Double Silencer builds

By Stefan, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hi guys,

I'm on the lookout for a double-Silencer-build. I've got these two so far, but I'm not really hyped yet:

“Recoil” (59)
Predator (2)

“Blackout” (64)
Trick Shot (2)

Petty Officer Thanisson (60)
Supreme Leader Snoke (13)
Jamming Beam (0)
Total: 200

“Recoil” (59)
Predator (2)

“Blackout” (64)
Trick Shot (2)

“Scorch” (35)
Fanatical (2)

“Longshot” (33)
Fanatical (2)
Total: 199

Any ideas?

I never had it on the table but it looks fun on paper.

Kylo Ren (76)
Hate (3)
Advanced Optics (4)

“Blackout” (64)
Fanatical (2)

“Midnight” (44)
Fanatical (2)
Total: 195

I've been meaning to try this:

Lieutenant Tavson (62)
Targeting Synchronizer (6)
Tactical Scrambler (2)

Sienar-Jaemus Engineer (52)
Proton Torpedoes (12)

Sienar-Jaemus Engineer (52)
Proton Torpedoes (12)
Total: 198

It survived the point increase on torps since the generic Silencers went down. Basic concept it to jam Tavson down their throat and keep the Silencers behind to get torp shots off with coordinates or TLs from Tavson. In practice it seems a bit tricky playing around with it in the simulator.

I’ve put this on the table and it’s super fun to fly.

Blackout - (Trickshot, Ad Optics) 70

Recoil - (Predator, Ad Optics) 65

Quickdraw - (Elusive, Spec Gunner, FCS, PA) 65

Total 200 points

I flew QD and Blackout down the middle and used Recoil as a flanker. QD tanked a few shots and Blackout was in amongst obstacles to make use of his ability and Trickshot. Recoil managed to flank well enough and get around the back of my opponent causing chaos. I flew this list against triple T-70s and went 2-0.

Pretty much any 2 of Recoil with Predator, Blackout with TS, and Kylo with Hate, and then probably a TIE or two, would be excellent. The silencers are all just fantastic

Triple Silencers? An I1, then naked Kylo and Blackout with trick shot and pattern fits.

I’m sure there are better ways to do it.

You can feel free to take out Snoke and you have plenty of options.

I own only two.

I'm not a big fan of flying generics. While the silent twins are cool, I'm very hesitant of only putting two ships with that little health on the table.
