Welcome, @kempokid.

Falcon looks good.

Lulo looks good (although with Daredevil load out I go all in and use Primed in the tech and Heroic for the #2 talent.

Transport, you might as well go with I1 Logistics pilot for the Leia boat. If you have points, putting her on the I4 with Heroic and using her ability on her own ship seems quite good.

Not a bad idea, actually. Two 2-die ships having potential to have three die is pretty interesting. (Not sure why it posted as 193, in the app it’s 198). Edit: also, R4 on the transport fits in at 200 and is nice to have with all the red moves/actions

Resistance Transport - •Cova Nell - 57
•Cova Nell - Evacuation Escort (38)
•Leia Organa (19)

RZ-2 A-wing - •L’ulo L’ampar - 42
•L’ulo L’ampar - Luminous Mentor (43)
Daredevil (3)
Heroic (1)

Scavenged YT-1300 Light Freighter - •Rey - 94
•Rey - Resourceful Scavenger (73)
•Korr Sella (6)
•Rey’s Millennium Falcon (5)
•Finn (10)

I like Rey lean as possible. She’ll get halved or killed most games. I haven’t found Finn gunner to be very efficient for the points. Rey will burn her force too fast to take advantage of extra blank dice. I would recommend bringing more ships over upgrades. I like the idea of dare devil on lulo. I’ll have to try that myself. Last I think you’d find Finn pilot a lot of fun to play and if he dies he’s cheap. Most people won’t even shoot at him.

I’ve come across very few Rey lists without Finn. Consistently adding an extra hit or evade is super valuable. 10 points doesn’t seem like a big ask to me for that damage output/reduced damage. But it’s something I’ll pay attention to as I try this out.

I have a friend who ran a Transport Pod with 3PO, and Rey with one of the Calculate crew. Cross-map, I1 coordinates on Rey were...they were good.

okay now that’s something to keep my eyes on.

I wouldn't go above 45 with Lulo (heroic + crackshot) due to fragility

Def want autoblasters + r4 on whichever Transport. They turn it into a whole new ship

Nodin' Off

(36) Nodin Chavdri [Resistance Transport]
(2) R4 Astromech
(6) Korr Sella
(4) Larma D'Acy
(2) Autoblasters

(1) Heroic
Points: 56

(73) Rey [Scavenged YT-1300]
(10) Finn
(9) Amilyn Holdo
Points: 92

Total points: 198

Only issue here is haven't tested Holdo. Easily swapped for title or PA Nien

Try Chewie/Rey Gunner with A-Wings. Or throw a pod in there too.

I’m interested to here your take on Finn crew after you’ve tried him. If you have try Rose crew I recommend her, there is always a blank result to spend to acquire a target lock. Then you can action to focus and use force for evaded. Lower ceiling as 5 dice Finn shot but more constant results.
