Flying Squirrels

By Alekzanter, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I've been mulling the idea of flying 4 Black Squadron Scout TIE Strikers, each w/ Adaptive Ailerons, Engine Uprade, and Lightning reflexes...perform the white 1 AA maneuver, flip 180°, perform a green maneuver and shed stress, then boost (squirrelly). Their fragile, but could be practically anywhere unexpected.

Any strategy or named pilot suggetions?

Cool idea. While I have yet to pick up more than one Striker, I'm tempted by lists like this.

At the last tornament I went to, I ran against a Palp Aces list that had all the named Strikers. It was glorious.

Omicron Group Pilot — Lambda-Class Shuttle 21
Electronic Baffle 1
Emperor Palpatine 8
Ship Total: 30
"Countdown" — TIE Striker 20
Adaptive Ailerons 0
Ship Total: 20
"Duchess" — TIE Striker 23
Veteran Instincts 1
Lightweight Frame 2
Adaptive Ailerons 0
Ship Total: 26
"Pure Sabacc" — TIE Striker 22
Trick Shot 0
Lightweight Frame 2
Adaptive Ailerons 0
Ship Total: 24

It would be a fun list to fly. The issue you are going to have is that ship explodes if you blow on it. 4 hull and 2 defense dice. Lighweight frame makes it so much more defensive.
