Rebel Hyperspace (Han, Ten, & ???)

By FriendofYoda, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I have enjoyed AS Ten and pairing him with nimble Han seems like it might work, but trying to finalize this list.

I am considering adding the Falcon Title, Elusive on Ten, a couple of hull upgrades, or just keeping a bid. I originally had Braylen instead of Arvel, but Arvel gets a lot of work done vs massed Vulture droids/TIE's while also being a genuine threat to aces if they get caught with a block - but I'm open to other suggestions on the third ship. All help appreciated!

Ten Numb — A/SF-01 B-Wing 46
Advanced Sensors 10
Ship Total: 56
Half Points: 28 Threshold: 4
Han Solo — Modified YT-1300 Light Freighter 82
R2-D2 8
Inertial Dampeners 1
Ship Total: 91
Half Points: 46 Threshold: 7
Arvel Crynyd — RZ-1 A-Wing 34
Intimidation 3
Predator 2
Ship Total: 39
Half Points: 20 Threshold: 2


I would keep as is except I would take off ID on Han and give him Chewy, trick shot, and the title. Yeah you do lose the bid war But it makes Han harder to kill (plus Han shoots first...thematic). This is just personal preference though. Plus if you really didn't care about points you could still keep ID on him.

Why not jake instead of Arvel?

Or my personal favorite, Norra Wexley. Just a beefy ship to pull the heat off han

Jake is also super fun, will have to test him but I find I4 to be basically the same as I3 and being able to slam into ships that move before me and still light them up feels great.

I’ve played this again and learned a little more. Elusive triggered 4 times for Ten on average, saving him 2 hp or so. Not a bad deal, but not stupid good. R2-D2 is fantastic and with ID it allows Han to be so unpredictable - felt solid.

I did boost a fair amount with the Falcon so getting Engine in there somewhere would likely pay dividends. Not sure what I’ll drop yet though

Update: I’ve settled on the following, Cassian has helped make Arvel a lot more potent and Engine has made Han harder to pin down (those 3 turn + boosts are so good)

A/SF-01 B-wing - •Ten Numb - 56
•Ten Numb - Blue Five (46)
Advanced Sensors (10)
Jamming Beam (0)

Modified YT-1300 Light Freighter - •Han Solo - 104
•Han Solo - Scoundrel for Hire (82)
•Cassian Andor (6)
•R2-D2 (8)
Inertial Dampeners (1)
Engine Upgrade (7)

RZ-1 A-wing - •Arvel Crynyd - 39
•Arvel Crynyd - Green Leader (34)
Intimidation (3)
Predator (2)

Total: 199/200

I love these guys! But the flavour right here...and still viable...

Arvel (Pred, Int)

Ten (AdSen)

Lando (Nien)

Leaves a whopping 20 points for more. I would lean to Magva and the title on Lando - astounding mods there

So I’ve been playing with this list still and came up with a new variant, one which I think might have some promise

My thinking on the hlc’s is that with reasonable initiative and the ability to br and get mods out the wazoo, the b wings will be able to take advantage and get that extra early damage through that can be so crucial. They also won’t get crits to trigger selfless vs Rebel beef lists

BB Han

(47) Braylen Stramm [A/SF-01 B-wing]
(3) Selfless
(4) Heavy Laser Cannon
Points: 54

(46) Ten Numb [A/SF-01 B-wing]
(3) Selfless
(4) Heavy Laser Cannon
Points: 53

(82) Han Solo [Modified YT-1300 Light Freighter]
(8) R2-D2
(2) Leia Organa
(1) Inertial Dampeners
Points: 93

Total points: 200

(I do wonder if a regen/proton torp Luke would tie in better than Han here though..?)
