I have enjoyed running the following but I'm trying to fill the last 50 points or so, I'd like to keep as big a bid as possible.

Luke Skywalker (X-Wing)

S-Foils, R2-D2, Proton Torpedoes, Supernatural Reflexes (91)

Warden Sq Pilot (K-Wing)

Barrage Rockets, Proton Bombs (51)

(142)

Options include (all other thoughts or opinions on the following are welcomed!):

I really like Sabine in the Attack Shuttle as a good side ship, got 3 different builds.

(38) Sabine Wren

(5) Nien Nunb
Points 51

(38) Sabine Wren

Depends on what you need really from the support ship.

good luck with ideas

you either keep 5 points for wedge's initiative bid or add advanced slam to Miranda for better reloading.

Interesting. I flew SNR Luke (but with Regen and torps) along side a couple of K's with barrage and a bomb of choice and it's fairly solid.

I love how quickly the list jumps on enemy lists, the k wings just slam up the side of the board and Luke slow rolls giving them a bad choice either way.

I have just felt that one K could be dropped for something else and having a hard time finding something that will work. Perhaps a slow rolling bit of beef would work and Luke can go flank, obstructed shots at a stressed Braylen make the b wing look very solid, but does he do more than a K can? (Blocking potential, bombs, can escape when wounded, etc...)

I thought about a Lone Wolf Thane but I think he will go down too easy and before his ability really starts to matter.

Jan with moldy crow, Jyn, and Juke fits if I drop the torps from Luke (he has 4 dice from Jan anyway so no biggie.)

Loving 2e for the choices though, if the U-Wing/Auzituck had better crew options or was a touch cheaper that would be fun. Or the ARC for that matter.
