While I love the laser cannon,  I don't think I I'd run  more than one especially now that vital Assets is out. For that reason alone e I'd go with the last one but I'd prefer to swap out the mando unit for Sabine as her synergy with these are really good. The jetpack rockets are a bit unreliable in that they could be a godsend against an RT /ST or a tank list but less so if your opponent has no armour,  esp with clan wrens 3red attack.

What does aggressive tactics do on Leia in list 1? All of those units have surges Offensively and Defensively?

List 2

I'd get Uplink for both of your turrets. Issue orders, shoot, recover, repeat.

And i would add Jyns blaster to K2

Then maybe another cheap upgrade to Cassian unless you have to be blue player.

 

In list 3, unless you're running Sabine, is clan wren that much better than a regular mando unit? I'm just asking. Wren has more wounds, but doesn't have the coordinated weapons ranges. What's been your experience?

Was meant to take aggressive tactics off.

 

I've used Clan Wren and when I started being aggressive with them they started smashing face.

 

The rockets are great for troops as well with blast and surging to hit.  Clan Wren took 3 wounds off rex turn one.  If I had the Mando unit as well there is a good chance he would have been toast before doing anything

The jet rockets are great, even against troops.  Blast, surge to hit and you'll usually get all to hit, a tank is a sweater target for sure, but 3/4 or 7/8 red dice coming at anything turn one with a great chance for all to hit, ignore cover, even a cocky Commander in line of sight is gonna have a bad turn 1

Fair enough

cool, I haven't gotten mandos on the table, so I'm super curious how they perform
