First post first list.

By Dragoon65, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi everyone! This is a list I am toying with and am contemplating. Trying to have a target for things to buy rather than just one of everything so tell me what you think and how I should change this.

HWK-290: · Kyle Katarn (21) Blaster Turret (4) · Jan Ors (2) · Moldy Crow (3)

B-Wing: · Keyan Farlander (29) Push The Limit (3) B-Wing/E2 (1) Recon Specialist (3)

ARC-170: · Norra Wexley (29) Push The Limit (3) · BB-8 (2) Alliance Overhaul (0)

-- TOTAL ------- 100/100p. --

So the first few turns just build up some focus on the crow and fly in slow.

Once we get in range we can do some fun stuff.

Keyan can fly, target lock, push for focus + an evade or two focus, also gets stressed, uses stress during attack, saves focus and evade for defense.

Norra wants to pull BB-8 shenanigans where she barrel rolls, then pushes for a target lock, and green maneuvers to clear stress. She is more reliant on the Crow to provide her focus or evade whatever the need may be.

It's my first list and I am willing to pick up stuff but as it stands all I would need from here is the HWK and ARC.

Looks as if you are doing it right. What sort of environment will you be playing in? Hanging out for some laid back type matches?

Play it, have fun. You will see what works and what doesn't.

Some quick fixes, I wouldnt go recon spec on Farlander. Once Katarn gets dropped, then Farlander just has two focus tokens for defense, and 3/4 of the time he wont need either. Swap recon spec on Katarn, and Jan Ors on Farlander. Now you have the same effect, Farlander can end with a focus from Katarn passing it to him if needed, and Farlander turns his own focus into evade (which he can also do once Katarn is gone since he doesnt need his focus anyways). Recon Spec also helps Katarn build up focus on Moldy crow which he will need for Blaster Turret

@wurms Oh I didn't realize the Jan Ors crew card could affect the ship she is riding in. I mean I guess it does just say a friendly ship within range one to three, and I guess the ship she is riding on fits that account haha. Thanks for that tip.

@Velvetelvis Yeah its a real casual group. One guy like to run a pretty heavy meta list but its fun for him so I wont fault him for that.

Your own ship can be a friendly ship. So if a card says "choose a friendly ship" you can choose your own. But, if the card says "choose ANOTHER friendly ship" then you cannot select your own ship.
