5 A-Wings with Hull upgrade

By lordrefa, in X-Wing

Did anyone try 5 A-wings, each with hull upgrade?

A lot of fast ships - but not much fire power...

Your second sentence pretty much sums it up.

If, for some reason, you've been dying to run 5 TIE Advanced--this is the list for you!

But probably slightly better considering the dial involved!

Way better dials and cheaper! So much greens on the A-wing.

Even Tie fighters with 2 shield upgrades (assuming that it is possible) costs cheaper than the Advanced. muhahaha

You would actually be surprised how much mayhem 5 A-wings can get into and how long they will stick around. I prefer mine with stealth however.

During a game at Cold Wars, I had one prototype pilot who took out 5 TIEs by himself.

You do indeed always feel like you have the short end of the firepower stick but they are tenacious fighters.

I have tried it, love it.....i play like a rabid spider monkey on Mt. Dew!

Thanx, maybe i should give it a try.

It's almost sad that when the Refit comes out you could run five PS 3 A-Wings with the hull upgrade and still get more that you would with the PS 2 Advances. Guess I never realized how amazing Barrel Roll is compared to Boost, +1 PS, and an improved Dial to justify the difference.

When Chardan Refit is out I would recommend 5 A-Wing Greens with PTL instead of Hull upgrade.

PTL gives the A-Wing each Round Focus and Evade. And evade is per se one shield point.

And the A-wing has the most greens maneuvers on their Dial to have no Problem to loose the Stress every Turn.

With PS3 you would dominate Rookies, Golds, Blues and Academy Ties.

If you want to get higher try a named 4 A-Wing squad.

Unnamed Squadron
98

2 Points left.

Everyone has PTL and Tycho and Jake can Barell Roll and Boost in one Turn.

Loose Arvel into an Green one and you have 4 additional points which can be turned into two Hull Upgrades or 2 times Stealth.

I love barrel roll, but this pretty much sums it up.
