I ran this build at a tournament last Saturday and it did decently well.

Chewbacca (Original) - 51 Points

YT-1300 - 42

Marksmanship - 3

Experimental Interface - 3

Tactician - 2

Millennium Falcon (Evade Version) - 1

Dash Rendar - 49 Points

YT-2400 - 36

"Mangler" Cannon - 4

Outrider - 5

Engine Upgrade - 4

Total = 100 Points

In my first game, it was obliterated by a swarm build. (In my defense, I could not roll something useful through the whole game.) I destroyed one Bandit Squadron Pilot, and lost both ships. This showed me the squad's main weakness - it is hopeless against swarms, especially when you can't roll anything useful.

The other games went fairly well, but the last one showcased the build's power. In my last game, I completely butchered an Aces build (Soontir, Countdown, and Whisper). Dash charged straight through an asteroid field and took Whisper off the board in Round 3. From there, it went downhill as Soontir couldn't evade 7 attack dice and Countdown didn't have enough tokens to do anything useful.

In conclusion, I'd like to ask you what I could do to make this build more effective against swarms.

Interesting build. I really like both ships and have used Chewbacca + Leebo often a few years back. Both dials are very good, so stressing the Falcon each round (Experimental Interface) makes your maneuvers predictable. Swarms usually have low pilot skill, so Predator is a very useful option. I don't know what upgrades you have available, but here is an idea:

Chewbacca (Predator, Gunner, Millenium Falcon title [Evade], Tactical Jammer) - 52 points

Dash (Trick Shot, Mangler Cannon, Recon Specialist, Outrider title) - 48 points

100 points

You could also replace Tactical Jammer + Trick Shot with Veteran Instincts on Dash. The Predator+Gunner combo is always potent, and Recon Specialist on Dash (or any 2+ defense dice ship) makes him survive longer usually.

Here is my Chewie Dash build.

YT hundred (100)

Chewbacca (51) - YT-1300
A Score To Settle (0), C-3PO (3), Bistan (2), Millennium Falcon (1), Smuggling Compartment (0), Black Market Slicer Tools (1), Anti-Pursuit Lasers (2)

I quite like the YTs and try to pair them up every which way.

1. Dash and Chewie 100 pts

Chewbacca, YT1300(42): PTL(3), Ezra Bridger(3), M.Falcon (Evade)(1).

Dash Rendar, Y2400(36): PTL(3), Heavy Laser Cannon(7), Outrider(5).

The idea is to dole out damage with your 360° turrets while getting hit as little as possible. PTL takes care of your reroll capabilities and or defense and in combination with Ezra even improves the odds of taking down the opposition before it takes you down. Great dmg potential, reasonable survivability. This combo does quite well in our local league, although I prefer dual Decis in Tournaments.

2. Rey and Chewie 100 pts

Chewbacca, YT1300(42): PTL(3), Jan Ors(2), M. Falcon (Evade)(1).

Rey, YT1300(42): Finn(5), Captain Rex(2)

Not very sophisticated. Chewie lives longer because of the EVADE, Rey gets that via Jan Ors. I wish I had PTL for Rey as well, but Finn is just too good to miss out on, if your flying is up to par. I am not too sure about Rex, I kind of use him as consolation prize in case I miss.
