Jess's Gambit

By Wiredin, in X-Wing Squad Lists

With "Jess and the Jukes" having issues competing right now, I've been trying to find alternatives for Swarm Leader shenanigans... I like this one.

round 1 - load up the comm relay and optics. then start getting in position to unleash ****! It's a 5-6 dice attack, but the nice thing is that the T70's will be a little more durable and effective in combat than A-Wings. Or at least thats' my hope.

This is a neat take on T-210!

This is interesting. I admit, I don't know if Debris Gambit and Comm Relay are worth the investment. Yes, it guarantees that one bomb-@$$ attack, but after that? Who knows if it will pull it's weight? I don't think they are worth the points.

can recharge for more killer attacks, and gives them the ability to stay alive. or that is the plan. :P

I've been debating swapping optics instead of comms, but I think I want to bank those Evades for playing outside the rocks.

I loved the jess and the jukes lit (even won a store champ with those). however im not that sold on debris gambit. Intensity red veterans have been doing quite well, so why not put jess in the lead of them?

Nice list! Did you mean to put Swarm Leader on Jess (instead of Swarm Tactics)?

yes that would put the list at 101, I guess can downgrade an auto to IA. And play at 99.

why didn't I remember Intensity.... well ****. ooops.

Intensity would be WAY better than Debris Gambit, I'd say!

just a tad hey?

I'll be flying my version tonight. I had to build it originally with 3 different pilots because of the league I'm in where we cannot reuse pilots, including generics. But I think 3 Red Vets with FFA and Comm's will be the way to go. should get some pretty crazy action efficiency.
