I feel like this team needs little explanation. Started out as a team to test out Lando and works pretty well.

Lando w/ nein numb,

2x Rogue squad E wings with R3, FCS.

200pts

My first thought is whether Leia might also work well. That'd spare the 5 points for Nien Nunb, and get Crack Shots for the E-Wings. There's a few ways to fill the last 3 points (title, hull, contraband cybernetics), but mostly it's about the Crack Shot. Leia's less flexible in her actions, but more flexible in dial.

In terms of support, I'm not sure whether Leia or Lando works better. Lando tossing a free action to an E-Wing can be nice, but he can't do it if they're stressed. Leia helps them when they pull red moves, and that seems quite useful. Being able to have both R3 for double locks, and able to leverage your 1 hard turns seems nice. The hard 1 seems like the major reason R4 E-Wing fans love R4. Now, I'm an R3 E-Wing guy, so I'm not second-guessing that.

Hrm. Maybe I am, but only with Lando. Crack/FCS/R4 is the same cost as the E-Wing in the original list. With Lando's free action he can toss around, having double-locks seems less important, but having white hard 1s might be nice.

No idea what's best, mostly rambling to think about it for myself. These are ships I enjoy, so seeing different ways to put them together is fun.

Hmmm. I'll have to give R4 a try. It makes sense themat you dont need two locks if lando can give you a new one every round. I never even considered Leia as a pilot. I thought about her as crew but couldnt find anything I liked.

She's kinda nice. The force is just simple and reliable, and helping ships pull red moves and still wind up with focus can be nice, particularly on a 3 red/3 green ship like an E-Wing.

I just tried out R4 astro on the Es and K2 on Leia. It was actually quite nice.

Leia giving herself the calc before spending the force in the Es is a neat trick.

Traditional, very powerful Lando list is 200 Lando+Luke+Braylen.

Just jousts an initiative kills things like nuts.

I think you're definitely on the right track with your E-wing configs ( including @theBitterFig crack shot), but I'm leaning towards the answer not necessarily being Lando or even a falcon.

I'd give fat Luke a try, or maybe two named I4 T65s if they can fit (like Porkins and Garvin)

Im curious @Bucknife why you feel the i4 X wings would hold up better than i4 E wings. Just wondering. I have given luke and Braylen a try and it was fun, but I really want E wings to be good. So I figure they are also 3 red dice with potential double mods. Not i5 but i4 isnt bad.

Oh, I meant 2 X-Wings WITH the Es.

Turns out the two I4 T65s don't fit with those Rogues, but 1 and maybe a Blue Escort could.

Rebel Falcon is amazingly good, though.

That third 80ish point of ship can be so many things.

Fat ARC170, fat Luke with Torps, VCX, so I'm intrigued by the EE+ archetype nonetheless.

Definitely want to see where it lands!

Oh. I see thank you for the clarification. Ill see what I can do with those points I tried protin torpedoes on the Es and Norra ARC. Wasnt a big fan. Went 3-2 in a TTS tournet
