OH CRIT!!!

By wurms, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Bored and listbuilding. Like to mess around with new cards. Havent used Debris Gambit yet, and Backdraft is my favorite S/F

OH CRIT #1

Maarek Stele (TIE Defender) (35) w/ Predator (3), Twin Ion Engine Mk. II (1), TIE/x7 (-2)

"Backdraft" (27) w/ Debris Gambit (2), Fire-Control System (2), Advanced Optics (2), Lightweight Frame (2), Special Ops Training (0)

"Omega Ace" (20), Swarm Leader (3), Advanced Optics (2), Hull Upgrade (3)

Total: 100

All three have crit abilities, hence the name! Since all PS7, Omega Ace fires last for his auto crits. Hull upgrade allows him to not get alpha killed, hopefully.

or

OH CRIT #2

Maarek Stele (TIE Defender) (35) w/ Predator (3), Hull Upgrade (3), TIE/x7 (-2)

"Backdraft" (27) w/ Debris Gambit (2), Fire-Control System (2), Targeting Synchronizer (3), Lightweight Frame (2), Special Ops Training (0)

"Omega Ace" (20) w/ Swarm Leader (3), Advanced Optics (2)

Total: 100

Backdraft ditches adv optics for Target Synch. This lets Omega Ace take an evade action entering combat since he has a focus stored with adv optics and uses Backdrafts TL. Safe against counter measures and black one as well, and as long as Backdraft is alive and firing, Omega Ace can crit every round, just taking a focus.

This looks vaguely familiar

I like list 2, just because it feeds the gimmick a little better. In either list, however, I'd look at dropping Predator for A Score To Settle to generate more crits on Maarek. That would give you an extra hull upgrade somewhere.

I like list 2, though I don't really like Debris Gambit. Maybe VI?

I read backdraft as blackout. Now I wish I had backdraft
