Not bad, but it's way over the $101 USD limit. Ships must be priced at FFG's declared MSRP, as shown on their main X-wing page product list. Your squad is hovering somewhere just below $140.

One of the cheapest way to get into the game with a good squad that is relatively easy.

Core Set = $39.95

Imp Vets = $29.95

Tie Defender = $14.95

TOTAL = $84.85

Tomax Bren (24)
Crack Shot (1)
Ion Pulse Missiles (3)
Proximity Mines (3)
Long-Range Scanners (0)

Countess Ryad (34)
Predator (3)
TIE/x7 (-2)

Colonel Vessery (35)
Determination (1)
TIE/x7 (-2)

Total: 100

I just bought the U-Wing (because I love it) and another T70 X-Wing (because I like multiples of the same ship) and I've had fun with it.

Have no idea if it's competitive (I assume not!) but it's fun and characterful to play with. Feels like an escort mission or something.

Buy: FA Core Set ($39.95), U-Wing ($29.95), T70 X-Wing ($14.95) = $84.85

Cassian Andor (27)
Cool Hand (1)
Jyn Erso (2)
Stealth Device (3)

Poe Dameron (31)
BB-8 (2)
Integrated Astromech (0)

Ello Asty (30)
Expertise (4)

There are some synergies with Cassian/Jyn handing out focus and stress reduction for Poe, while Expertise works on Ello because he rarely gets stressed and can work alone.

I need to work on the exact role for Cassian in fighting though, particularly against small fast ships who he struggles to get a bead on.

Biggest lesson is I'm in love with Ello because of his wreckless flying style. Pulling mad talon rolls and loving it!

Fair point I do seem to have bust there. Had a rethink and got this.

Just under 105 USD. Not quite, but close lol. I could drop the punisher and use 2 tie fo instead of deathfire.

just under 85 now. Lost the ion engines, swapped ion cannon for tractor beam, replaced deathfire with 2 epsilon fo's.
