Hi.
whant to add rebel wave 10 to competitive list in my area.
What do you think about such list? Had you expirience with something like it, or other list with rebel TIE?

Looks really interesting.
Yavin system open in Birmingham, England, Rebel player just came 2nd, only non scum in the top 8. Twitch stream was 'firedearth'
Can't remember full list but it was something like:
Ahsoka Tano w/ VI, CT, BMST, SM
Hera w/ C3PO, TLT, AC, Navigator
Zeb (shuttle) with Phantom title
Hera and Ahsoka had a couple of other mods perhaps but I can't place them.
Your 23 point tie fighter will pop quickly (my experience with 15 and 19 point tie fighters there). I think ahsoka should stick with captured tie and less offensive shenanigans other than maybe a sneaky Sabine crew + bomb. I could be wrong though.
I would be inclined to agree. Keep Ahsoka cheap and keep her hiding, the big thing she brings to the list is the action economy that Miranda lacks to some extent. Also because she triggers at PS12, she allows both ships to get TLs on high PS aces that they might struggle to acquire otherwise. I am also a big fan of homing missiles on Miranda because of their strength against /x7 Defenders and the like.
One last thing I would strive for in a list including Ahsoka is to try and bring it in at 99 points. That one point bid is important when facing Parattanni because if Ventress triggers before Ahsoka, she can slap a Stress token on the ship you wanted to feed a free action and thus block them.
With all that in mind, here is my take on this concept.
42 Miranda (29), TLT (6), Homing Missile (5), EMs (2), Chips (0), Chopper (0)
38 Norra (29), R2-D2 (4), PTL (3), AO (0), Tail Gunner (2)
19 Ahsoka (17), VI (1), Captured Tie (1)
99 Total
She only has to hide so much though as can only be attacked by PS9 and above if running VI but I've been looking at similar with Jake and Poe with Ahsoka

I meant hiding using the Capture Tie upgrade. As soon as she shoots, she loses that.
One of the builds above had Hotshot Copilot on Ahsoka. I am not saying that is bad (a cheap PS9 support ship is a great place for this crew) just that I felt Ahsoka's action economy offered more to Miranda and Norra than token stripping would. Now if you have some ships with Juke or Sensor Jammer then I think a HSCP build of Ahsoka would have a lot of potential.

I didn't spot the hot-shot co-pilot on the original post, so I get it now. It's tempting to add BMST to her and Rey crew so that can use that as an action and still pass off focus for extra actions (which I didn't realise she can apparently use on herself too) but then you're left with the issue that it's and extra 4 points and I'd rather have the initiative bid or points used elsewhere.
On a PS9 list I want at least a couple spare points to be sure to move after Fenn and keeping Ahsoka as an action feed only seesm the best place to do it (I had been running a PS10 Corran, Poe and Airen list where this was basically Airen's job and any damage he did was a bonus. I think Ahsoka would fill this role so much better
