Jess/Lowhhrick/Rex/Roark

By gennataos, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I've been churning on Nym so much, I haven't even looked at the Auzituck. I really like @Danath's winning list from the Store Champs thread and wondered if Lowhhrick has a place in that.

  • Adaptability on Jess to match Rex
  • Captured TIE on Rex to Suppress torp scouts
  • Rage/IR is obvious, Rey to do it early to store up focus tokens when Lowhhrick needs to Reinforce

Quite a different flavor without the stress control. Not sure I see the value in Captured TIE, you want Rex shooting and once you do that he loses the title. Lowhhrick would be great for keeping Rex and Roark Alive but the ship you might want to replace is Jess.

Jess is rarely targeted because her rerolls make he crazy to try and kill. Having Lowhhrick would keep those other ships alive longer and that actually sounds really good.

Not enough points though to make it work well. https://geordanr.github.io/xwing/?f=Rebel Alliance&d=v4!s!224::-1:-1:;46:135,-1:-1:-1:;251:-1,-1,-1:-1:-1:;207:-1,21,69:41:-1:&sn=Jess%2FLowhhrick%2FRex%2FRoark&obs=

I agree. I was just starting to plug an Auzituck into existing lists to see how it might fit, preferably without Biggs. Good point on Captured TIE on Rex, I wasn't really thinking it through. I do like that Lowhhrick build, though.

What about moving R3-A2 over to Jess? It lacks the double stress of Braylen, but can at least turn off Expertise and Whisper's ACD.
