intensity is useless on Jan unless you give her vectored thrusters or Engine upgrade

Also this. Swap Intel and Crow for Rey and Vectored Thrusters.

I will see your 9 dice and raise you to 10 (with three points to spare)

Doesn't mean you've read Swarm Leader either.

You can only get 2 additional attack dice per round via Swarm Leader.

So, this is also a 6 (7 at range 1) dice list.

PTL to get TL & Focus?

Swarm Leader does not work that way.

Already has Swarm Leader.

Nine is still the theoretical maximum number of red dice that can be present in any one attack roll.

Ah man

It's like FFG safeguards against total abuse. That's not fair at all.

Wait why is cassian easy to kill at 8 hp and 2 agility but Nora isn't easy to kill at 9 hp and 1 agility? I'm confused.

I don't trust in the survivability of ships with 8 Hitpoints anymore since I have lost a B-Wing in the very first round of combat, once.

The enemy was flying a Scum list and performed focus fire with 3 ships versus 1. This particular ship didn't get to fire a single shot in this game.

That's my biggest fear, regarding this list. It depends too much on one single ship with (only) 8 HP and 1 or 2 green dice, which won't be supported by focus tokens, because you need these tokens for the offensive attack.

Biggs. And a way worse dial and base size.

The U Wing is one of the very few ships were being a large base is actually a huge penalty.

I'm referring to the lists discussed earlier in this thread... Neither had Biggs and the original one wasn't immediately shouted down as 'Nora dies to focus fire' even though she dies as or maybe more easily. Sure I get the u wing is worse than the arc but in the context of silly lists with swarm leader it doesn't seem to matter much.

The list in my the OP was always intended as a theoretical exercise rather than a practical thing - it would be too vulnerable in real play to actually work well in all contexts, though I suspect it would surprise-nuke some things...

Fewer green dice are always better because when those dice gang up they all like to blank or eyeball when you don't have a focus. They are so fickle. If there's only one of them being rolled then he (or she, let's be fair) will be too intimidated to just screw you over right out.

ARC (2), Alliance Overhaul (+1), Norra Wexley ability (+1), Finn (+1), Swarm Leader (+2), Jan Ors (+1) = 8

I don't think you can do it every round? I'm not sure how he's flipping Intensity back down if the Evades are being burned with Swarm Leader.

Can you help me with this? So both Norra and Shara would need two actions. A Target Lock from the prior turn, then Norra a Focus and Shara an Evade.

Correct?

Yes. Thoguh as noted, Shara can get both tokens in one round using Intensity and R7-T1 if need be.

This might actually be a thing now!

Rey with two support ships

Rey gets 3 attack dice + 1 (Finn) + 2 Swarm Leader (Jan & Rex) + 1 Jan Ability = 7 dice (8 at range 1)

Rey (45)
Swarm Leader (3)
Finn (5)
Kanan Jarrus (3)
Millennium Falcon (TFA) (1)

Jan Ors (25)
Intensity (2)
Vectored Thrusters (2)

Captain Rex (14)
