My local store is hosting a 100pt episodes 1-6 only tournament. Strictly ONLY ships or pilots/crew that have appearances in episodes 1-6.

I own pretty much every ship in the Rebel/Imperial fleet, and have come up with this as a start point... thoughts/ideas welcome!

Han Solo, YT-1300 (46),
Expertise (4),
C-3PO (3),
Millennium Falcon (Evade Version) (1),
Engine Upgrade (4)

Wedge Antilles, X-Wing (29),
R2-D2 (4),
Expertise (4),
Shield Upgrade (4)

Total 99pts

Initial thoughts - both PS9 at 99points is a good start.

Falcon will always guarantee 2 evades with C3PO and evade action. Expertise should see the majority of shots hitting but can always use Hans ability if that fails lol. Engine upgrade for those times where arc dodging will be better than evading.

Wedge with x3 shields and R2 should be pretty survivable, especially if the Falcon is the target at first. Expertise and a Target Lock should see the majority of his shots hit too.

Criticism and thoughts welcome! OR... what would you do with these restrictions? Thanks

Drop Expertise on Han and give him Predator. I wouldn't use Wedge alone. I would run another large ship or K-Wing. Han looks great. Wedge, eh, not so much.

Hmmh, Predator is good, but Expertise could save me a Focus for the defence phase. For the extra 1 point it's a lot of benefit with Hans ability as back up.

The only other large ship is another Falcon or a YT-2400! But I agree Wedge is a bit squishy.

The issue is, you need to be stressed for Expertise. Han doesn't get stressed too much, since you don't need to K-Turn. Running Big/Small is only effective with certain ships, I don't know how I feel about an X-Wing. What are all the Rebel ships you own?

Whoops I think you have your wires crossed, you don't need to be stressed for Expertise... it's the other way round, Expertise doesn't work if you're stressed!

All of them mate

I'm afraid you have this backwards. The card text reads: "When attacking, if you are not stressed, you may change all of your focus results to hit results."

So sorry. You're right. Thanks for the schooling! XD What ships do you have?

I might consider a 52pts Chewie w/ 2 x TLT Gold Squadron pilots. Lots of ways to build Chewie out even given the tourny restrictions. Here's what I'd probably take ...

Chewbacca — YT-1300	42
Lone Wolf	2
Recon Specialist	3
C-3PO	3
Burnout SLAM	1
Smuggling Compartment	0
Millennium Falcon	1
Ship Total: 52
Gold Squadron Pilot — Y-Wing	18
Twin Laser Turret	6
Ship Total: 24
Gold Squadron Pilot — Y-Wing	18
Twin Laser Turret	6
Ship Total: 24 100 pts.

I've actually already toyed with this Chewbacca / x2 TLT Y-Wing build. I love how tanky Chewbacca is, and the Y-Wings kicking out 2 damage each is brilliant, but I'm not sure how long Chewbacca will last with him only been PS5 and the Y-Wings always shooting last.

This might be fun ...

Pretty janky but have the As take evades to feed Wedge giving him a 5 dice attack and try and do as much damage as possible before Biggs is gone ...
