A GOOD Double YT 1300 list?

By cybercat07, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Recently just bought Heroes of the Resistance, and now I am trying to come up with a way to make a viable double YT 1300 list. What are the thoughts of the hive-mind? Can this be done?

Here is my collection, just so you folks can see what I'm working with. I'm putting the name of the sets;

1 Starter Set original

1 Starter Set the Force Awakens

2 TIE Fighters

2 Interceptors

2 Defenders

1 Aggressor

1 Punisher

1 TIE Adv

1 Imperial Aces

1 Firespray

2 X wing

2 A wing

1 E wing

1 B wing

1 Rebel Aces

1 Falcon

1 ARC

1 Scurgg Bomber

1 Starviper

3 Kihraxz

Yes it can. Christ knows if you've got the bits but your collection seems pretty big, so probably.

You run Lando & Chewie, and both get TL/Focus/Evade every turn at PS7.

  • Lando : PTL, Kyle Katarn, Evade title
  • Chewie : VI, Rec Spec, Jan Ors

I would love to try this list>

Chewie
-VI
-Jan Ors
-Zeb

Rey
-PTL
-Kyle Katarn
-MF Title
-Nien Nunb

Chewie helps with the face up damage cards, and Rey is evading& focusing every turn. Nien is there to help clear stress to get the second focus token.

According to your list you only have 1 Falcon, from the HOTR expansion. Do you have the original Falcon?

Ooh duh! Yes. Seems as if I missed one of the two most important ships for the post!

For a double 1300 list, there's really one pilot to look to first and that's Rey. I kind of prefer her with a ghost because they're a little punchier and might take heat off her or at least slam some serious damage in there while she's getting beat up.

That said, I do have a double 1300 list that I haven't flown yet but would like to see how it does. It's called Old Dog, New Tricks (Chewie is the old dog and Rey has new tricks with new sloop Falcon title).

YT-1300: · Rey (45)

Adaptability (Increase) (0)

· Finn (5)

· Kanan Jarrus (3)

· Millennium Falcon (Segnor's Loop) (1)

YT-1300: · Chewbacca (42)

Rage (1)

· Bistan (2)

Inspiring Recruit (1)

-- TOTAL ------- 100p. --

I've also been thinking about trying a double-Falcon list recently and like most of the others above decided that Rey and Chewbacca were the best options. Here's what I came up with:

Rey - Wired, Finn, Kanan Jarrus, Millenium Falcon (HotR)

Chewbacca - Trick Shot, C-3PO, Chopper

Basically Rey should be very punchy if she can keep an opponent in her front arc (and will also get some defence bonuses), and Chewie should be pretty tough. Neither of them are as tough or as punchy as they could be but that's the compromise you make when choosing 2 expensive ships. I'm not sure all of those cards will be available from you collection so you may need to proxy or borrow them, or try to find alternatives that do the same job.

Rey & Ragin' Chewie:

Rey (56)
YT-1300 (45), Expert Handling (2), Finn (5), Kanan Jarrus (3), Millennium Falcon (Segnor's Loop Version) (1)

Chewbacca (44)
YT-1300 (42), Rage (1), Inspiring Recruit (1), "Chopper" (0)

VI Rey for higher PS, or Determination Rey to make your list laugh at Kylo Ren.

I second the Lando/Chewie all actions list from above. However, this is also a respectable option. I've only flown it once; I wasn't blown away, but I might not have flown it well.

Resistance Sympathizer

Gunner

OpSpec

GC

Harpoons

x2

I like this list. Rey get to reroll blanks and eyeballs with wookie commandos. Landon is feeding her free actions. And both are at PS 9 or higher.

Twin Falcons ( 100 )

Rey — YT-1300 45
Veteran Instincts 1
Wookiee Commandos 1
Hull Upgrade 3
Millennium Falcon 1
Ship Total: 51
Lando Calrissian — YT-1300 44
Veteran Instincts 1
Wookiee Commandos 1
Hull Upgrade 3
Ship Total: 49

Well I am a bit late to the party but I like this for a 100 point build. I know most people twin Rey with Kanan and the S-Loop title but I would rather stay alive for longer and don't find it too hard to keep people in arc to benefit from Rey's ability combined with Finn.

Rey (45)
Expertise (4)
Finn (5)
C-3PO (3)
Millennium Falcon - Original (1)

Chewbacca - Original (42)
A Score To Settle - helps get crits through at no detriment to you really.
Chopper (0) - just there because it's free

In the current "Look out for those crits" Meta, Old school Chewie with DTF is a solid choice, and I have ran it regularly with Rey/Finn/Kanan, add upgrades to flavor (3pts if you use new falcon title)

I flew this today against a buddy. Well, this plus Nien Nunb on Lando to make it an even 100. It was a fun and surprisingly easy to fly list, even if I wished I could reposition a couple times. Managed to pull off a win. Thanks!

There was someone who did pretty well in the big regional in Chicago a month ago which looked really cool to me:

Resistance Sympathizer (Rey, Gunner, Engine Upgrade) 49

Resistance Sympathizer (C-3PO, Gunner, Evade MF title, Engine Upgrade) 51

I'd love to fly it some myself, but only have the one R.S. Tile/Pilot. Easy to proxy, but still. What looks fun about it is the way they can really move, dash into Range 1 of pesky Gunboats, and are pretty unlikely to truly miss due to Gunner.

GAHHHH I forgot about this thread, but I had thought of this list a while back:

Chewie

Rage

IR

Kanan

Smuggling Compartment

Scavenger Crane

Countermeasures

Resistance Sympathizer

Ezra

Maul

Evade Title

Countermeasures.

I would totally fly this myself if I weren't dead-set against buying into Scum, the only way to get some of the cards.
