Show us your commute lists!

By Archangelspiv, in X-Wing

Hi everybody!

I commute about 40 minutes by train to work everyday at stupid o’clock in the morning and I find myself filling in the time with LaunchBayNext list building. I have created so many that there is just no way I will ever be able to rest them all.

I want to know commuters around the world, what have you come up with while on a train that you have found to be good?

I want to try this list, probably trash but I wanted to see if Holo could throw Focus to Static to get his ability off. Upgrades are not the final product, don’t know if I want Intimidation on a /SF

I don't even commute.

TBF we played stuff like that for serious at the back end of last year. It did pretty well in a couple of Nat Champs I think.

My last commute:

Vonreg - Daredevil, Proton Rockets, Afterburners

Kylo - Hate, Proton Torpedoes

Lt Rivas

Not commute, but purely some time to myself.

Lando - Nien Nunb

Wullffaroo - Saw, Hull Upgrade

Tala Squadron - Crack Shot

Tala Squadron - Crack Shot

What can I say. I've recently got into playing Rebel. I dig the Auzi!

Holo - Proud Tradition
"Scorch" - Fanatical, AdvOpt
"Muse" - Fanatical
"Backdraft" - Fanatical, AdvOptics
Epsilon Sqdr Cadet

Earlier this morning, on the train, mulling about the /ba after flying it last night for the first time...

I make a disturbing amount of lists that never see play

TIE/fo Fighter - •Lieutenant Rivas - 27
•Lieutenant Rivas - Inconvenient Witness (27)

TIE/ba Interceptor - •Major Vonreg - 72
•Major Vonreg - Red Baron (57)
Outmaneuver (6)
Deuterium Power Cells (9)

TIE/sf Fighter - •Lieutenant LeHuse - 49
•Lieutenant LeHuse - Unflinching Executioner (39)
Special Forces Gunner (10)

TIE/fo Fighter - •“Midnight” - 44
•“Midnight” - Omega Leader (42)
Fanatical (2)

Total: 192/200

I'm not sold on lehuse yet but this list would give him some options. All the other pilots need locks or can get them easily.

One of my stupid commute lists.

Which I actually tested, unlike so many of my others. Just wanted to see, if I manage the blocks (Arvel, and the I1 which just blocks with a Reinforce).

Auzitucks are too expensive (of course) for what they bring, but having an Arvel block, followed by Saw with 2 hits and 3 crits is nice. Still lost though :)

(but also stone cold green dice, got 1 evade the whole game)

Arvel Crynyd — RZ-1 A-Wing 34
Marksmanship 1
Intimidation 3
Ship Total: 38
Half Points: 19 Threshold: 2
Kashyyyk Defender — Auzituck Gunship 44
Ship Total: 44
Half Points: 22 Threshold: 4
Wullffwarro — Auzituck Gunship 56
Trick Shot 4
Saw Gerrera 9
Ship Total: 69
Half Points: 35 Threshold: 4
“Dutch” Vander — BTL-A4 Y-Wing 40
Ion Cannon Turret 5
R3 Astromech 3
Ship Total: 48
Half Points: 24 Threshold: 4

Dutch gives Wulff 1 of 2 target locks.

199pts. Maybe better if Wulff has Hull upgrade for more staying power.

  • Miranda Doni (Hotshot Gunner + stuff that counts to 58) 58
  • Rogue Escort (Juke, FCS, R2 Astromech) 71
  • Rogue Escort (Juke, FCS, R2 Astromech) 71

Juke + Regen + Miranda, because who wanted to have friends anyhow?

Because taking meaningful damage really feels like something that should be optional.

I started looking at Leia builds....

Maul (12)
Magva Yarro (8)

7x Binayre Pirates, all with Deadman's Switch, and 5x carrying Concussion Missiles.

Alternatively,

8x Binayre Pirates, all with Feedback Array.

Worst part about this random traffic thought list is that I have enough to run them, and now I kind of need to.

I just realized that you can fit Vader with afterburners, passive sensors, and 4 alpha squadron interceptors.

Or, you can replace 2 interceptors with Fifth Brother Echo. It seems like an interesting alternative to triple Imperial aces.
