AshoRanRick list :D

By Susanooo, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Im preparing for SOS in cravow and ive decided to fly something new. I've used to fly NorRey but now i want something classic that is 3 small base ships that require to use their arcs. So far ive managed to pull of 2 wins but i would gladly hear your opininon abou the list itself and how to fly it.

Ashoranrick:

Corran Horn :

push the limit

engine upgrade

fire control system

R2D2

Ashoka Tano:

captured tie

Lowhhrick:

selflessness

rey

C3P0

Those 3 ships cost 100 point total. Basic idea is that ashoka geants corran a reposition or tokens after combat phase begins (after all of those aces moves), lowhhrick keeps corran alive through initial joust and after that corran picks targets and dpuble taps the **** out of them supported with that wookie gunshio huge arc of fire. Ive won with kylo quickdraw omega ace list, and some strange swarmy list with 2 tie fo, baron of the empire, punisher and agressor. I also think that bombet matchups could be a huge pain due to low range of lowhhrick and ashoka skills. Also i will consider using fenn instead of ashoka and strip some upgrades from lowhhrick to do so.

what do you think?

I have never been a fan of Corran, tbh. I think he is way too many points for his reward, which can be seen in how pointlessly light you are forced to run Ahsoka. Her and Low will scarcely be able to do damage.

with ashoka i could potentialy strip corran from ptl to give her more stuff because he can still reposition pretty well with ashoka ability

I might go for Fenn Rau instead of Ahsoka. First, I feel like Ahsoka is too squishy these days, since there are so many higher PS pilots out there. Dropping some of the crew from Lowhhrick would open up Fenn Rau. Going Selflessness/Wookiee Commandos (or Draw Their Fire, both have merits) on Lowhhrick would free up 4 points, enough for Fenn Rau and up to two points of upgrades, if I'm mathing right. Perhaps that's keeping either Rey or C-3PO on Lowhhrick. Perhaps it's VI and a droid (Flight Assist Astromech or R2 Astromech) on Fenn Rau. Perhaps Fenn can get by with just Adaptability.

Fenn Rau does something similar to Ahsoka in giving Corran an action high in the PS order. There's still a benefit to keeping Push the Limit, too, since you can use the free action from Coordinate to trigger it. Just focus early with Corran, then Boost/Barrel Roll at PS 11.

However, unlike Ahsoka, Fenn Rau has a potent ability to prevent your opponent from modifying dice. Many ships which carry Harpoons use Long Range Scanners to come in with Focus/TL, and Fenn Rau stops them from using either to modify their dice. I saw Sol Syxxa miss an Auzituck with Harpoons the other day due to Fenn Rau's ability.

for this week i will test ashoka but next week (after payment :D ) i will buy phantom II and try fenn rau instead. However. Ashoka has 3 green dice. for harpoon missles thays big deal, because azituck is the best suitabke target. Both ashoka and corran can benefit from lowhhrick ability to just add another evade result to thwir already 3 dice defense. fenn will propably have to eat that harpoon and hes not so resilent as azituck. But as i said i need ti experiment with those things, try corran with vi instead of ptl and even i will try exchanging corran for something else entirely (poe or norra comes into my mind)
