Hello, new to the forums!

Played the AABXX today during a local event. Played twice and finished 1-1. Probably should have been 2-0 but the force became weak in the rolls. :-/

I enjoyed the straight forward play with the low PS and no abilities. The fire power was awesome with the XXB trifecta of justice. the AA gave a great ability to dodge and just harass some of the front line fighters as well as allowing the meat and potatoes of the build to hit some of the bigger ticket items.

Overall it was really fun to play with 5 rebel ships, but may look to switch some elite pilots and slightly lower ship count. There was a feeling of vulnerability that was around and slightly worrying with the five.

Out of curiousity, was the list that won that tournament a B-wing with HLC, a B-wing with an autoblaster, and Garven in an X-wing? Just saw on his thread that h won a tournament of 3 people and one of the squads was an AABXX.

It was. We live in a super small town so the turn out was meh, but yes it was the same that the double B-wing and Garven was at. That match literally came down to the last shots. :-(

Autoblaster eh? thats not seeing much play right now - must have worked a treat on the B-Wing.

You really going to leave off a straight BBBB squad of Blues?

none would be crazy enough to own let alone play 4 B-Wings! ok so maybe there could be one but they would be the lowest of rebel scum and live in the far reaches Outer Rim.

I...

I did really well with a BBBB squad. All with Advanced Sensors. I'm ... not a nice person.

I like your lists , my question is how would you compose a shuttle/ bomber list? I personally only have one shuttle two bombers and two interceptors, I ran those ships and only thing I lost during game was the shuttle, but I let Darth Vader as crew deal some big hurt to my opponent before the shuttle went down, that card was a big game changer, I was playing that at 150pts what would you create at a 100pt lvl?

You could do a Jendon bomber list and pass all your bombers target locks. Ido t know about 100pt games it that combo will be nasty in bigger games.

You know, I would start with something like this:

Omicron Group Pilot (21)

Fire-Control System (2)

Gunner (5)

Engine Upgrade (4)

Gamma Squadron Pilot (18)

Seismic Charges (2)

Gamma Squadron Pilot (18)

Seismic Charges (2)

Turr Phennir (25)

Push The Limit (3)

Total: 100

Gives you the doom shuttle. The bombers are higher PS with lots of hitpoints and bombs, but are low priority targets so your opponent won't realize the danger, and Turr Phennir with PTL should be able to stay out of firing arcs if he survives the first pass. I'll think on it more, so this is just a first pass.
