Trying to find perfect version of 4 ship Rebel list for hyperspace, post point change. Double tap Y-wings looks like the thing now, as is U-wing- Leya. And Wedge is always good. Thinking removing all stuff from Wedge and upgrading Y-wing to Nora. Is it worth it?

UT-60D U-wing - Partisan Renegade - 47
Partisan Renegade - (43)
•Leia Organa (2)
Tactical Officer (2)

BTL-A4 Y-wing - •Horton Salm - 47
•Horton Salm - Gray Leader (37)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

BTL-A4 Y-wing - •“Dutch” Vander - 49
•“Dutch” Vander - Gold Leader (39)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

T-65 X-wing - •Wedge Antilles - 57
•Wedge Antilles - Red Two (52)
Marksmanship (1)
R2 Astromech (4)
Servomotor S-foils (Open) (0)

Total: 200/200

My version of this list would probably look like this. Still has the u-wing and y-wing core but magva makes it harder to get reliable mods against your y's.

Magva Yarro + Tactical Officer + Leia Organa + Pivot Wing + Crack Shot

Gold Squadron Veteran + Veteran Turret Gunner + R4 Astromech + Expert Handling + Ion Cannon Turret

Gold Squadron Veteran + Veteran Turret Gunner + R4 Astromech + Expert Handling + Ion Cannon Turret

Gold Squadron Veteran + Veteran Turret Gunner + R4 Astromech + Expert Handling + Ion Cannon Turret

So you are trading limiting in rerolls for initiative and pilot abilities? Also expert handling on I3 is not what I could approve as investment.

Nora version of my list.

BTL-A4 Y-wing - •“Dutch” Vander - 49
•“Dutch” Vander - Gold Leader (39)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

UT-60D U-wing - Partisan Renegade - 47
Partisan Renegade - (43)
Tactical Officer (2)
•Leia Organa (2)

BTL-A4 Y-wing - •Norra Wexley - 51
•Norra Wexley - Gold Nine (41)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

T-65 X-wing - •Wedge Antilles - 53
•Wedge Antilles - Red Two (52)
Marksmanship (1)
Servomotor S-foils (Open) (0)

I can this take on the XXYY list this past week with success. I kept the Y-Wings in the vicinity of Magva while Thane kept it loose.

Thane Kyrell (48)
R2 Astromech (4)
Servomotor S-foils (0)

Gold Squadron Veteran (33)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Proton Bombs (5)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

Gold Squadron Veteran (33)

Cool list! How many proton torpedoes are you managing to shoot usually? Any thoughts on swapping the gold squadron’s torpedo for ion+gunner (and maybe intimidation??)

Due to poor dice I was actually getting 5-8 Torpedos off in each game, rolling poorly and then going off to Reload... Had my dice actually wanted to cooperate, it still would realistically have been a full salvo.

I played the following list on Friday at a local tournament (was extended, but it happens to be hyperspace legal):

Gold Squadron Veteran (33)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
R4 Astromech (2)
Hull Upgrade (3)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

Gold Squadron Veteran (33)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
R4 Astromech (2)

Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

Magva Yarro (50)
Fire-Control System (2)
Leia Organa (2)
Pivot Wing (0)

Total: 198

I went 1-1 then had to drop (was late and I had a long drive hoe). I beat a Red Line / Cobalt / Darth Vader list and lost to a Fat Han / Gavin Darklighter list. Much to my chagrin, turns out Magva doesn't turn off Han's rerolls.

I changed the list to Saw, who I think will work better than Magva. I also changed the hull upgrades to swarm tactics and added Norra for team-wide I5. I had to pull the R4 astromechs, which I wasn't happy about. We'll see how it does:

Norra Wexley (Y-Wing) (41)
Swarm Tactics (3)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

Gold Squadron Veteran (33)
Swarm Tactics (3)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

Gray Squadron Bomber (31)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

Saw Gerrera (52)
Swarm Tactics (3)
Leia Organa (2)
Tactical Officer (2)
Pivot Wing (0)

Total: 200

Not sure if I want the tactical officer or a 2-point bid.

Loving seeing these lists.

If you downgrade the Ys to generics and put just Predator on Wedge, you can afford to make your U-Wing Saw with Leia and PerCo, who is stupendous for boosting a squads offense, particularly that of double tapping Ys

I flew this list to a win last Wednesday during league play at my LFGS. I may need to tweak it to be better at more formidable opponents in the future.
