Two Falcons Required List Help

By Pash Horn, in X-Wing Epic Play

I plan on playing some 200 point team epic in a couple weeks. I've decided to set some silly conditions for myself.

I want any list I run to have 1) 2 falcons and 2) a rebel transport. So far this is what I've come up with. Tips and recommendations wanted!

Chewbacca (42)
Trick Shot (0)
Gunner (5)
C-3PO (3)
Engine Upgrade (4)
Millennium Falcon (1)

Resistance Sympathizer (38)
Gunner (5)
Rey (2)
Engine Upgrade (4)

GR-75 Medium Transport (30)
Jan Ors (2)
Courier Droid (0)
Comms Booster (4)

EM Emitter (3)

Jess Pava (25)

Epic seems ideal for TFA Chewie. You'll probably need more cannon fodder thought.

24pts of upgrades on the YT1300s could be 2 more ships...

I think more ships would be better.

Your transport really needs Automated Protocols. Proxy it if you don't have the card, it's the Fix card for small huge ships.

Ok so here is my suggestion and comments.
I will never fly a Rebel epic ship without Toryn and without a way to replenish energy fast. In the current meta Toryn is a must have! The last thing you want is to trace for Harpooned effect from a huge base ship!
You will also not need more than one Comms Booster, when you are flying only 3 other ships. I ve also never seen EM Emitter work, since if their attacks are obstructed, so are yours. And when you equip the falcons with Engine upgrade, you wont be hiding behind the transport. Recharging shields when you are running on fumes and not getting critted is gonna keep you longer in the game IMO.

If I was to build a 2 falcon rebel transport escort, this is how I would probably outfit it. Classic Chewee that can hold on his own and Ray that can feed off evades from 3 ships and do 6-7 die attacks.

• Rey + Swarm Leader + Jan Ors +Finn

• Chewbacca + Push the Limit + Kanan Jarrus + C-3PO + Millennium Falcon (Evade Version) + Engine Upgrade

GR-75 Medium Transport + Quantum Storm + Toryn Farr + Breach Specialist + Backup Shield Generator + Tibanna Gas Supplies + Automated Protocols

Green Squadron Pilot #1 + A-Wing Test Pilot + Chardaan Refit + Adaptability + Crack Shot

Green Squadron Pilot #2 + A-Wing Test Pilot + Chardaan Refit + Adaptability + Crack Shot
