Defender Dilemma:

By Ro el Pen, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Been running these 2 defender lists. Wanted all feedback possible. Thanks in advance.

Tie SF Back Draft, VI, FCS, Twin ion, Title

Tie Defender Vessery, Crack Shot, X7

Tie Defender Countess, PTL, X7

100 points

Tie SF Back Draft, VI, FCS, Light weight frame, Sensor Cluster, Title.

Tie Defender Glaive, Crack Shot, X7.

Tie Defender Glaive, Crack Shot, X7.

100 points

I like the first one. When people set up across from you and see Countess with x7 you can literally see their heart sink.

I have run a list extremely similar to your first. Only difference is that i don't have MkII engines on Backdraft and i have Juke on Vess instead of Crackshot.

MIght Try:

Tie SF Back Draft, VI, FCS, Light weight frame, Sensor Cluster, Title.

Tie Defender Glaive, wired, X7.

Tie Defender Glaive, wired, X7.

100 points

wired helps with attack & defense with the heavy red speed 1 & 2. Also can help against stress builds like asajj.
