I was wondering if anyone has made headway with a hyperspace Space Couch list.

This is what I was thinking about:

RZ-2 A-wing - •Tallissan Lintra - 41
•Tallissan Lintra - Deadly Approach (36)
Heroic (1)
Advanced Optics (4)

RZ-2 A-wing - •Zizi Tlo - 45
•Zizi Tlo - Committed to the Cause (40)
Heroic (1)
Advanced Optics (4)

T-70 X-wing - •Nien Nunb - 65
•Nien Nunb - Sarcastic Survivor (55)
Outmaneuver (6)
Integrated S-foils (Closed) (0)
Advanced Optics (4)

Resistance Transport - •Nodin Chavdri - 48
•Nodin Chavdri - Insubordinate Insurgent (36)
Perceptive Copilot (8)
Advanced Optics (4)

Total: 199/200

Gives me a beefy, reliable, coordinating couch, with 3 good I5s

I've had some pretty solid success with this list:

Poe Dameron (68)
Heroic (1)
R4 Astromech (2)
Hull Upgrade (5)
Integrated S-Foils (0)
Advanced Optics (4)
Black One (2)

Ship total: 82 Half Points: 41 Threshold: 4

Kazuda Xiono (40)
Heroic (1)
R5 Astromech (4)
Contraband Cybernetics (2)
Hull Upgrade (5)
Advanced SLAM (3)
Kaz's Fireball (2)

Ship total: 57 Half Points: 29 Threshold: 4

Cova Nell (38)
Heroic (1)
Leia Organa (Resistance) (17)
R4 Astromech (2)

Ship total: 58 Half Points: 29 Threshold: 4

Total: 197

Couple potential issues I can see:

1) Awings want to go fast. Not sure I’d the transport can keep up.

2) If the Awings use their link boost or rotate they’ll be stressed when the transport moves the following round and can’t be coordinated.

3) With optics and perceptive Nodin can coordinate only every other round because he’ll be double stressed if he coordinates then uses his ability.

He might fit better in a block of jousts X-Wings to help give everyone double mods. The transport will have a defensive screen and can hopefully still use optics to plink in some damage. Can coordinate every round with blue manicures and still be able to pull reds and coordinate.

Hyperspace efficient resistance

I really enjoy Cova with Leia+R4 anytime I use it, however I seem to struggle to build a list that fits everything I want/feel it needs when using cova+Leia. 😕

I also have fun using Nodin Chavdri but I have a hard time not using her with Korr Sella or tactical officer since you'll be double stressing yourself otherwise to make use of her ability. For more funsies add in Larma and you can do a red move, coordinate, and focus. But that requires you to go a turn without stressing so more just janky fun, not really worth Larma typically, especially w/o pattern analyzer for the 3 actions in a turn.

The transport feels bad in hyperspace for me because I miss having 3PO and putting 4CO on a falcon or starfortress but that's hyperspace for you. Not that it's really good anyways, but I enjoyed it. Rey boosting before an S turn is always fun.

Yeah originally thought Leia, but then I realized her coordinate is purple so have to burn force for it. Not sure she's worth that much and with the couch being the only ride she has in hyperspace, not sure if she's worth it.

Leia on Cova has been putting in a ton of work for me, just being able to keep stopping or backing up, always having 3-4 dice on target with a focus.

Well typically you're bringing Leia for the ability to reduce a move difficulty on any ship that needs it that turn. You can still do the red coordinate if wanted as well, the purple one doesnt replace the red one.

So Leia+Cova, the reveal is red, but she reduces the difficulty so it's a white and doesn't grant the extra die though right?

It grants the extra die. Cova only cares about the color you physically reveal on your dial. Reveal red, execute as white with Leia, profit.

Heck you can even have R4 Astro and reveal red, make it white with R4 and then blue with Leia if you want.

Whoa... okay, that's something I've been overlooking then. So maybe something like this?

Lots of discussion of CovaLiea in this thread:

TLDR: 3 T70s with her is very good. Looks like 2 T70s + Kaz will also be good.

Been thinking lately about this, giving it a few goes on FlyCasual. It is, unfortunately, extended.

• Cova (Heroic, Leia, R4) 58
• Blue T-70 (Advanced optics, BB) 47
• Blue T-70 (Advanced optics, BB) 47
• Blue T-70 (Advanced optics, BB) 47

About the same overall damage potential as Jess/Bastian/Kaz, but lower initiative. Positioning is a bit more flexible, and those BB Astromechs can do some interesting stuff. Since Cova has R4, she can 1-hard to activate her ability without Leia, and if that's a good play, you can use Leia to help out a T-70, where they can now BB before a white move, or pull a white K-Turn or T-Roll. Or she can just Lock and have a Force for double-mods.

I'm sure going a Resistance Salad is probably better, but generic T-70s are just so pleasant and straight-forward to fly.

Leia does not allow you to BB before a white move even if she turns it blue unfortunately.

Eh, fine. None of the maneuver difficulty rules actually make sense anymore, they're all just cobbled together nonsense.
