Themed tournament: Female only pilots, female only crew

By Tupacca, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi all,

Looking for some advice regarding an upcoming themed tournament 'Ladies Night' which has the following rules:

  • Only female pilots or cards with with female art work (example: alt art Red Ace)
  • Only female crew or cards with female art work (example: recon specialist or alt art tactician)
  • Droid based crew are also allowed (example: K4, 3PO, Chopper etc.)

I have decided to trial variations of the following 'missile boat Miranda' list:

Miranda, Auto Blaster, EM, Harpoons, Rey, LRS

Jan Ors, TLT, Moldy Crow

Jess, R4D6, Integrated

or

Swap out VI for Adaptability on Jan, then replace R4D6 with the EPT astromech to give selflessness to Jess. Or put R3A2 on Jess.

Pros of the list:

  • Good action economy in the form on focus stacking (Rey/Moldy Crow) and Jess's native re rolls
  • Potent alpha strike from Miranda
  • Miranda not concerned with bumping as she will already have TL from LRS and a focus available from Rey (this also applies to Jan if she bumps and Jess due to her re-rolls)
  • 4 Die autoblaster/5 die primary with TL/focus is a good option if i fail to get R3 for the Harpoon
  • Regen

I have thought about making a TLT, Bomblet, Sabine list . . . .

Norra, Sharra Bey and Ashoka are also promising pilots.

Please let me know your thoughts!

Tupacca out!

Rey would probably still be good. Chopper is a reasonable Kanan replacement, and C-3PO is always good on Falcons. You don't get Finn's blank to reroll, but just having Expertise (or Chopper-focus) and Rey's natural rerolls is still going to be strong. Pair with Norra or Jan Ors?

  • Rey (58) YT-1300 (45), Expertise (4), "Chopper" (0), C-3PO (3), Millennium Falcon (Segnor's Loop Version) (1), Smuggling Compartment (0), Scavenger Crane (2), Counter-Measures (3)
  • Jan Ors (42) HWK-290 (25), Predator (3), Twin Laser Turret (6), Recon Specialist (3), Moldy Crow (3), Pulsed Ray Shield (2) [PRS will be bad most of the time, but just in case]

Asajj with Latts Razzi is going to be great, as would Ketsu with K4 instead of Dengar. Pretty much all Shadowcaster builds are the same as standard. Kath Scarlet could also probably be used.
