Leia & Chewie Lists

By BenBot, in Army Building

I’ve tried Super Friends and my main problem is that I’m not great with Hans command cards. I also struggle to fit all three of my AT-RTs into the list! :P

Here is my current Leia and Chewie list as an alternative:

Leia & Chewie w/Officer, 2-2, and (3) AT-RTs (797/800)
Rebels

Leia Organa (90)

Rebel Officer (50)

Fleet Troopers (44)
- Scatter Gun Trooper (23)
= 67 total points

Fleet Troopers (44)
- Scatter Gun Trooper (23)
= 67 total points

Rebel Troopers (40)
- Z-6 Trooper (22)
= 62 total points

Rebel Troopers (40)
- Z-6 Trooper (22)
= 62 total points

AT-RT (55)
- HQ Uplink (10)
- AT-RT Rotary Blaster (30)
= 95 total points

AT-RT (55)
- HQ Uplink (10)
- AT-RT Rotary Blaster (30)
= 95 total points

AT-RT (55)
- HQ Uplink (10)
- AT-RT Rotary Blaster (30)
= 95 total points

Chewbacca (110)
- Tenacity (4)
= 114 total points

Commands: Coordinated Bombardment, Sabotaged Communications, No Time for Sorrows, Brains and Brawn, Somebody Has to Save Our Skins, Assault, Standing Orders

I am usually too scared to get Leia into range two so I’ve included the Officer as a back up commander if Leia gets sniped and as a back side objective holder.

Everything else is run as a block with the AT-RTs up front and the troopers behind. Leia and Chewie usually go with two AT-RTs and some troopers.

I often send one AT-RT and a group of troopers out as a second group.

And the command cards are easy enough for me to use! I struggle to get that Brains and Brawn super shot to work though...

Thoughts?

I feel like it could use two Snipers instead of the 3rd AT-RT but I love them so...

Personally I'd probably drop the HQ Uplinks on the RTs in favor of Improvised Orders on one (or both) of your commanders and Duck and Cover for Chewie since he needs all the defensive help he can get.

Honestly, drop the Officer and the HQ uplinks and get a more useful activation on the board.

Dropping the Officer and HQ Uplinks would give me 80pts to play with. It’s definitely tempting...

I generally run the RTs upfront and the HQ Uplinks have really helped me control activations on crucial turns but I’m open to trying things.

I originally was trying to get Esteemed Leader on Leia but ran out of points.

I’m still more conservative with my heroes than I think I should be. I’ve never gotten more than 1 or 2 wounds on a character even during losses and I think it’s more to do with me not being aggressive enough with them than anything else.

What would you suggest to full the extra potentially 80pts? More troopers? Sniper(s)?

Usually can't go wrong with double snipers, but you would have to drop another 8 points somewhere to make that work. Alternitively another corps is never a bad idea, and you can spend what's left wherever you want 😀

EDIT: Idk if you want to switch up your list this much, but in my experience I have never really felt like I needed another ATRT when I take 2. If you dropped that along with the officer and other upgrades you could probably get two corps, or corps and snipers. I would hesitate to take a list with fewer than 5 corps, the 4 you have now is absolute minimum, imo.

Yea I usually struggle to fit a third AT-RT into any list...

I really like having two Snipers and two AT-RTs like you mentioned. I think meta wise it’s always stronger to have two and two instead of just three AT-RTs.

But I do love those AT-RTs...

I gotta run three sometimes! :P
