Got pounded at a local tourney recently. So having to rethink my squad list as I think the meta has shifted somewhat in my area. A lotta 2/3 ship lists
So until I buy a few more ships looking to give this a whirl.
biggs darklighter
r4-d6
integrated
hobbie klivian
r3-a2
integrated
tarn mison
r7
integrated
rookie
r2
integrated
any improvements besides jess?
wanna keep em t-65 old school
This is just me talking, but I'd swap .Biggs out for someone else. Biggs is best when drawing fire of someone important but all your ships are pretty much the same. Have you thought about Garven?
I saw a really good list at a tournament the other day. Three rookie x-wings with R2 and IA with Braylen's ARC-170 with Vectored thrusters, gunner, overhaul and r3-a2.
Biggs cancelling down to 2 x hits is powerful though.
bar an ordnance list people have to shoot him, as otherwise hobbie will just evaporate in the first engagement
I'm not a fan of R4-D6. I think a humble R2 would be better.
I like this list. Hobbie with R3-A2 is cool. You take TL as your action, declare target and give stress with stress bot, shoot and then use TL to shed stress you picked up from R3-A2.
R4-D6 doesn't work on crits which sadly limits his usefulness.

Any of the other 1 point droids don't either.
Biggs at 3 hull can survive 5 hits and a crit with R4D6 and integrated guaranteed.
I do love me some r2, just wish I didn't have to buy more y-wings.
will give the list a go at league tonight and let y'all know.

R2 cards used to be cheap on eBay. But yeah, my Y wing collection is bigger than it needs to be.
I'd swap hobbie with Jess Pava/R4-D6/Integrated/Draw their Fire. You can REALLY keep biggs tanky if he's also not taking crits (Jess can, she's fine, you want Tarn as the last ship anyway)
Abit late. But went 2-1 at league.
game one against TLT thug, Asaj and old terouch.
yeah this guy hasn't faced 4 x xwings before. Pretty much mauled Asaj r2, handed out stress then blocked terouch and wiped him. TLT got dealt with r3 then cleaned up Asaj. Only lost Biggs.
lost game 2 to lieutenant dormitz, omega leader and inquisitor.
Couldnt pin the inquisitor and only got half points for shuttle.
a valuable game as showed that high ps arc dodgers can solo this list if flown well. As the guy is a pervious regional winner so had no hope there.
game 3 against bodhi, Nora and jan ors. Guy came in super aggressive with bodhi and got 4 x xwing a at R1, so yeah he died pretty quick. Then cleaned up jan, Nora held on for awhile and took out Biggs but got corned and hammered by the remaining 3.
so overall pretty happy with the result. Granted I think the list caught some people off guard never having played against tarn mison and stress hobbie klivian, although I think it has the tools to punish attani lists, big ships and swarms. I think if I want it to be competitive though I will need to address arc dodgers either with a high ps xwing or TLT y-wing.
