Beginner Scum list?

By Cry Ptic Life, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I’m an intermediate pilot, tactic beginner, terrible at list building, and play against only a couple of different ppl. Going to the store again in about a week, so should change that. This list is a copy of the Belgium national winner, don’t recall the name, but he ran Assaj, Thweek and Contracted Scout. I changed Thweek to Fenn Rau, and played around with the upgrades. Feel free to laugh cuz I suck at list building.

Assaj Ventress(44)

Shadow Caster(3)

Adaptability +1 (0)

Dengar(3)

Black Market Slicer Tools(1)

Contracted Scout(27)

Veteran Instincts(1)

Rigged Cargo Chute(1)

Concord Dawn Ace(29)

Push the Limit(3)

Seismic Torpedo(2)

Concord Dawn Protector(1)

Guidance Chips(0)

Keep in mind that I would choose Glitterstim and Crack shot over some of the upgrades, the problem is that I don’t own those upgrades.

Thank you and I appreciate it if you answer! Don’t be afraid to laugh or criticize.

Lattz for crew of Dengar. It makes her so much more defensive.

I think you should drop chips and the seismic for autothrusters on the protectorate. Chips won't help on the seismic anyone. It's an action, not a regular attack

If you are using the scout as a bumpmaster, try intimidation for the EPT. And/or a cheaper crew like Zuchess/4lom.

If this is a friendly game, you could always proxy upgrades you don't have.

Ok thx! Wow I didn’t even see the seismic missile. I just threw that with guidance together. I don’t have autothrusters, what’s a good substitute? Thx for all the answers. I’m still a noob

I guess stealth device is okay on Fenn, might save you a shot or two. If not, the extra point from dengar to latts could give you a decent missile for Fenn. Cruise could be interesting.

I don't get it. Do you play Fenn or the ace on the Starfighter?

I would rather run Asajj with Trickshot or Ascore to settle both are zero points and better than Adaptability on Asajj.
Stealth Device could be used on Fenn, if you can not borrow Autothrusters. But I rather run Autothrusters on both Thweek and Fenn.
Latts is better on Asajj then Dengar.
Shadow caster title on Asajj is not worth the points.

If you could borrow 2 autothrusters, then I would run this list

Asajj, Adaptability, Latts Razzi (39)
Thweek, Mk II title, Autothrusters (27)
Fenn, PTL, title, Autothrusters (27)

If you can not, then I would put Stealth Device on Fenn and exchange Adaptability on Asajj with Crack Shot.

Asajj, Crack Shot, Latts Razzi (39)
Thweek, Mk II title (25)
Fenn, PTL, title, Stealth Device (30)

If you want to run the bumpmaster and either has or can borrow Intelligence Agent, I would run one of these lists

Asajj, PTL, Latts Razzi (42)
Thweek, Mk II title, Plasma Torp, Stealth Device (31)
Contracted Scout, Adaptability, Intelligence Agent, Rigged Cargo Chute (27)

Asajj, Adaptability (or Trickshot or A score to settle if you can), Latts Razzi (39)
Fenn, PTL, title, Stealth Device (35)
Contracted Scout, Adaptability, Intelligence Agent (26)

You are trying to just create parattanni, maybe without realizing it, so just do parattanni:

Latts Razzi (2)

Fenn Rau (28)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Stealth Device (3)
Concord Dawn Protector (1)

People at store may go "Ughhhhh!" cause it's still a powerful list. There are other variants out there that are good like the Thweek version, and inadlra with HLC version.

Asajj Ventress (37)
Push the Limit (3)
Latts Razzi (2)

Fenn Rau (28)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Stealth Device (3)
Concord Dawn Protector (1)

Inaldra (15)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Heavy Laser Cannon (7)
"Heavy Scyk" Interceptor (Cannon) (2)

Awesome. I realized how idiotic my post sounds like, but thanks a lot for the advice. I’ll try (hopefully) all these lists and find one that I like. Again thanks a lot.
