I have a store championship coming up soon and was hoping to get some C&C on these lists I'm trying to decide on taking. They're all very similar.

I can honestly say that I hate all of these.

... And only mostly because I fly Imperials.

i think that all of this lists, are easy to counter, selssfnes in the HWK, doest convince me , maybe in the wooki would be better, and if you have a strong defense (wookie and biggs) you need something more agresive, maybe an arc or and ace, this is my opinion. if i have to choose a list i chose de 2nd VCX and a wookie con selfness

I know alpha strikes are always an issue with Biggs. I was thinking selflessness on the hawk would allow Biggs to last longer. Which would give the auzituck plenty of time to throw out dice. 5 dice attacks + focus + re-rolls to begin with, and as the damage comes off from Choppa he'll eventually get 6 dice attacks + focus + re-rolls. I thought that was aggressive enough with the TLT cleaning up the leftovers? :)

Of the lists you have put here, I think I like list 2 the most. Your lothal is more 'complete', dishes more damage, and you can bump the enemy and still shoot while they screw around with biggs.

I am personally not convinced by Wulffwarro, his minimum build (rage/inspiring recruit) is 32 points for 9 hp, 1 agility and 3 attack dice.
His ability doesn't activate before he is halfway into his grave, literally. And that goes fast after he gets it.

Personally I would rather play with an ARC like Stress braylen (also 32 poins), or do Biggs, Kanan (with rey/jan) and thane with jynn erso.

But if you are deadset on the layout, take list 2.

I wonder why I've never seen Zeb crew on a VCX backed by Biggs. We have some players who do Biggs & Kanan, and Zeb seems like a pretty solid answer to the only way I've ever had any success vs the list... but smashing into the VCX so it can't shoot me, while I take shots at Biggs.

Becaus most people that play Kanan/Biggs do TLT's and the shuttle. The also throw Rey/recon spec to get the most out of the Kanan ability. The goal of that list isn't to bump, but to blow up stuff before it gets close.

That's probably it, just too high a premium for better crew. Makes sense.

I ran Kanan/Biggs at the Hoth open, and that was exactly the case. Anything close was bad for me. Yes 5 dice if they are in arc, but I couldn't get the 2nd TLT shots. So, either I was changing targets, or only taking 1 shot.

Interesting trio of ships. Maybe this variant too:

-Lowhhrick (Push the Limit, Breach Specialist)

-Biggs (R4-D6, Integrated Astromech)

-Lothal Rebel (Fire-Control System, Autoblaster Turret, Han Solo, Hera Syndulla)

I'm honestly in love with the idea of Wulfy with Rage, EI, and Double IR. Reinforce, and a fully modified attack? Yes please!! That being said, he can't turn around. At all. So Kanan crew needs to be there somewhere to help him. However, I'd fly him much more aggressively. Ditch Biggs and bring in some heavier guns. If you want the Biggs route, go Biggs or go home:

Biggs w/R2-D2 and IA

Lohrick w/ Jyn, Jan, EI, Predator

Rex w/ Title, Chewie, Shield Upgrade

Just don't expect to kill much hahaha

Fair call, stats wise I have no problem paying 32pts for. I can see the problem with the ability however, I thought it would be good as a end game game ability. But I suppose paying all those points for something you can't use the whole game is a bit of a sink.

Another option may be for me to down grade to a liberator? Lower PS, but mostly the same attack output but 4pts less? Would be able to afford kanan as crew then to open the dial more.

Good point here. Can always get a stresshog for the same cost as Biggs. Or an attack shuttle and TLT on the VCX to get some major fire power. But at that point it might be best just to go Kanan/Biggs combo...? :|
