The Specials

By UberMunchkin, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I finally got a play a match last night, my friend came over and ran his Brobots against this:

The Specials

100 points

PILOTS

“Quickdraw” (37)
Special Forces TIE (29), Crack Shot (1), Fire-Control System (2), Cruise Missiles (3), Lightweight Frame (2)

“Backdraft” (35)
Special Forces TIE (27), Veteran Instincts (1), Fire-Control System (2), Cruise Missiles (3), Lightweight Frame (2)

“Double Edge” (28)

I am very happy to report that the elite forces of our Imperial Masters absolutely Kerbstomped the bounty hunting Scum.

I like a similar list:

“Quickdraw”
Special Forces TIE , Unique
Once per round, when you lose a shield token, you may perform a primary weapon attack.
Expertise (4)
Fire-Control System (2)
Pattern Analyzer (2)
Special Ops Training (0)
Lightweight Frame (2)
“Backdraft”
Special Forces TIE , Unique
When attacking a ship inside your auxiliary firing arc, you may add 1 to the result.
Veteran Instincts (1)
Fire-Control System (2)
Pattern Analyzer (2)
Special Ops Training (0)
Lightweight Frame (2)
“Double Edge”
TIE Aggressor
Once per round, after you perform a secondary weapon attack that does not hit, you may perform a attack with a different weapon.
Ruthlessness (3)
Autoblaster Turret (2)
Lightweight Frame (2)

I'm having a hard time liking the Aggressor.

So far I've been gambling on damage output by taking guidance chips instead of LWF. Mostly because I KNOW it will have an effect unlike LWF.
