jonus + bounty hunter

By swampthing2, in X-Wing

Been thinking about this squad today.

BH + HLC + engine upgrade

Jonus + PTL + assault

Obsidian x2

I have surprised friends before by getting a shot turn one with a BH racing up one side then boosting a bank 1 inwards.

The idea is to do the same with the two ties doing a 5 straight just to the inside of the BH with Jonus close behind hopefully adding the reroll.

If I'm lucky all my ships will have a shot but I think unlikely.

If the player is used to this he may set up at the other side of the map but then i can still approach at range, if not flank them if lucky.

I also have the chance turn 2 to throw an obsidian in front of the bounty to cause my own bump to keep at range again possibly.

Biggest problem i forsee is the lack of a focus first two turns with the BH and the fact thdt i will posdibly be possitioning him first, opening him up to a possible alpha strike.

All theory but fancy trying it unless someone has, let me know.

Other crazy thought was either

BH + HLC

BH + autoblaster

Jonus

Or.

BH + autoblaster x2

Jonus + seismic or squad leader

Anyway. Thoughts?

My problem is that if they take out your bounty hunter, Jonus is worthless, assuming he ditched his missiles in an alpha-strike.

I like your 2x Bounty list better, but I'd even go so far as to give one of them an HLC.

Heck, I run naked Jonus alongside Fettigator and an Omicron with an Ion Cannon.

I really like jonus with any firespray. With krassis, you can reroll three dice on a HLC if you can keep them close.
