Action Hero Lando

By GearHead12, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Idea is that lando can use perceptive co-pilot with jyn to get both a focus and evade in one action using second for whatever suits the situation. Evaan can spend her focus to bring Lando up to 2 evade with a re-roll for tanking. Not sure on ibtisam but had so many points left if AP5 was used instead.

C&C welcomed and highly appreciated

too much spacing

Evaan and Ib are just kinda...bad. They lack efficiency

Agreed, max attack die rolled per turn is 8 with limited mods and def die is 3, 4 with Evaan's ability at max range of 1 from friendly ship. If I am across the table I am focusing ship by ship cuz I know you will fly a tight formation and 1 ship can only evade 2 hits, there will be melting.

My take on your concept

Lando Calrissian — Modified YT-1300 Light Freighter 80
Trick Shot 2
Veteran Turret Gunner 6
Jyn Erso 2
Nien Nunb 5
Ship Total: 95
Half Points: 48 Threshold: 7
Jake Farrell — RZ-1 A-Wing 36
Predator 2
Marksmanship 1
Ship Total: 39
Half Points: 20 Threshold: 2
Gavin Darklighter — E-Wing 61
Marksmanship 1
Fire-Control System 2
R4 Astromech 2
Ship Total: 66

Half Points: 33 Threshold: 3

A and E wings have more action econ. Being they are Jake and Gavin will give focus back as well as increase damage output with loose formations and evade die. My uncertainty with this comes to what EPT you use on the Wings and if Crackshot would be preferred.

Attack die roll per round - 12-13 with moar mods

defense die roll per round- 7 with evades and arc

I am playing around with Dutch and proton torpedoes ( I am working on Hyperspace lists hence a ywing).

1. Dutch moves, takes a focus

2. Lando moves(blue) gives the action to Dutch.

3. Dutch takes a target lock and gives the other target lock to Lando

4. Lando takes a focus as his action.

I have been debating on swapping Dutch out for Magva with tactical officer for some action economy as well.

Could I bother you to see a built list?

Yup, I'm thinking about something very similar, but instead of vet turret gunner and ion cannon turret on Dutch (to make him less of a points sink) I preffer putting R2 astro and afterburners on Wedge.

That is a good idea. Let Dutch so his target lock thing and fire his torps

Wonder if proton bomb and r2 on Wedge would be better:
