Are double, if not even triple, Fang Fighters viable. They are my favorite ship to fly and was wondering what kind of lists I could fit two into.
Double Fang Fighters. Viable?
This leaves me with 24 points left over, maybe I should drop the torpedoes to gain another 9 points. What do you suggest.
I love the Fang Fighters and would have to agree on dropping the Torps. Maybe throw VI on Old T so you can pick and choose who to engage first with. What do you think about this list? It keeps your Fenn untouched but gives you three ships at PS9 (or one at PS11 if you want):
Fenn Rau (PS9)
- Expertise, Concord Dawn Protectorate, Autothrusters
Old Teroch (PS9)
- VI, Concord Dawn Protectorate, Autothrusters
Talonbane Cobra (PS9)
- Expertise, XX-23 S-Thread Tracers, Contraband Cybernetics, Vaksai, Vectored Thrusters, Pulse Ray Shields, Guidance Chips
Total Squad Points = 98
P.S. I'm also quite partial to Fearlessness on TBC with Cloaking Device and Stygium Particle Accelerator putting the above list at 97 points.
Edited by MUrunner20Adv proton torps arent the best on fenn since he already gets 5 dice at range 1. Tossing plasmas on him with PTL or riding along manaroo can give him a decent first strike negating range bonus and doing a minimum of two damage if it hits.
Terochs ability is kinda "Meh" right now. Unless they FAQ him to remove reinforce. So many passive abilities and mods that you are walking into certain death. However, with advance optics being popular though, maybe just ptl on him to block those carriers. That way you screw with their tokens, but dont take a range 1 shot to the face by expertise quickdraw followed with a Palp crit.
Kad Solus might not be a horrible option with Expertise. Keep his focus for defense, and when he kturns or tallons he gets two focus tokens, so he is always ready to go.
Fenn Rau (28)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Plasma Torpedoes (3)
Autothrusters (2)
Concord Dawn Protector (1)
Kad Solus (25)
Expertise (4)
Autothrusters (2)
Concord Dawn Protector (1)
Manaroo (27)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
K4 Security Droid (3)
Tactical Jammer (1)
Total: 99
both lists sound good, The manaroo one sounds very nice. I am just concerned about facing a TLT/bomber list.
This would be super fun to fly but would not be viable at all, maybe I will run it next casual game night.

Autothrusters will definitely help with turrets. Haven't played against too many bomb lists but PTL may be better so you can BR/Boost out of the blast radius and getting into Range 1 to negate the effectiveness of TLT. At the end of the day, fly what you want. There have been plenty of times I've flown a list and asked myself, "why the heck did I do that OR use that card?!?!" and I've learned so much from that experience. Hope you get to play and have fun!
I’ve been flying two with Thweek and a four point bid, which is decent, going to try with Guri at some point.
I feel like Fenn is a hard countera againstTLTs and the rebels Fenn ghost combo, don't think the other ships add much. Do you have a lancer?
Just watch out for bombs.

Addition
I still like Manaroo and Attanni. Fenn with Attanni is also really solid. Tried them with guri and it worked well for me.
Haven't tried the triple since I only have to.

Not sure about the expertise. I would also consider recon specialist on Manaroo, but I can see where the K4 is coming from.

Yes I do own a Lancer. What did you have in mind.

The lancer just seems to be the most successful scum ship on meta wing. maybe something like this
Fenn Rau (32) Protectorate Starfighter (28), Attanni Mindlink (1), Concord Dawn Protector (1), Autothrusters (2)
Asajj Ventress (46) Lancer-class Pursuit Craft (37), Lone Wolf (2), Latts Razzi (2), Glitterstim (2), Shadow Caster (3)
Inaldra (22) M3-A “Scyk” Interceptor (15), Attanni Mindlink (1), “Heavy Scyk” Interceptor (2), “Mangler” Cannon (4)
Oh this guys, is having some success with Fenn and he is a good read. https://suchanxwinghipster.wordpress.com/
How's about this?
Fenn
PTL
Title
AT
Kad
Expertise
Title
AT
Teroch
PTL
Title
AT
They all have the standard title and AT. Its an old meta Fenn, sir, but it checks out. Kad either has Expertise + action, or double focus on a red. Teroch is Teroch, plus PTL versatility.
I've played with double/triple Protectorates quite a bit.
Its fun, but no way top level competitive. Prepare to win some super fun dog fights and lose some in spectacular fashion. Push the limit and patience are keys for succesful Fang Fighter games I think 
thank you all for your input.
