Finish my Keyan/ Wes / Biggs list

By JRMan, in X-Wing

Playing in a tourney tomorrow and pretty much set on a Keyan + Wes + Biggs list. Here is what I have decided on so far:

Keyan + Opportunist + HLC (40)

Wes + VI (30)

Biggs (25)

I love the 5 attack from Keyan which has focus and TL as long as Wes has the same target. Wes has VI to hit Whisper + VI before he cloaks or to remove TL from opponents with munitions before they get them off. Biggs, as always, is there to keep the others alive a bit longer.

There are 5 points left that I am not sure what to do with. Some of my thoughts are:

Take further advantage of Wes by giving Biggs opportunist to up the offence even more.

Try to keep Biggs alive a bit longer - shield upgrade, R2-D2, or R2-F2.

Try to keep Keyan alive longer - C3P0 or Chewie crew.

Try to keep Wes alive longer - R2-D2 or R5-P9.

Make Keyan a bit more flexible - engine upgrade or advanced sensors.

I expect Wes and Keyan to make it through the first pass (due to Biggs) so perhaps beefing them up more will be more effective than with Biggs. Keyan is obviously the biggest target but Wes is his enabler and is a quicker take-down so I don't know which one to go for if I went that route.

Any other ideas for the last 5 points?

R3A2 on Wes to stress whisper so she can't recloak after attacking. That's two points. Then a Hull on Biggs to just keep him alive that last round.

I would also start calling that your Kayne West build if I were you...

Personally, I would drop HLC and get a Bandit. Fly him way out in front like bait on the first engagement round, and/or use him to block. If they shoot him, great. If not, bandit gets 3 attack dice.

I concur

You could do Draw Their Fire and R2D2 on Wes to help keep both Biggs and Wes alive longer
