A-Wing list feedback

By KILODEN, in X-Wing

Ok guys and gals,

I am looking to run this list next game:

green squadron + PTL +Chardaan refit + A-wing test pilot + Wingman(x2)

Jake Farrell + PTL + Chardaan refit + A-wing test pilot + wingman

arvel crynyd + Chardaan refit + Shield upgrade + A-wing test pilot + PTL

stress relieving high mobility,

or do you think I should drop wingman for something more offensive?

I don't think you can take 2 of the same EPT on one pilot.

Since your ships are only a-wings I would try to field 5 minimum.

If you drop ravel crynyd and jake's wingman upgrade you can take 2 prototype pilots at 15 points each. Jake Farrell will often not be at range one of your other ships anyway due to his boosting and barrel rolling all over the place.

First off, you can't have the same EPT twice so your Greeny is illegal.

Honestly, you don't need wingman with all A-Wings. There are exactly 2 red, 6 white, and 8 green moves on the dial. You should be able to mitigate stress with little effort. Instead, I would suggest focusing on the main shortcoming of the A-Wing, damage output. Look to things like Predator or Outmaneuver.

There are two Greenies with that loadout.

Generally, offense wins this game. This squad feels like it would struggle to punch through enough before the green dice inevitably fail. That said, looks like a blast to fly! :)

I'd drop all wingman + sheild. Unless you REALLY want to run Arvel, just about anything is better (gemmer, tycho, another green).

I'd put outmaneuver on Jake and one green. Really helps the "punch". Might even take one with proton rockets if points allow.

Cracken + cluster is great for. List like this too. Combat phase positioning is HUGE and 3-4 free actions over the course of a game is pretty nice. 3A2Z?

clarification (x2) means 2 identical green pilots not 2 wingman upgrades for 1 ship.

so that's 4 highly mobile stress shredding awings.

The A is the only ship with more green than white on it's dial so Wingman feels like a total waste in a Awing list. Maybe you can justify one wingman in the list but 4 is just wasting points.

And even with refit and testpilot Arvel isn't good, I'd rather have Gemmer/Jake/Tycho or even a normal green any day of the week.

I tend to give Jake or Tycho PTL and VI and setup my greens with PTL and Outmaneuvre.
