Well the idea is....

Both ships fly at initative 5, so you can choose which to move first.

Leia tries to stay on blue maneuvers as often as possible. She has got 9 different blues to choose from, due to Nien Numb.

This way she gets 1 force token, 1 calculate token every round, even if she gets blocked.

Her action could be a boost (engine upgrade) to get out of enemy arcs or target lock, to get some damage on the way.

Dash is a double tap ship. He gets 2 focus tokens, due to Perc. Copilot and he can fire 2 times (on 2 different targets!) thanks to Bistan.

2 x 4 dice attacks... that's not too bad I guess.

Weakness:

Well, it's a 2 ship list. If you loose one ship, you have probably lost the match.

Don't joust large formations. Try to dodge some arcs, use your turrets wisely.

What do you think? Any ideas? Any suggestions?

How about replacing leia with lando, and engine upgrade with cluster missiles? Gives a bit of flexibility with passing actions for more double modded shots, and repositioning to keep dash at range 2 to 3, and the clusters might help with droid swarms, again particularly as it's not too hard to have a lock, focus and calculate? Both stay at i5 too.

Yeah, I'm with Lando. The strength of Leia is that she's essentially 6 points cheaper than Lando, since she doesn't need Nien Nunb. To bring NN, and also Kaytoo (potentially to sling Calcs at Dash), I'd rather skip the middle-man.

I'll also say this every time: Dash kinda needs to be able to deal with stress, particularly Barrel Roll stress.

For the "better" version of this list, I'd cut Engine Upgrade, swap Leia to Lando, and add Expert Handling to Dash. You'll have potentially two actions you can toss around to anyone between Lando and Kaytoo. Lando can often deal with red boosts, since he's on blue moves. I kinda see an average turn maybe being Lando using Kaytoo on himself, slinging a bonus Focus to Dash. Then, either ship will Lock or Boost or Roll as works out best.

• Lando (Nien Nunb, K-2SO) 91
• Dash Rendar (Expert Handling, Bistan, Perceptive Copilot) 107
  • Currently 198, so either 2 points of bid, or Contraband Cybernetics on Dash.

Lando just does the sharing tactics better than Leia.

That said, I think I'd have fun flying this. It'd be a radically different list, however. Lone Wolf and Kanan mean Dash has a lot of passive mods, and can get by with a single Focus action. Kanan is massive flexibility, either dice mods or opening up his entire dial after a barrel roll. Leia is also pretty independent; that's what she does better than Lando, potentially. I'd love to have Engine Upgrade, but her blues aren't bad, and she can probably withstand pulling a white move while stressed, so I'm becoming more inclined to take the title for that Evade option.

• Dash Rendar (Lone Wolf, Kanan Jarrus, Bistan, Shield Upgrade) 118
• Leia Organa (Millennium Falcon) 80

Leia could also be Luke with R2-D2, and a few unspecified toys, but then that'd be even more of a radically different list.
