Fine tuning rebel squad

By polmoneys, in X-Wing

I've got 29 points left on a 4 ship squad. The core is:

###############

Tycho+ Daredevil

2x Rookies

###############

Thoughts:

1/ Wedge (first to die...)

2/ 'Dutch' +R5-k6 + Proton Torpedoes (tank + sinergy)

3/ Luke+ Veteran Instincts (better against swarms)

4/ Kyle+Blaster+MC title (love 360°, 2 points left for EPT or initiative)

5/ Blue + HLC (I want to try HLC but without FCS or PTL seems too unreliable)

6/ Jan + Nien numb + Squad leader (Rookies get +1 die + action)

What would u fly?

TIA

I don't know what's "unreliable" about the HLC without FCS or PTL. I mean you're rolling 4 dice at range and so what if you have turn the occasional crit over and into a hit you're still throwing down 4 dice and at range 3 your opponent doesn't dodge any better than they would at range 1. If you miss you still can use it next turn (assuming the target is at range) unlike missiles which NEED to hit.

I'd fly Dutch with R2 Astromech and Ion Cannon Turret.

if u have Push the Limit id go....

Tycho+ Daredevil Push the Limit
2x Rookies
Kyle+Blaster+MC title + Recon Speciaist

I feel 7 points on low initiative/AGi ship shooting without TL+Focus is not the best use of HLC, I can be wrong.

like it!

Daredevil is my new fav upgrade with Tycho, he is a reliable game closer ;) As for kyle ain't too much both Recon and title? maybe I can take only the title and stealth Tycho...
