This list first started as a fun elite list for home games. I soon noticed that what I first thought would be too squishy of a list was actually very hard to deal with. I have played it in a total of 8 games " all wins",mainly against my friends 4 xwing build, consisting of Wedge with swarm and 3 rookies. This list doesn't give a clear target to focus on. You have Kath that sits on 2 focus and an evade every turn, making her very difficult to kill. Then you have Fell that also sits on 3 action per turn. We won't go into Dark Curse . Your only enemy is a super bad dice roll. To me the list is squishy for tourneys but the results show otherwise. Your thoughts?

Kath,Push &Recon , with a Seismic Charge 46points . "Yes kath simply for the push"

Fel, push ,Royal Guard, targeting comp&Stealth 35

Dark curse, stealth 19

I assume you are proxy-ing the Royal Guard and Targeting computer upgrades

I would have to wonder how much the second focus helps. Reason being that I like coupling Kath with the Rebel Captive. Seeing as it only gives stress to the first person shooting, your opponent would have to either ignore Kath or have his best guy stressed. In the case you gave of Wedge w/ ST, it might not work as well, but in a mirror match, it keeps Fel from shooting you. Plus if they cancel one of your crits, they get double stressed (or triple if they started stressed). It's almost as good as an ion against X, Y, and B wings, since you pretty much know where they're going and can block them with your avengers. Or they can be unpredictable, and keep the stress. Either way, they don't get an action, and at the end of the day, this game is all about actions.

Indeed sir.

The second focus actually helps a lot . During my combat phase. I usually burn one giving me one to use in defense. Or if I'm in a hole and know I will have two ships firing at me I will hold both ficus and the evade. Usually this means my opponent at the least has to hit with 3 shots on Kath to get anywhere!
