Make the T-65 great again.

By Clancampbell, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Another thread has set me on a mission. I am going to make a list of t-65s to take to a local tournament next week. Maybe it's a suicide mission but I'm going to play balls out. So help me make the best list I can and let's put the x-wing back in x-wing!

My list (currently)

Wedge w\ crack shot, integrated astro, r2 unit, torps.

Luke w\ crack shot, integrated astro, r2 unit, torps.

Biggs w/ integrated astro r2 unit, torps.

Good? Bad? Indifferent?

Wes is the strongest X-Wing on his ability alone. Wedge and Expertise is hilarious. Luke and R2-D2 likes shield upgrade more than integrated, but only if you have the points. Don't underestimate Hobbie or Porkens. Tarn is secretly a beast with the TL astromechs. The generics are a bit lacking but they like flying with Garven.

Get rid of the torps and invest in better astromechs. Consider going with 4 ships. Here is what I would do:

Biggs Darklighter (25)
R4-D6 (1)
Integrated Astromech (0)

Tarn Mison (23)
M9-G8 (3)
Integrated Astromech (0)

Luke Skywalker (28)
Crack Shot (1)
R2-D2 (4)
Integrated Astromech (0)

Prototype Pilot (17)
Chardaan Refit (-2)

Total: 100

The prototype is there for blocking, Tarn starts the game by locking Biggs to give him more of a bite while Luke always target locks himself as long as Biggs is up. Luke could also be another of the high value pilots who have abilities that do things agressively.
