Cassian, Ten, Braylen

By Lanthal, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So I'm looking at something like this:

Cassian w/ Debris Gambit, Perceptive copilot, pivot wing (59)

Ten Numb w/ Trick shot, HLC, adv. Sensors (63)

Braylen w/ trick shot, HLC, adv. Sensors (63)

The idea is for cassian to destress to open up a b-wings moves but it comes in at 185pts and I don't know where I should spend. Thought about Leia on the U-wing to allow for reds while stressed on the bs.

Thoughts?

Funny enough I have made a similar list but more bareboned

Braylen- trick shot, shield upgrade

Ten Numb- trick shot, shield upgrade

Cassian Andor- Pivot wing, Hera, Tactical officer, Elusive

AP-5- R-4 astro, Composure

Trying to keep the Bs cheap but can still dish out some damage and take some as well, five shields can be a lifesaver against crits.

Cassian is great to help remove stress when I need it gone and with hera and elusive he can stay in place a little and get a reroll, and his ability til goes off even of he is stressed

Ap-5 goes with Bs amazingly, being able to coordinate even if they are stressed. Composureis there in case either ap gets something if i can't coordinate someone and being able to get a focus on a droid is nice.

What about Jyn and Juke on Cassian?

AP-5 cannot use Composure as he does not have the focus action on his action bar. Other than that, that squad looks really good.

Here's my version, I also opted to bring in AP-5 in case I want to hold onto the stress on the B-Wings and still have actions. Informant on Cassian helps out with the low initiative on the B-Wings so they can block or line up shots better. I found this list to be a ton of fun. I didn't get to shoot the HLC's a ton but they did force my opponent to boost/barrel roll out of bullseye a few times.

Sheathipede-class Shuttle - •AP-5 - 30
•AP-5 - Escaped Analyst Droid (30)

UT-60D U-wing - •Cassian Andor - 54
•Cassian Andor - Raised by the Rebellion (47)
•Informant (5)
•Jyn Erso (2)
Pivot Wing (Open) (0)

A/SF-01 B-wing - •Braylen Stramm - 54
•Braylen Stramm - Blade Leader (50)
Heavy Laser Cannon (4)

A/SF-01 B-wing - •Ten Numb - 62
•Ten Numb - Blue Five (50)
Advanced Sensors (8)
Heavy Laser Cannon (4)

Total: 200/200

I've been really liking the idea of the two B's the U and Ap. I've been working on my own version. I do think that a shield upgrade would serve the B wings better than the HLC. I also played around with the idea of putting Leia on the list but Ten and Brayden want that stress. Anyway this is my version of the list. Not worlds different but let me know if I've missed something important.

A/SF-01 B-wing - •Ten Numb - 57
•Ten Numb - Blue Five (50)
Elusive (3)
Shield Upgrade (4)

A/SF-01 B-wing - •Braylen Stramm - 57
•Braylen Stramm - Blade Leader (50)
Elusive (3)
Shield Upgrade (4)

Sheathipede-class Shuttle - •AP-5 - 32
•AP-5 - Escaped Analyst Droid (30)
•Jyn Erso (2)

UT-60D U-wing - •Cassian Andor - 54
•Cassian Andor - Raised by the Rebellion (47)
Tactical Officer (2)
•Informant (5)
Pivot Wing (Open) (0)

AP-5 with Selfless is almost too good a deal to pass up, 15 pts cheaper than Biggs and saves your B-Wings vs a Proton Torp alpha strike.

I did a similar list but:

Cassian Andor — U-Wing47

Crack Shot1

Tactical Officer2

Pivot Wing0

Ship Total: 50

Braylen Stramm — B-Wing50

Crack Shot1

Ship Total: 51

Ten Numb — B-Wing50

Crack Shot1

Ship Total: 51

Garven Dreis — X-Wing47

Crack Shot1

Servomotor S-foils0

Ship Total: 48

Cassian can remove stress to allow more movement to the B's and then coordinate to Ten for target lock while Garven was giving concentration token to Braylen or Cassian depending on situation.

All PS4 except cassian, was fun to play and had a lot of firepower, but scored mid-rank as the B took a lot of damage and even when they did not die, half the points were gone easy :/
