Rebel Beef Hyperspace List - thoughts?

By ahdaniels76, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Does this have legs? I'm fairly committed to playing a Rebel list with 4 ships and I like the idea of tractoring opportunistically at highest init so my wingmen can feel like Wedge for the rest of the turn. I love Braylen and now that he and Cassian are legal, they seem like a good combo. Garven and Dutch help with action economy for well-modded shots. Crack shot, Marksmanship, Tac Officer are all optional. Not sure how much bid I need if I want to win the battle at init 4. Curious to hear peoples' thoughts.

Braylen Stramm (47)
Crack Shot (1)
Tractor Beam (2)

Garven Dreis (X-Wing) (47)
Marksmanship (1)
Servomotor S-Foils (0)

"Dutch" Vander (39)
Ion Cannon Turret (4)
Veteran Turret Gunner (6)

Cassian Andor (47)
Leia Organa (2)
Tactical Officer (2)
Pivot Wing (0)

Total: 198

Anyone? Should I ditch the tractor beam and extras and go with Wedge, or will this stand up to swarms and aces? I guess initiative will dictate whether or not I'm playing a blocking game, but I'm thinking if I can stick fairly close together and hopefully joust I'm looking pretty good in most matchups.

I like tractor beam a lot. It is nice to set up shots. I think garden is the weak link though. Maybe replace with Ten? Makes your beef beefier

Delete Garvin add Wedge

Imo, Arvel (with Predator too) or Heff with Intimidation is the best way to make everyone feel like Wedge, and it doesn't make you lose a shot of actual damage as Tractor Beam does
