I've flown the 3x T-70 once and it was solid against a 2xFO/2xSF list. I've never flown an MG-100 before, but it looked interesting.

Drop Pattern Analyser off Poe - he's normally stressed so isn't doing red moves. Giving him R4 astro to clear his stress is essential though, in both lists. (Maybe drop the FCS to afford it? Or switch Primed Thrusters for Pattern Analyser on Tallie?)

Then fly the one you like the look of most. I'd pick the bomber list, so you get to fly it since you say you haven't done so.

In the first list I would drop HLC on Reds to give Poe the R4 and upgrade one of them to Nien. His double mod - no stress combo for me triggers much more offen, then one woild expect and will be easier to do then lining shots with HLCs.

In the second list I would change FCS on Edon for a R4 on Poe. For me the best way of playing the MG-100 with the Veteran Turret Gunner is catching people in the front arc for the double tap. And to use the FCS you have to constantly rotate your turret to keep the locked enemy in your arc.

R4 is not D'Qar legal, only BB8's

Nien is also not D'Qar legal. Only T70's are Poe, 2 generics, and Tubbs

Just like the only legal FO silencer is Kylo and there are only limited MG-100 pilots.

Riiight, D'Qar is very restrictive.

In that case I would go with the second list changing only FCS from Edon for Black One title on Poe. You can consider changing Edon to Finch due to higher initiative. They cost the same, but all generics in this format are ini 3 or lower and Finch has ini 4.
