What squads/ships are you seeing in your area after first points adjustment?

By Greedo_Sharpshooter, in X-Wing

Personally I’m still stuck on the VCX, but I’m also gonna try TripArcs more. Not quite sure what to do with the extra points Rebel crew/astros have given us.

Local Hyperspace mode Tournament Friday had a large number of Falcons from all three factions. The tournament was won by a Vader, Maarek Stele and major Vermail list. I flew a Poe Han list for first time and had a blast with it my only loss was to the above Vader list. I am really impressed with Rey gunner and Chewie crew for resistance.

Big ships and more ships.

Still plenty of Imperials. Still nobody but me on the Reaper tip.

Y-wings everywhere.

Punishers still around, no Bombers yet.

Gunboats have percolated, Advanced coming out of hiding (temporary maybe?)

Resistance And FO are heavy use, Scum has fallen aside, was nearly 50% a month back.

T-65’s have disappeared, but limited sample, and everyone flying Rebels flew them to death last few months so more reflective of people trying to see what else is decent.

Leia is going to be the new hotness. Expect her everywhere.

Two tournaments this weekend.

RAC/Whisper went 5-0 in one. Han/Hera won the other one 4-0.

What was the RAC list if you can remember?

Lar ge ships:

Status = fixed?

Swarms:

Status = still broken?

We are entering a new era...

The Rise of the Generics.

generic ships are good in numbers again. Reducing the points of some key ship types has meant you can put more of them into a list and get ur squad to a critical mass of effectiveness. This is more true for rebels and scum who have access to cheaper Y and A wings now. Thats more guns, more blockers and more opportunities to dish out damage.

rebels can throw lists together like... YYYAAX, YYYYY, Jake+AAAAA

these look fun.

I’m looking forward to playing:

Gavin Darklighter- FCS, R4, Elusive

2x Cavern Zealot X-Wings- s-foils, R4

2x Bandit Z-95’s

Total = 200 points
