You got Han which is now one of the best ships in the game, with two very good ships that have lots of action economy.

Clever use of Leia to avoid needing AdSen on Benthic!

I think Lando would be better than Kanan on Han - that leaves room for Hotshot Gunner too!

Imagine green Sloops/Talon Rolls/Stops with Kanan/Leia. Also, Kanan’s Force plus ability practically giving you Engine upgrade is really good. I’ve played dozens with Lando for Hyperspace and Kanan with Extended, Lando is fine. But minifocus plus Engine and ability to be dash is just so much better.

Thats...a very compelling case

I'm totally missing the engine upgrade part. Can you elaborate. Thanks.

You’ll be stressed cuz you boosted. Any maneuver on your dial except reds will now clear the stress with Kanan.

Also, now with Leia literally any maneuver will clear the stress if I activate Leia.

Put lando on han instead of jyn is my suggestion

With Kanan I’ll be target locking or boosting most of the time. The evade is when I’m getting shot at multiple times and most likely force/evade/rerolls should be enough and this allows me to token stack with the X when it gets shot at multiple times.

I can't wait to try this out. I played a somewhat similar list with Han and 2 x-wings and I loved Kanan.

If you were to modify this to work with Hyperspace, what would you do?

I’m probably going to be using this version for Hyperspace. You lose out on Jyn, but add more action economy to Han. R2-D2/Inertial is key for Han in the end game and he’s much more in the scrum with this build than an arc dodger.

I played a game with this list tonight. It did very well and I killed two-thirds of my opponent's list before he conceded. I didn't get into hull on Han (due to good dice, ranged bonuses, and LOTS of evade tokens provided by Lando) so R2 didn't make much of a difference, but Leia was clutch one turn of the game and the Tubes bros. did good work. Can't wait to play again.

I would add Tactical officer to this list since you have the points for it. Also can you cut R2-D2 and run Wedge instead of Edrio. I understand the focus action is strong with Benthic passing over, but most of the time you want to pass to Han anyways. If you do Wedge, you have a heavy hitter and you can throw him focus.

Benthic hardly coordinates though? Plus no room because crew slots taken.

I started with Wedge and a Partisan, Wedge I don’t like very much. He dies to quickly and doesn’t take much.

R2-D2 Crew is gold. The win condition in the list is kill enough for Han to “solo” the rest of the list. Which he can do because he’s an end game monster.

So I was looking at this list today and I went two ways with it after I made 1 change. I went to a generic U Wing pilot, and opened up space for either Wedge with proton torpedos, or I would go Luke Skywalker. You want to be coordinating with the U wing to move the Falcon or the X wing into arc dodging positions and lining up the proton torpedos. So as of now, you focus to pass the focus to another character... instead you could coordinate and choose to focus (same outcome) or you have the option to boost, roll, target lock, whatever you need to do that turn.
