Is there a Palpaces v2?

By BlackCadian, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hey guys,

we have another club tournament coming up in a few months, and this time I wanted to get a bit of a head-start unlike last time.

I tried both Scum and Empire a few times since then but still had the most fun with Palpaces which I flew in the first tourney. So I was wondering if by now there might exist a kind of Palpaces 2.0 what with all the new cards and ships having come out in the meantime? Maybe with a Striker instead of the nerfed Defender or something?

By the way our meta isnt super competitive, in January our best player won it all with a Doomshuttle/Vessery/Kath Scarlet list.

Thanks!

There's nothing too shabby with the original version ;) QuickDraw is a very strong imperial pilot, and if you have cruise missiles these are very effective on imperial aces.

Chiraneau and Quickdraw is probably your best bet for a good Palp list.

I will probably be bringing this to a tournament next week. The list has a lot of options and is pretty strong vs. the current meta. Die Nym...

Other that that, i think the following list has had a bit of success. It's called something 2.0, but I'm forgtting what. Not super sure on the upgrades either :)

Don't forget collision detector, it's free and could save you a crit from debris!
