Lytan Dree plus five

By Antipodean Ork, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I've taken this for a couple of spins in the real world, and it works pretty well with my brain.

Lytan Dree plus 5 friends.

It started out as Lytan with tractor and manouvre assist, three Alpha squad interceptors, and two planetary sentinels, one with a concussion bomb.

I lost the first game because a full health Lytan talon rolled off the table (**** those medium bases), and lost the second one because... poor life choices against a really good player.

After some post match chats, I've changed it to

Lytan Dree with tractor and manouvre assist droid and a hull upgrade (45)

3 x Alpha Squadron Interceptors

2 x Planetary Sentinels.

Total 200.

Pre-game trash talk - "Shields are for easy-mode"

Why the mix of ships?

First - practicality. I've only got 4 interceptor models and three alpha squad bases.

Second - having the Sentinels adds a huge degree of unpredictability to where they can end up, making my opponent have to really think hard about how to avoid blocks.
