So how many of you include Wedge in a 100 point list. Luke seems to get a bigger run in our games and Wedge seems to be a cashed up bullseye. Especially if you factor in an EPT and a mech.

A friend of mine runs Luke, Wedge and Biggs. It kind of works. Biggs dodges around for as long as he can. Wedge nukes stuff and Luke chills with R2, knowing he's won the game if he's last man around. It's pretty cool.

If I run Wedge in a build I usually pair him with Biggs. Wedge is definately target #1, so having Biggs makes him survive an extra round or two.

Wedge+Biggs still leaves plenty of points to work with to fill out a squad

either that or make sure the rest of your ships are just as dangerous as Wedge, which is much harder to do

Yeah having 3 scary threats is a very viable option,

Wedge

Ten Numb

would probably leave you enough room to make people really sweat who to kill

wedge is just awesome period. Even naked he is usually a first pick for an opponent to target. You can use that to your advantage, knowing what your opponent is going to do gives you an advantage while playing.

I think Keyan Farlander could really open up these 3 ship builds

Try blue x3, wedge w r2d2 and adrenaline rush.

Wouldn't determination be more useful than adrenaline rush on Wedge? Or even just save the point for an initiative bid?

He would be but since Aces is a bit farther out I was thinking immediate threats

Depends a lot on how you fly, k with action or double k or k followed by a white maneuver can be very important when it needs to happen. The last point is definitely a play style choice

I find myself using an empty Wedge more often than Biggs nowadays. His presense makes him a psuedo Biggs by himself, so the rest of my squad is protected by him already. Adding on to that, Wedge has some pretty fierce offensive capabilities all by himself, so if your opponent decides to choose the less popular decision of ignoring him, Wedge can cause some serious hurt.

I suppose that most players do not understand that the moment you choose to field whatever pilot, he WILL die. You have to prepare your list and flying for that.

I like Wedge a lot, he has one of the best abilities in the game. And the best part is you can ALWAYS use it, there's no prerequisite like being at a certain range, or being stressed or not stressed or something, other than being able to shoot at someone obviously.

I rarely take Biggs or Wedge in any Rebel build. I recognize their usefulness, but they just don't work in how I like to play.
