So recently I have found that I really enjoy flying 4 ships in a tight formation using either box formation or offset formation. I was running Wedge, Jan, Thane, and AP-5 for extended and did very well with it but my gaming store is planning on moving towards hyperspace format for leagues and tournaments and I'm trying to figure out a list that is hyperspace legal and still has the same formation feel. Has anyone else had some success with a list that fly in formation?
Hyperspace Lists - Flying In Formation
8 TIE Fighters will give you 2 such formations on the table at once!
It's a pig to fly against, I can tell you that much.
Not sure if you're asking for list suggestions per se, but with this one, you can still coordinate + bump up a buddy to I6:
Norra Wexley (Y-Wing) (43)
Ion Cannon Turret (6)
Veteran Turret Gunner (8)
Wedge Antilles (52)
Swarm Tactics (3)
Servomotor S-foils (0)
Red Squadron Veteran (43)
Squad Leader (4)
Servomotor S-foils (0)
Blue Squadron Escort (41)
Servomotor S-foils (0)
Total: 200
Or if you don't mind a Medium ship in your squad, trade the Red Sq. X for Benthic:
Norra Wexley (Y-Wing) (43)
Ion Cannon Turret (6)
Veteran Turret Gunner (8)
Wedge Antilles (52)
Swarm Tactics (3)
Servomotor S-foils (0)
Blue Squadron Escort (41)
Servomotor S-foils (0)
Benthic Two Tubes (47)
Pivot Wing (0)
Total: 200
Ive been flying 4 named X-Wings to great success!
Wedge w/Predator
Thane w/Crack Shot
Garven w/Crack Shot
Biggs
with or without s foils, i havnt been using the foils lately because I always forget to open them, lol.
Jan is very hard to replace. So you would need to subsitute that red dice with modded shots.
Dutch and Twotubes seems to be the first glance options.
wedge, thane, Dutch, Twotubes are 189pts, so 11 pts to spend. I think that list will come down a few points on Monday.
Perco on Twotubes, Protons on Dutch would b sweet but propably wont fit eaven after point adjustment.
Swarmtactics is a nice option as well
Propably.

How is garven in the list? Does he usually pass a focus to Biggs or does he want to get shot and pass it elsewhere?
