Again, this is another topic in the X wing forums. Without Restrictions, Squadron Swarms become incredibly broken, Arquitens become even more deadly with Ackbar. They also benefit from Madine. TIE/Z-95 swarms become very deadly, as with having both Howlrunner and Blount will give them Two rerolls and a Blue die. What are some others you guys can come up with?
No Faction Restrictions. What becomes OP?
Why
Cr-90's, MC30's, and to a lesser extent Nebulon B's with Jerjerod.

Motti-flown HMC80s dedicated to tanking damage. RBD, ECM/AP, Walex or DCM, Engineering Team or Medical Team. . .
11 hull, 4 pseudo-hull (RBD + MT), effectively 2 braces. . . spam engineering. . .

Somewhere between why not? And Because we can.
Gladiator & Raiders with Mon Mothma.
The first thing I checked when I got my GR75 was whether the combat version had side arcs... because of Ackbar lol

Omg yes. How could I forget that.
Nothing is really OP. It just opens a whole new world of zany combos where mix and match could make for some very unique match ups. I think I will suggest this for a one off tourney at the flgs.
Raddus AvengerBT
Madine ISD.
Jendon Keyen
Jendon Ten Numb
Reiken Aceholes
Quasar with Dodonna Bombers
I think it's mostly in the squadrons.
Yavaris + Jendon + Adar + many different things: Tien Nunb, Maarek, Saber, Bossk, IG-88, Morna, etc.
Adar + Mauler.
Toryn in pretty much every Sloane fleet.
And I would slit throats to get Screed in with my MC30s. :/
I could see Rieekan Demo being super frustrating, but I don't think it's necessarily any more OP than just regular old Demo already is.
Screed and Torpedo Hammerheads. Imagine this;
- Assault Pelta, Shields to maximum, Concussion missiles (69pts)
- 4x T.F.Antilles Torp Hammerheads, boarding engineers, Concussion missiles (48pts each)
- 139pts remaining
At close range each Hammerhead puts out 5 near-guaranteed damage (plus braced only to 4), with C.F dial can double arc for a further 4 guaranteed damage from the side. Plus can flip 2 damage cards to crits. Defensively can spread damage and restore that damage through the pelta.
Other ideas;
- Tua on a Liberty with ECM.
- Needa and Mon Mothma on MC80s
- Needa and TRC on MC80s (Ackbar Defiance, or Mon Karren SW-7)
- Toryn Farr with Sloan/Blue dice fighters
Rhymer and Norra.
OMG! Vector with B wings!!

No, with Vector, it automatically increases speed to 5.
EDIT: Nevermind What is just said. I got to excited. I forgot that it was increased by 1 to a maximum of 5, and not right to 5.
Edited by schmidty1701Now here's an addition to this topic. What if we took away the Modification key word. Spinal, Enhanced, and Ion turbines on a Liberty or Cymoon 1? Sure, I'll take that!

Spinal, QBT, and LS on a Liberty Battlecruiser.
I can't tell you how many times I've realized I had the perfect new build for the Liberty only to go to build it and have AFD swat my hand for trying to use two modifications. ![]()
Rhymer with E-wings and Lancers.

If that us not broken it is quite close.
And there are other combinations like Luke+Jendon+Adar
2 shots from Luke + another 2 shots from Luke through Jendon + another shot from Luke thanks to Adar. All of them activate from wherever through Relay and ignoring shields. Add a BCC and you would be able to blow up an mc80 or VSD. Maybe that was what happened in the episode IV who knows?
NOTE: not sure if Jendon would give two additional attacks. The trigger is during your activation so I think it would work just once even with Yavaris. However it makes 4 attacks anyway which are still quite powerful with Luke or Maarek.
Also: Sloane+Farr+Bwings+BCC would be brutal.
The only thing that would be OP, is a decent list that isnt relying on janky mechanics and the moving parts that go with them.
Ackbar, 15 Gozantis, Shara.
Oh yes and Opening Salvo. ![]()
