eibon 30 Posted January 5, 2015 I've got a store championship coming up and need to decide on my list, Im taking rexler and four ties but the combination is proving hard to decide. I will give you my options but any and all suggestions are appreciated: 1.rexler+HLC+lone wolf howlrunner 3x academy pilots 2.rexler+predator howlrunner winged gundark 2x academy pilots (3 points left for either stealth or hull upgrade on rex or howl) 3.rexler+predetor+stealth device howlrunner+stealth device 3x academies personally im in favour of 1 or 3 but what do you guys think cheers.

Biophysical 15,761 Posted January 5, 2015 I think 1 is a great list. I've used it a little myself, but I'm not a super fan of Howlrunner personally because I don't like flying my TIEs in formation. If you like using her, great. I like a variation on list 1 with Howl traded out for Backstabber. You could use the 2 remaining points for an initiative bid or to upgrade a couple APs to Obsidians. It's minor, but nice to have against the swarms of Bandit squadron pilots roaming the spaceways. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eibon 30 Posted January 5, 2015 I'm not a super fan of howlrunner myself but with the point avaliable she seems the best option to get the most out of the ties Thanks for your reply :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rividius 583 Posted January 5, 2015 I ran Rex + Howl mini swarm about a month or so ago. Some observations; 1) I'd give one of them VI so you have at least 1 shot at an uncloaked Phantom. 2) With the HLC Rex has a massive target on his head. He's also not using Howl's re roll very often. 3) I rate hull over stealth device personally. My default Howl has VI and Hull. If you're not sold on Howlrunner, don't use her. You could focus on Rex with the HLC and just use TIEs as blockers. Some suggestions Rex + HLC, VI, Engine upgrade Black squad with Draw their Fire 3x Academy Black squad keeps Rex alive and he dishes out the pain. Academy's block. Rex + Predator 5x Academy TIEs Swap VI and use 2 points for initiative. Mess up the board with bodies. Rex + Predator Howlrunner + VI, Hull 2x Black Squad with Draw their Fire, Hull A Rex/Howl mini swarm. Fly them in formation. The plan is to get to endgame with Rex more or less undamaged.
