Is this what will be the hot OP after g4h? (Guri, Leechos, Teroch, and Manaroo)

By gryffindorhouse, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I know that g4h isn't even out yet, but there's been plenty of theorycrafting, and I haven't seen this list proposed.

Here is the list (I call it "All The Focus!")

Guri

Attanni

Mk2

Kaa'to Leechos

Attanni

Old Teroch

Attanni

Concord

Manaroo

Attanni

It is flown sort of like parrattanni, but even more focus.

Something fun might also be what I like to call Gurittani:

Guri (30): AM (1) Mk.II (-3)

AsaJj Ventress (37): AM (1) LR (2)

Fenn Rau (28): AM (1) AT (2) CDP (1)

My only fear is that Attani might be FAQed to 2 ships only...

I was not actually thinking as a for fun list, I meant as the new hot OP list.

Edited title to be clearer.

As for OP.... Not sure... Guri and Teroch have no Autothrusters, which will makes them softer, even though teroch's ability synergies more with the title, AT makes a ton of difference. Then you have Kaa'to, which with the amount of dice on the table might die... well... quickly...

Just my take, but would have to play to really know.

I'm just going to be happy that I can finally use my vipers again! That being said....if you really want ALL the focus you should swap something for Palob.

No, this list will not be overpowered. The pilots together synergize well with Attanni Mindlink, but there's a problem; the only thing it has going for it is the innate abilities of each pilot and the capabilities of each ship. The ships themselves are skinny on upgrades, and none of them have terribly high Pilot skill. This means you won't be much better off than generics; a little, but not much. And given the fragility of pretty much all of them (Manaroo being the only exception), it'll be an uphill fight to keep them all on the board.

Having said that, I do think this is an interesting list. It's simple, bare-bones, and probably quite a bit of fun to fly!

You could also think about dropping Manaroo down to a scout for two extra points that could be used for Autothrusters on Old Teroch or upgrade him to Fenn. I prefer my JM5K at PS 3 instead of 4, especially if it will be used as a blocker.

So, if I switched Teroch for Palob, then do I add TLT, or do I add ICT, or even BT, because there is no shortage of focus, or even synced, and pay more attention to arc?

OK, like this?

Manaroo

Am

Leechos

Am

Guri

At

Am

Mk2

Palob

Bmst

St

Am

I'm about to try it out.

That is a much more effective list. This also has the side effect of letting Manaroo select a target before passing it off to Palob for his turret. It'll need to fly close, but it certainly has potential!
