No, seriously. What the ever loving
frak
am I supposed to do with this thing? Its dial isn't very good, it's not terribly sturdy, and while, yes, it does have two crew and a gunner... Okay, then what? Who's even a good pilot? What's even
with
Han Solo's ability? Oh gee good job Han Solo, you can place yourself on the board after everybody else has or before another I6 if you've won the initiative bid, that's just fantastic. Thanks for having an ability that's useful once per game. What's that, Chewie can do some cool stuff if a friendly dies? So a max of four times if I run Chewie naked with four naked Blue Squadron recruits?
Okay.
Let's see- Rey? Well hey, okay, she can actually change results with the force, that's pretty good. Can guarantee an evade or a hit if something is in her arc. Now that's quite nice.
But uh, then what the **** do I run with her?
The Falcon is definitely the strangest ship here. I'd be tempted to run the generics if only for lower cost on this platform.

I think Han's whole thing is that you use him to split your enemy ships' focus or risk having him come in behind them. You can also throw Rey onto him and get her ability though limited to 1 force rather than 2. Chewie seems pretty interesting and downright has the best art for the Salvaged Falcon pilots, and don't forget his ability also works on himself. As for Rey, most times I just hear about her being paired with Poe for a two ship list.

Maybe. Two ship lists seem like intense risk, and I haven't had good experiences with Poe just yet.
Rey/Nien/L'ulo seems like a decent list. Rey is vulnerable, but can boost/rotate/lock depending on the situation, so she shouldn't immediately get hit by three protorps. Nien is a solid heavy hitter in the early/mid game, and L'ulo is very hard to catch if he survives to the late game. I'd just make sure I'd take out any I6 aces early on.
Edited by Okapi-Run Rey with both I5 a-wings with heroic and predator
-Run Rey with 1 A-wing and 1 T-70
-Run Rey with 2 cheap/naked T-70’s
-Don’t run Rey
She has a few reasonable wingmates.
What I'm wondering is just, why take Rey over the Bomber?
I5 large base with boost, sloop, 3 dice turret, and auto regening bank of calculate tokens?
Spend those actions boosting, locking, focusing, or whatever shenanigans you decide her to upgrade with.
The bomber is beefy and delivers a ton of area denial, but no instant option to flip.
See the Han/Poe thread in Squad Lists. Resistance Falcon is probably best Falcon, because of Rey Gunner.
Rey / Poe is also a beast.
Don't forget to include Rose on Rey and Proton Torps on Poe..

Scum Han with trickshot is pretty cheap for what you get.
Theres also synergy between Han crew and Finn's added blank
Plus the title doesn't care if you only got one stress, so you can sloop just fine after
Naked Rey, or just with falcon title is pretty good all things considered.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahhhahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahaahhahaahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahhahahaahhahahahahaahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahaahahhaahahahaahahahahahahahhaahaggagagagagagsgahahagagagaggaggaaaaaaaaa abba oh mow mow, abba oh mow mow.
Don’t you know about the bird?! Well everyone knows that the bird is the word!
(Okay I have no idea. Chewie is charged based (angry Wookiee noises) New New Old Han is the same, so I guess either go generic or super Rey? (Rose+Finn+title)
Or Let the past die. Kill it, if you have to. Fly silencers.
Han with Finn, Rose, Heroic is BOMB, fully modded, glory.
Rey is fantastic naked.
Either would excell even more with the title and or Contraband Cybernetics.
Rey could also take Finn and Rose.
They are BRILLIANT together. They are brilliant with Poe. They are brilliant with others.
This Han with Poe is the first 2 ship list in 2.0 that I fly with success. Han is unblockable, gets free TL, can change his dice like 1.0 palp and comes in at I6.

Ah. And if you don’t like Poe throw in 2 A Wings.
Edited by RyunekeRey naked is just fine for 80pts. Hard not to put her in a list for that price.
Toss L'ulo in with Heroic and trickshot and you got 80pts left to play with. Enough for a decent Poe, couple more named awings, etc.
Han with Rey Gunner is no joke either.
Well, as you said in another thread, the bombers are #SOGOOD!!1!!1, just fly your winning list and be done with it. What do you care? Leave the Falcon on the shelf with the rest of the stuff that needs 3.0 to be moar good. You guys will eventually get 3.0.
Kill the past and all.

BECAUSE I WANNA' GIT GUD AT THE WHOLE FACTION.
I've had great results flying Rey/Ello (or as I call it in the list builder: Ello, Nurse!) Yeah, it's only two ships, but man is it fun to fly against ANYTHING that isn't more than 3 ships.

Yearh, I have the same experience, she has got it all, looks, body, movement 10/10 - only downside is she screams "Kylo" where I would have her to scream my name..

Han’s ability is be an i6 Rey that can use Rey’s ability in the mobile arcs, sure one force. But that’s a lot better than stuck to the front only.
It's a A large base turret with boost and passive dice mods. What more do you need? Fly in a big fat circle, gunning people down.

And include a PTL arc-dodging I6 flyboy with Torpedoes.
