List advice

By Harlaan, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I am a relatively new player, I was looking to make use of the new toys from saw's renegades together with a couple of ships i am familiar with and i came up with these two lists:

Norra Wexley (29)
Push the Limit (3)
Saw Gerrera (1)
R2-D2 (4)
Vectored Thrusters (2)
Alliance Overhaul (0)

List 1:

Wedge and Wes? Hells Yes! They're a bit squishy, mind, but overall good. Norra, however, is SUPER weak to reapers these days. You want a wingman who doesn't rely on tokens so much - Maulzra Auzi, Keyan Maullander, etc etc.

List 2:

I think this list is too loaded. I fly Saw, and his weakness is, he is VERY cumbersome. I agree that he needs Hera and Wired. I would then use Ezra crew for some more mods and CollDet to free up the board. Ditch EU and AT - its just not worth it on such a ship, that will rarely be able to proc it.

That leaves you 11 points. I would get rid of Rey's EU so you can fit a Z with a little something.

Just a bit more versatility of options that way.

For not relying on tokens, I love the idea that was posted of Rey with Saw, Finn, and Crack Shot. 52 points and seems like it could murder something.

What to pair with it though - is a solo flying Miranda any good these days or is she not really worth it outside of the 100pt Miranda lists where everything is built to support her?

How would I fit Ezra to allow me to use maul with keyan? How about using instead saw with ten nunb and a mangler cannon?

If you're using Saw on Ten, may as well not waste points on the cannon. That thing'll die FAST.

Honestly I think the Maulzra Auzi would be the best option
