This is from another thread. Apparently it went 6-0 at a regional in Swiss rounds (or something like that)

Poe (PS8) w/ Adaptability, R5-P9, Pattern Analyzer, AT

Nien w/ Snap Shot, R3-A2, Black One, Integrated

Jess w/ Snap Shot, R2-D6, Integrated

I love my T-70s and I'm always glad to see hem do well. I can't help but tweak it a bit.

Since the goal is to get to range 1 and stay there, I'm tempted to drop AT from Poe to either upgrade him to PS9 Poe or give him Snap shot too. Also I think dropping B1 on Nien in favor of primed thrusters.

What do you guys think?

i would keep the B1 title on nien, but not sold on the Snap on Jess, but thats more because i havent seen much success with SS, likely more bad dice rolls than anything. I do like Niens' loadout, might change poe a little tho... hard to say, but i like the idea of AStS over Adaptability...but i see the merits in both...

I've been running my own variation on this:

Poe (PS8) w/ Veteran Instincts, R5-P9, Pattern Analyzer, AT

Nien w/ Snap Shot, R3-A2, Integrated

Jess w/ M9-G8, Integrated

Poe gets to be PS10, putting him above the threat of say, Whisper and Fenn Rau, without the need for an initiative bid. Snapshot Nien with Stressbot can really put in work. I usually use Jess' target lock on Poe since he's always taking a focus. A reroll helps his damage output.

AT on Poe because turrets will ruin the entire list otherwise.

No title on Nien because I don't want to boost away from Jess.

All 3 are flown in close formation for as long as I can. They're a strong joust list (Though not the strongest so you may need to split them up for some encounters). Poe and Nien can get focuses after K-turning / T-rolling (Depending on Nien's positioning) and Jess gets effectively a target lock.

Really makes a tough first target dilemma. Jess, the heaviest hitter/Poe buffer, Nien the Stress-giver or Poe who will be a big late game threat with his regen.

I'm not saying you have to use this but hopefully there's some points to consider. Hope this helps!

Edit: Jess can also lock onto Nien to give his Snapshot a reroll if needed.

ya i like that list, much better imho!
