Fun T-65 List...where should the last 4 pts go?

By clanofwolves, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I am planing to play a few fun games this weekend and wanted to mix up my X-Wing list a bit. I've settled on my pilots and startegy, but I need to flush it out and fill it to 100.

This is what I think it'll mostly be....Any ideas?

Tarn Mison (23), M9-G8 (3)

Luke Skywalker (28), R2-D2 (4), Vectored Thrusters (2), Lone Wolf (2)

Wedge Antilles (29), R7-T1 (3), Opportunist (4)

Total 96

I am not sold on opportunist on Wedge to be honest: He shoots first so the chance of the enemy having tokens is very high.
Predator is a more reliable way of getting damage through.. Or even expertise! ;-)

Personally I would not fly Tarn Mison with this list. He is going to be the last ship on the board for sure. Both luke and wedge are higher priority, shutting down Tarn Mison's ability. I get that M9-G8 is annoying, but never more than luke or wedge.

Lonewolf luke is an extremely tanky late game ship, but the trick is carrying him into the late game. I know it is not as sexy as Tarn Mison is, Biggs is probably better for your setup.

Wedge Antilles (29)
Expertise (4)
R2-D2 (4)
Integrated Astromech (0)

Luke Skywalker (28)
Lone Wolf (2)
R5-P9 (3)
Vectored Thrusters (2)

Biggs Darklighter (25)
M9-G8 (3)
Integrated Astromech (0)

Total: 100

I know it isnt exactly the same pilot, but it is close enough.

But if you are deadset on tarn mison, I would go with the same build, just replacing biggs with tarn and giving wedge vectored thrusters.
It gives you three ships that are annoying in the end game: 2 regen ships (Luke being the tankiest, and wedge being the hardest hitter) and a weird 'I reroll your attack and shoot you back with full modifiers' ship.

The Wedge build is you weakest point. PTL, bb8 and integrated is cheaper and arguably stronger. Then give Tarn a torp to give your oponent a reason to target him.

Thx! I'll give that switch a go!
