RAC Star

By Salacious Crumb, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I just got a star wing and haven't played a game in 3 months. I'd like to take this to a tournament tomorrow, but I'm not sure if it's a good choice or legal.

My big questions are...

  1. Is linked battery and predator allow me to re-roll two dice?
  2. Is there a better configuration?

RAC STAR

99 points

PILOTS

Lieutenant Karsabi (39)
Alpha-class Star Wing (24), Predator (3), XG-1 Assault Configuration (1), Advanced SLAM (2), Linked Battery (2), Heavy Laser Cannon (7)

Rear Admiral Chiraneau (60)
VT-49 Decimator (46), Wired (1), Cluster Mines (4), Bombardier (1), Extra Munitions (2), Dauntless (2), Engine Upgrade (4)

You cannot reroll the same die twice. So you can reroll one or two with Predator, and a different die win Lb for a max of three rerolls. Could be helpful, I suppose. Maybe overkill for the majority of rolls.

FWIW wired is an excellent upgrade that complements his Pilot ability offensively and defensively.

Wired seems redundant on RAC. I would much rather have VI on him for the same points. I would also not use bombs. Kylo Ren is a great choice, so is Rebel Captive, Gunner, HotCop.

I would leave Karsabi as is, but find a less redundant EPT, considering you have Linked Batteries already.

Sorry, I wasn’t clear. I meant Wired for Karsabi since he’s stressed a lot based on the pilot ability and having adv slam.

Lol no, in the original list! It's great on Karsabi!
