so after seeing some lists and finding my weaknesses in several other lists, i came up with this combo, however i am not sure if this is the best version of this list, would burnout slam be better on chewey? or just the reviving measures, and use him to bump/kite while raging things down? or should i just revamp in general again? i think the ol' wookie might be worth taking for a spin.

I would consider giving Miranda Seismic Charges or Ion Bombs instead of the Proxies, it diversifies her bombing threat and they are very good at her high PS.

Chewie lacks the focus to make Countermeasures matter, furthermore I don't think they are anywhere near as good on a one agility ships as on a two agility ship. My (boring, I know) recommendation would be Engine Upgrade, honestly. Though Burnout SLAM is the more powerful one trick version of that, so it isn't the worst choice.

The lists doesn't look too mindblowingly good, but I think you should give it a try. It certainly doesn't look terrible either.

revised with BS on chewy and Ion as well on miranda title i added cuz i had 2 points... might be better to keep initiative bid tho at 2 points?

While I don't quite see when you would Evade (maybe with an incoming Kylo-Blinded Pilot) I also don't really see a need for an initiative bid here, so you might as well have the title.

I'm pretty sure you're referring to the Evade from Millenium Falcon title. Chewie is immune to Blinded Pilot. Any player that puts "I'll Show You the Dark Side" on old Chewie isn't paying attention.

I would drop Proximity Mines. If you can fit Homing Missiles, it gives Miranda an tool against token stacks.

Oooh, I totaly forgot about that! Missiles on Miranda sound like a good plan, diversifies the type of threat she offers.

With kannan on board, would the New MF title (Slope version) be more useful? I like the evade version, but if you are using Rage consistantly you won't be evading much, probably won't slope often either, but might be a nice maneuver option occasionally, maybe the turn after a Slam?
