XXYY List (without Biggs or Wedge!)

[Nyxen 1,605]

Garven Dreis

 

Red Squadron pilot

 

"Dutch" Vander

-Ion Cannon Turret

 

Gold Squadron Pilot

-Ion Cannon Turret

 

total 100 pts.

 

I'm still not sure how I would array this list in formation, but I'm leaning toward putting the Y-wings on the outer edges  while the X-wings stay in the centre. That way I can discourage flanking while still getting Garven and Dutch to focus/TL each other every turn until one of them blows up. Thoughts?

Fly the squadron and see how it works for you and if it's a fun combination to fly with - then let us all know how you got on

I have flown this exact list and though it is not "the list to end all lists,"  it was fun and can stand up in a fight.

 

Garven and Dutch are pals for sure!

I have had good sucess with a similar build:

Garvin

Dutch + Ion Cannon

Blue Squadron Pilot

Blue Squadron Pilot

slightly more total hit points at the loss of the second IC but ive never been a huge fan of IC so Im a little biased.

GL with whatever you choose, Dutch + Garvin is always a good starting point

This list with r5k6 on Dutch was the squad I ran when i got second out of 19 players at a store championship. Was a very effective combo.

Ooh, I'd try that with Tarn Mison (once he's out) instead of the Red. Same points, but fits nicely into the theme of target locks and focus everywhere.

I've flown this list with a Rookie instead of a Red, and used the spare points to buy R5 units for the Y-wings. It can be very, very effective.
