So, what list are you building for hyperspace?

By 97Starvipper, in X-Wing

So yesterday we had some pretty drastic changes to hyperspace. I know that there has been some negativity around it. I would like to see some positive spins on it. If you want to be negative about hyperspace, please go to a different forum post. As a republic player, I am looking forward to seeing how the ETA-2 does. V-wing warthog lists look pretty interesting too. Personally, I see it as an opportunity to build some lists that I normally wouldn't have flown. So, here's one list I'm looking forward to flying in hyperspace.

Eta-2 Actis - •Obi-Wan Kenobi - 49
•Obi-Wan Kenobi - Guardian of Democracy (49)

Eta-2 Actis - •Anakin Skywalker - 56
•Anakin Skywalker - Hero of Coruscant (56)

Eta-2 Actis - •Yoda - 50
•Yoda - Grand Master (48)
Patience (2)

Eta-2 Actis - •Shaak Ti - 44
•Shaak Ti - Compassionate Mentor (44)

Total: 199

What are some of the factions and lists you are looking forward to trying in Hyperspace?

Put an inventory of stuff I am looking at here.

I am thinking Lando with Nien Nunb and Chewbacca crew (86 pts). Add 3x Blue Squadron Escorts (PS2 X-wings) for an even 200 points.

I like that this list is a bit of a flashback to the Han plus 3x Z95 days except you have 3x 2.0 X-wings to back you up! Lando is not Han but he is till PS5 and can pretty freely boost since he has a lot of blue maneuvers with Nien Nunb. If Lando isnt boosting or rotating arc he can TL/Focus with his ability so he can put up really consistant damage as most people probably know. I like that there is room for Chewie to fill out the list, thematically very nice!

right now i'm looking at 6 baron tie V1s, all with ruthless 2 have tracers and 4 proton rockets. and for scum im looking at 5 mining guild ties, outer rim pioneer escape craft with becket crew and predator old terroch

I'm itching to play this shenanigan:

YT 1300 Lando and X-wings

(78) Lando Calrissian [Modified YT-1300 Light Freighter]
(5) Nien Nunb
(6) Hondo Ohnaka
(4) Agile Gunner
(2) XX-23 S-Thread Tracers
(3) Hull Upgrade
Points: 98

(38) Blue Squadron Escort [T-65 X-wing]
(0) Servomotor S-foils
(12) Proton Torpedoes
Points: 50

(38) Blue Squadron Escort [T-65 X-wing]

Lots of ways to give the Xwings locks / double mods.

Soon as I get my Tri-Fighters, I'm going to go a-brewing.

Four 7B Jedi Knights. Probably with Synchronized Consoles instead of 4 points of bid. Are they just Force X-Wings? Sure.

But they're Force X-Wings.

3 7B Jedi Knights and Yoda.

EDIT: only question is, what upgrade does Yoda get? Sense, or Tractor?

A lot 😬 . If I make up a lot, probability states I will have a higher chance of creating something good, but more than likely have just made up a lot of cr.... rubbish.

I love your ETA list, I’m just not buying 4 of them. But I am calling it now, the Worlds ship will be Yoda’s ETA...

I played more or less this list a little while back. A few changes but most notably, Ion Scyks instead of ProTorps. It was alright. Had trouble against some CLT aces and Boba plus Fangs but the list had fair game, even then. Problem I had was just the Fenn issue- when you need him to close out a game, you can't really afford to trade him, which is not very easy to avoid sometimes.

I've struggled to build for Reps so far, but it seems that it's generally gonna be very ETA, V Wing flavour. I'm kind of avoiding V's atm, cause I don't want to buy 3 in order to run a decent generic wedge.

4 ship ace salad, with 1 or 2 ETA, is what I'm mostly looking at. Can't seem to find much room for a LAAT in there.... The one list in my builder is ETAs Obi and Shaak Ti, with Passive Protorp Anakin and Procket Odd Ball. Has tricks up its sleeve, has early punch. Is potentially very squishy. Likely relies on Obi Wan, as usual.

With 104ths back in, the 2x ARC slice of the pie is a very present option again.

Oh and now that I know there is turrets, I can start factoring a Y Wing or 2 back in, without being silly.

I'm not saying it's good, but it's interesting. Coordinate out reinforce on your lead in the first engage, then weird stuff.

My Tri-Fighters have not arrived yet, but been playing this for a few games on TTS. I also play Resistance and Empire but this or a variant of it will probably be my go to HS-list for the next months.
