Thoughts? Idea is to be on the offensive and close together. 3po can distract to save luke or someone else in that clutch turn and can give luke the aim and dodge when he needs it. The RT is meant to be a laser magnet.

All in all it looks like a fine list. My only thought would be to drop one of the rebel trooper squads, and try to find 8 additional points to include a sniper team. I find them very useful in highly offensive lists for shooting off standby tokens. As to where to get those 8 points, maybe drop tenacity off the tauntauns? It's up to you, but I think adding even one sniper team would really help.

Wow that seems like a great idea I'll try it out! Thanks!

So i tried this lost last night and i need to say, with luke there, i found leia pretty pointless. Aside from take cover, she didnt really do more than what a generic officer could have done. Also, after playing about 7 games with 3 AT-RTs with flamethrowers, the tauntauns did alot of actions as usual, though not enough damage in comparison. So ive created this list instead, 11 activations, with snipers and some astromechs and a medical droid to keep luke and the RTs going. What do you think?

Interesting. I've found the atrt as a much better buy than the tauntaun as well. All the internet tells me Tauntauns are broken and too cheap. My at rt out-perform them every game. So much that i don't really play the Tauntauns much even though I've got these nicely customised Tauntaun models

I thought i was the only one

I'm looking at running something similar when this isolation ends at my next tourny (after a few test runs).

I was running tenacity on Luke however dropped this to get the list down to 795, as I really find winning the bid helps and no doubt will help even more once the vital assets is available.

The idea is that Luke, Leia and the TTs (hammer) run within range one of each other and the rest of the force cover the rear (anvil).
