Triple Eights Thoughts

By Gold_SquadronPilot, in X-Wing Squad Lists

How is my list?

Rebel Triple Eights (100)

Poe Dameron (ps8) (36) - T-70 X-Wing
Push The Limit (3), BB-8 (2)

Horton Salm (32) - Y-Wing
Dorsal Turret (3), R2-D2 (4)

Luke Skywalker (32) - X-Wing
Crack Shot (1), R5-D8 (3)

I think that Horton is the weak link in this, Dutch's ability to hand off TL would be more valuable. Also Horton's ability and Dorsal Turret sort of clash since he only re-rolls dice at 2-3, and Dorsal turret rolls the most dice at Range 1.

If you went with Dutch you could do;

Dutch Vander - Blaster Turret, R2D2 - 31p, leaving you with 99 points - either to win initiative bid or to buy a 1-cost mod or tech/title on Poe.

Unfortunately i dont have blaster turret, but i will change salm for vander
