Which bombs on Miranda with Dash?

By fryxharry, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi all

I've been flying Dash and Miranda for the last two months with some success and I'm really loving the list. Here's how I'm flying it right now:

Miranda:

- Advanced Slam

- TLT

- Connor Nets

- Seismic Charges

- Extra Munition

- Sabine

Dash:

- Outrider

- HLC

- Rey

- Lone Wolf

- Smuggling Compartments

- Burnout Slam

This comes in at 100 points. What I'm still not sure about is which bombs to take. I tried Connor/Ion but I wasn't overwhelmed by the times I ioned a ship. Clusters are nice for the damage potential, but usually you hit people with 2 tokens which is 3 damage with sabine on average. Connor Nets give you 2 damage with sabine plus ion plus loss of actions. Also, I find it much easier to hit people with it compared to clusters.

I've also been thinking about Thermals because stress is nice to have these days. But I'd have to get rid of burnout slam, which can really save your bacon sometimes..

What are your thoughts?

You could also get Thermals by trading Sabine for Bombardier. You lose auto damage, but you gain placement options.

I think you have to consider what ion bombs will do for you beyond the stats. They seem like they could really aid in protecting Dash's donut hole. They can also set up connor nets and opportunities to ion ships off the board.

The list looks quite fine from my point of view , though I would also gladly swap seismic for ion. The control is just too good. Otherwise you could try to run rigged cargo shute if you have it. Seems like it helps protecting you as well.

I would exchange seismic for ion bombs without a second thought. Control is way better than 1 damage.


I would also consider exchanging connor net for cluster mines - 1 damage and control for up to 6 damage (potentially destroying a ship). I would do it, but it also depends on your playing style.

Is Lone Wolf and slam paying off? If not consider PTL on Dash
