Countdown and Captain Yorr...

By sinclair5150, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Seeing a lot of Imperial lists doing well in Store Championships have me wanting to do something with the Palp aces archetype. Has anyone tried converting the Mynock Special to use Countdown instead of Omega Leader. OL is great but sometimes just want to change things up, plus adding another red dice can be effective. With Yorr close he could pull the Countdown ability stress enabling Countdown to do his ability more than once a turn if needed. Also added the ION projector to Yorr for some control/deterant. Thoughts?

Whisper w/FCS, Adv. Cloak, Rebel Captive, VI

Countdown w/Lightweight Frame, with or without title

Cap. Yorr, w/Palpatine, Col. detector, and ION projector

98pts.

Especially if oyu're bringing Yorr, Targetting Computer on Countdown will be a big boon. He desperately wants offensive rerolls and his defences are much less important when he's got Yorr to keep his ability functioning.

I'd put Electronic Baffles on Yorr though.
