Hello everyone, I am going on a trip for three weeks and there will be the opportunity to play some X-wing during that time. The challenge is: There might be a tournament involved (hence I should take a squad without proxies) and I have to fit everything in a backpack. Thus: As (physically) small ships as possible, at most two squads, better one with some options.
I enjoy flying the following list:
Quickdraw
-
Swarm Tactics;
Fire-Control System;
Special Ops Training;
Twin Ion Engine Mk. II
34pts
Pure Sabacc
-
Veteran Instincts; Adaptive Ailerons; Lightweight Frame
25pts
Colonel Vessery
-
Tractor beam; Expertise; TIE/D; Twin Ion Engine Mk. II
41pts
Great about the list is, that I can cut one or both Twin Ion Engines for initiative bid. The problem here is, that I do not own the TIE/D title, which pretty much wrecks the whole list. I have been successful with it manly because of the tractor beam / attack an opponent with less agility combo. Another very nice part is that the ships are reasonably small so I can transport them safely.
Other than that I will get the Wave XI ships today, so I thought about flying some sort of rebel junkyard, but I do not have the Rebel-Transporter and I do not own the Ghost expansion, so Bombs in Rebels without Sabine seems to be a big disadvantage, and Rebel Junkyard without R4-D6 seems weird, too, since there usually is not enough room to squeeze in R2-D2.
So the other option would be a scum list. I thought maybe the usual Dengar and another ship? Maybe Nym, or Fenn? The Jumpmaster is quite big for transportation but it might just fit in the box I am going to take.
Here are the expansions I do not own, so all the cards unique to those and ships included are off the table: All epics, A-Wing, Y-Wing, TIE Fighter, Lambda, Decimator, Ghost, T-70 X-Wing, ARC-170.
I hope some of you also enjoy this "tetris" squad building challenge.
