Can I get feedback on Brobots?

By Waffle Iron, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I don't have these two ships yet, but was wondering about this set up:

IG-88B (36)
Determination (1)
Fire-Control System (2)
Heavy Laser Cannon (7)
Burnout SLAM (1)
Autothrusters (2)
IG-2000 (0)

IG-88C (36)
Expert Handling (2)
Advanced Sensors (3)
Autoblaster (5)
Tractor Beam (1)
Dead Man's Switch (2)
Anti-Pursuit Lasers (2)
IG-2000 (0)

Total: 100

Basic idea is to keep "B" at range 3, and "C" at range 1

I like your strategy and your build, but I think you can make it a lot better with a few changes.

Loose Burnout slam its not worth it and you get no actions or shoots, when you have slammed. You can use boost at no points, get a free evade and shoot.
At PS 6 Anti-pursuit Lasers is next to worthless, so loose them
Determination is very circumstantial - often not worth the points.
Dead Mans Switch is 2 points for mabey one damage - again circumstantial and to often not worth the points.

PTL on an Agressor is fantastic, because agressors have so many grenn maneuvers and you get a free evade, when you boost from the 88C, so you want to boost, but still be able to take focus or target lock.
Autothrusters is really good against things like TLT and when you only got two ships - you have to protect them.
Inertial Dampners is also good, when trying to keep at range one.

So here is my suggestion for changing your build, while still keeping the spirit of the build.

IG-88B (36)
Push the Limit (3)
Fire-Control System (2)
Heavy Laser Cannon (7)
Autothrusters (2)
IG-2000 (0)

IG-88C (36)
Expert Handling (2)
Advanced Sensors (3)
Autoblaster (5)
Tractor Beam (1)
Inertial Dampners (1)
Autothrusters (2)
IG-2000 (0)

Total: 100

Yeah, that's really good.

What about keeping the Anti-Pursuit, and switching the advanced sensors to Enhanced Scopes? I wouldn't need the Inertial Dampner nearly as much, so that'd trim 3 points off. I could put Rigged Cargo Chutes on "B" and Glitterstim on "C"?

Even if not, your list is great.
