I think you need more fighters. Drop wing commander, gallant haven and swap the MC30 scout to a torp version. Then add Biggs who will make the X-Wings about as resilient as GH does but they are now mobile.

Have you thought of dropping a flotilla for more fighters. An X wing, rogue squadron, Wedge or Dutch could be fun. admonition maybe with a cheap A-Wing or Z95.

Watch out for opening Salvo with only 3 ships equipped with any guns. Station assault or most wanted would be better.

So taking your advice Mad Cat how does this look?

1 Wedge Antilles ( 19 points)

Drop Keyan for Norra. She will hit as hard as Keyan against squads, can keep up with everyone else, and provides a small power boost to all your bombers to make up for losing that second black bomber die.

Really, BCC made Keyan a harder sell

So made some further tweaks

Like where its at right now but always open to critiques

Would it be worth it to drop Gold Sq to change to Sato?

cheers

It's a good list, the only thing I would do is try to get your fighters up to eight to give you that extra deployment, but the only thing that you could drop flight controllers, with you 1 piont bid this gives you the 7 points needed for a head hunter.

I love Doddona for these lists, no way I would replace him with Sato.

I would drop Luke to a regular X-wing and this will get you 7 for a Z95 and with so many escort fighters around it should get 3+ turns of combat.

I'm not keen on Sato. He would need a few more upgrades to make the ships benefit more from his ability and that would eat into your fighter force.

So played it last night in prep for tourny and I was completely unimpressed by the Neb, rejigged the list, upped the fighters to 8 maybe this will work maybe not, thanks for the continued input, gonna try this and compare to the original before I make a final determination

And then there is a second list, only 7 fighters but I think I like the survivability of it a little better, maybe a little less punch though

cheers

With Dodonna I am suprised you took Wedge over Luke.

I have found that Luke gets uber focussed and in my area having wedge as anti squadron has proven more beneficial..... I like Luke as well and if I had the points I would have the trinity in there!
