I was thinking about a Tactician K-wing with TLT.
Eaden Vrill
+Luke Skywalker
Gray Squadron Pilot (PS4 Y-wing)
+TLT
+BTL-A4
+R3-A2
Guardian Squadron Pilot (PS4 K-wing)
+TLT
+Tactician

Here's a fun idea:
Eaden Vrill (37)
+ Gunner
Nera Dantels (34)
+ Deadeye
+ FCS
+ Flechette Torpedoes x2
+ Munitions Failsafe
Grey Squadron Pilot (28)
+ TLT
+ BTL-A4
+ R3-A2
99 Points
You could drop Munitions Failsafe to bump Gunner to Luke Skywalker if you wanted. But with all the Fel's, Whispers, and Auto-Thrusting Robotic Brethren flying around these days I kinda like it as cheap insurance.

You could always replace a Dagger with a Grey Squadron pilot with TLT + BTL-A4 + R3-A2 for 28 points.
It still shoots before Vrill and can stress at any range at least once.

I like the way you think.

This started mostly as a joke, but is looking more and more reasonable all the time.
Anyways, lots of tricks in this list and plenty of area coverage. Should be fun even if it isn't that great.
Jan Ors (36)
+ Twin Laser Turret
+ Veteran Instincts
+ Chewbacca
Kyle Katarn (34)
+ Blaster Turret
+ Predator
+ Recon Specialist
+ Moldy Crow
Roark Garnet (29)
+ Twin Laser Turret
+ R2-D2
Kyle and Jan shoot at PS 12 and 10 respectively. Kyle fires a 4 ATT Blaster turret with focus and reroll at PS12. Plenty of Range coverage with 2 TLTs. You don't have to fly in formation, just be within Range 3 of the other dirty birds.
Also, if you've never tried R2-D2 crew on a HWK-290 then you're missing out. Little fella recharges so many shields throughout a match it just isn't funny. Bit of a gamble though, you sure don't want to flip up that munitions failure crit.
Seems like a lot of fun. I mean, it doesn't have to be top tier to have fun, right?
Remember to Fly Casual.

You could replace the Talas with Prototype A-wings with Chardaan Refit + AutoThrusters (17).
They're faster and have a better dial + boost. They're great little blockers and they even have some turret protection thanks to Autothrusters.
You might also want to consider swapping Adrenaline Rush for Veteran Instincts to bump Jake up to PS9.

Ethan - 32
Outer Rim Smuggler - 27 x2
Bandit - 12

Better yet;
E'tahn - 32
2x Knave Squadron Pilot (27x2)
Bandit - 12
Mystify everyone as to why you bought three E-wings!
(I bought three E-wings...)
I'll leave now.

If you dropped Advance Sensors to FCS, you could put C-3PO on the B-wing.

I also really like E'tahn with a similar loadout. I recently used him with 5 Z-95s. E'tahn was an all-star... the Banditos were woefully inept. I've been thinking about pairing E'tahn with another ace pilot and a generic Blue (or 2 Banditos).
Or give someone an ulcer in trying to kill these three ships.
E'than: PTL + Adv. Sensors + R2-D2
Luke Skywalker: Lone Wolf + R5-P9
Tarn: R7

Three ships in-arc of a Y-Wing all get stressed, and when they all take a greet move they can't focus the Y-Wing and remove it in a single round of combat?Sounds broken for 26 points to me.
First turn, range 3 triple stress on one target. y-wing takes moderate damage. Target is hosed. Have you ever seen an IG or firespray come back from three stress against a competent opponent? I have not.
Triple stress is already going to be a thing with the Hound's Tooth and three Tacticians. It already has a wider firing arc (auxiliaries + Large base). Although with a Range 2 restriction, which isn't that bad considering you don't have to triple stress your own ship to do it unlike the Rebel Y-wing. You could even replace a Tactician with a Gunner crew and potentially dish out 4 stress per turn (or two each on two different ships).

I got the skills to roll 5 green blanks at range 3, when the attacker rolled 3 native hits.
I once saw the mighty Baron get his Stealth Device slapped off by a Range 3 HWK-290 primary attack.
I wasn't even mad, that was amazing.

Back in the Dark Ages of Wave 3, BBXX (AKA, Biggs walks the Daggs) was one of my favorite lists. However; the Phantom Menace soon made such lists a lesson in human suffering (Step 1: Set dial. Step 2: Cry).
I've been tempted to try something like it again except with Y-wings instead.
Biggs + R4-D6 (26)
Gold Squadron + Ion Cannon Turret + R2 Astro + BTL-A4 (24)
Gold Squadron + Ion Cannon Turret + R2 Astro + BTL-A4 (24)
Gold Squadron + Ion Cannon Turret + R3-A2 (25)
Total: 99
The Goldie with the stress-bot could use the title if you want. While the double stress is nice, I find it kinda hard to shed it's two stress. Having some amount of turret coverage is nice. Dealer's choice.
Thoughts?
Opinions?
Words of wisdom?
Life lessons?

Luke Skywalker With Lone Wolf + R2-D2 or R5-P9.

The Y has 2ndary weapon turrets and now the BTL-A4 title that give it utility that transcends jousting (esp ion, ion is to jousting what tire irons are to knees)
I'm making this my personal XWMG mantra.

It's definitely not super competitive, but still fun. Plus I get to use my patented stress-saw shuttle, AKA Stress Bessy.
Omicron Group Pilot
+ Accuracy Corrector
+ Gunner
+ Tactician
+ Engine Upgrade
Kath Scarlet
+ Calculation
+ Mangler Cannon
+ Rebel Captive
Mauler Mithel

Any Decimator (except Kenkirk) + 3x Flight Instructors and Stealth Device.

I think any YT-2400 + Outrider title + Flechette Cannon is pretty terrible.
Extra credit if used on Eaden Vrill.

Jan Ors + Elusiveness + Autoblaster Turret + Saboteur + Experimental Interface
So many unhelpful options for stressing yourself.

Hold Your Ground!
Ever since this card was spoiled eons ago, I have wanted to build a multiplayer deck around it. The basis being that the majority of heroes and allies would need to have sentinel. Dunedain Signal goes on Hama so that after an attack you can dig up Hold Your Ground! to ready Hama for another attack. After you hit 40+ threat it becomes a reusable mass readying event. I thought I would post this multiplayer deck for criticism in the court of public opinion.
Staring Threat: 31
Heroes:
Aragorn (Leadership)
Beregond
Hama
Allies: 19
3x Gandalf (Core)
1x Landroval
2x Legolas
1x Gimli
2x Guthlaf
3x Longbeard Sentry
2x Guardian of Arnor
2x Warden of Helm’s Deep
3x Honour Guard
Attachments: 21
2x The Day’s Rising
1x Captain of Gondor
3x Dagger of Westernesse
2x Rohan Warhorse
1x Raven-winged Helm
1x Spear of the Citadel
2x Gondorian Shield
2x Steward of gondor
2x Sword That Was Broken
1x Celebrian’s Stone
3x Dunedain signal
Events: 11
3x Hold Your Ground!
3x Feint
2x Foe-Hammer
3x Sneak Attack
Any thoughts?
