Ive never really flown a Rebel Stress list but I came up with this:

Cassian Andor-

Wired

Inspiring Recruit

Tac Jammer

FCS

Hera

Title

Eaden Vrill-

TBC

Rey

Braylen Stramm-

R3-A2

Gunner

Title

The one thing I have really liked in the games that I've played is the ability to park Cassian in a corner with Stramm behind and just throw out 3D FCS Wired attacks and 2 shot double Stress w/ Gunner while just repeating Andors zero stop and a 1 green with Stramm to clear 2 Stress every turn. It's been fun. Thoughts?

Looks not bad. However I would try to make the ship with the gunner shoot first. So you can strip tokens first and maximize the probability for the R3-A2/gunner double stress combo. Probably with swarm tactics on Cassian?

What is TBC?
And what do you do with Eaden while they hang in the corner? And what do you do if the enemy approaches from both sides?
Otherwise a fun list that enables stress a bit more than usual. Why Braylen over a Gray Squadrom Pilot though?

A Y-wing would enable you with guranteed double stress (if you phase a 0 or 1 agility list, you only get the one stress), actual potential for damage, and it goes much better with Cassians ability, since Braylen already sheds stress easily.

A fun new way to play the Eaden/Stress list though.

I think you have overdosed on Stress mitigation. Braylen, Casian and Inspiring Recruit all allow double stress removal but only R3-A2 will actually be stressing you.

A few points you could spend on a little more offensive punch perhaps?

TBC= Tractor Beam Cannon, sorry.

I usually have Eaden come from the opposite side of the corner the other two set up in and then swoop in once some stress is dished out so he has a 3D primary or there is a good target of opportunity for his TBC in which case I'll come in more slowly and try to stay at range three.

If I do it right vs a double sided approach the U and Arc arcs will cover almost all the area from the map edge towards the middle. What's left is covered by Eaden coming in.

I considered a Y-Wing but I found if and when the U Wing dies that rear arc on the ARC is very handy. I don't have to turn around to get shots on a pursuing ship. That's won me games so I've stuck with the ARC.

I could drop to a Gray ARC. I chose Stramm because a green maneuver when bumping the U Wing plus the roll can relieve 2 stress (which is redundant to inspiring recruit and I'm rethinking that) but I do like having the ability to remove two stress which leaves the option to fly away with actions when needed.

You are correct and that was more a symptom of wanting that EPT for the U Wing and allowing him to peel stress from Stramm or Eaden. But you are right and it definitely bears consideration on which U Wing and which crew I use for that second slot. Thanks.
