I've been playing around with Swarm Leader trying to get a reasonably fun and mildly effective list going with A wings (because they look cool)
Primarily, I've been trying to get as many red dice as possible on an A wing list.
I know Rey and the Falcon can get up to 8 red dice but I thought rolling (up to) 6 with an A-wing would be sorta fun just to see the look on my friends face.
(This list won't stand up to Triple Defenders but that's not the point)
The tactic is that Jan in the HWK puts an asteroid between herself and the opponent before plinking off some tokens with two x four red dice TLT attacks at PS8 (trick shot works with secondary weapons as far as I can see)
Swarm Tactic chaining allows both GSPs to attack at PS7 with between two to four reds (range plus Jan if desired?) with evade powered Juke. Finally, Jake takes the evade tokens with Swarm Leader plus the extra dice from Jan to roll five or six red dice (prob with Focus).
Then everything falls apart after the bad guys actually shoot back!
