Heavy syckness

By Pads1982, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Not played them much and only have 2, has this list got legs?

Alpha sickness (100)

Inaldra (25) - M3-A "Scyk" Interceptor
Attanni Mindlink (1), "Heavy Scyk" Interceptor (2), Heavy Laser Cannon (7)

Quinn Jast (25) - M3-A "Scyk" Interceptor
Attanni Mindlink (1), "Heavy Scyk" Interceptor (2), Guidance Chips (0), Proton Torpedoes (4)

Cartel Spacer (20) - M3-A "Scyk" Interceptor
"Heavy Scyk" Interceptor (2), "Mangler" Cannon (4)

Serissu (30) - M3-A "Scyk" Interceptor
Attanni Mindlink (1), "Heavy Scyk" Interceptor (2), Heavy Laser Cannon (7)

I'm looking at Inaldra as well, just being that 2 points less than a TPV and having the EPT slot makes things a bit more interesting.

Firing later in the round, the Mangler has a good chance of putting a crit on someone's hull. All Scyks can take an evade action, and Kaa'to will feed them focus through the link, and TL's when he fires the tracers. Nasty alpha strike, plus they can all fly independently and wreck individually. Lower PS might be a hindrance, but also being able to set up blocks on higher PS pilots means they can swarm and punish effectively. Regen is a beautiful bonus that allows them to survive a lot longer with the token stacking and regen ability.

I'd love to see more of these on the table.
