2E Han+X+X

By Npmartian, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Han+X+X (200/200)

Modified YT-1300 Freighter-Han Solo w/ Millenium Falcon, Trick Shot, Lando Calrissian and Bistan (118)

2x Blue Squadron Escort w/ Servomotor S-Foils (41 each)

The goal here is to get Han tokened up with Lando, shoot twice with Bistan, and reroll like crazy while the Blues block and provide support for the Falcon. I chose Blues over Cavern Angels so that I have the initiative advantage over Init 1 generics like Cavern Angels or Khiraxzes. Any other suggestions?

Cartel Marauders are Init 2 actually, if that makes any difference in your decision making.

I got bamboozled by 1.0 thinking. It could prove to be better to have Cavern Angels instead of Blues, but I go down to init 1 and it still costs the same. If there turns out to be Init 1 threats which need blocking (which I somewhat doubt), then Cavern Angels are the way to go.

You mean besides the Academy Swarm?

I'd much rather be able to move after them and shoot before them with a 9-die mini alpha strike to try and kill one and force Iden's ability.
