 100

In brief testing I found, even without changing the eyeball to a crit, and without adding the evade reds I was still hitting with RAC and not triggering gunner. I may swap it for Kylo and call it good. That would give me the two points for the title to bump and boost past.

Striker - especially Countdown. A real threat there IMHO. He can't be ignored and can tank damage before he explodes. He's a great counter to Fenn Rau.

I think if you want to go with RAC, I would take 3 Tie L/N, maybe Wampa and 2 Academys.
