Biggs, Rex, Thane, and Hog

By 4fox100, in X-Wing Squad Lists

First of all i am not normally a Rebel player (unless it is bombing Ks). But after seeing Paul Heaver fly a Hog, Biggs, Miranda list at Naboo i gigured i would give them a try.

Biggs

R4-D6

IA

Captain Rex

Gold Sq. Pilot

R3-A2

TLT

Title

Thane

Plasma Torps

M9-G8

Chimps

Tail Gunner

Title

100 points

The idea is to use Rex + Thane to make killing biggs a pain while the Hog shuts down the enemy's actions. And with Thane's ability switching and aquuring locks shouldn't be a problem.

As always critique is welcome.

Thane might do more with Weapons Engineer instead of Plasmas/Chimps and Tail Gunner...2 target locks are very flexible with G8.

Yup, Thane wants WE to abuse M9-G8. You can spend the last 2 points to give him Vectored Thrusters which will give him even more options in the combat phase. A great trick is to block a higher PS enemy ship. They bump you so can't shoot at you. When something shoots at Biggs, you can then BR backwards allowing you to shoot them in the face. :D
