Hit hard then arc dodge and plink

Good luck surviving long enough to get into range 1 with all 4 A-wings that have to stay in a tight formation.

This is an interesting list I plan to test out sometime, but my knee jerk reaction is that the 20 attack dice is only for a single turn (reverting back to 8 after that) and it all has to be at range 1. Not to mention the whopping 8 Shields and 8 Hull found in this list. It sounds like an amazing Beta strike list but I fear it doesn't have what it takes to survive. Oh sure, you'll crush a ship or two, then die in the fiery explosion that follows. Not to mention that you need to fly in a predicable formation for Swarm Tactics to work.

Has anyone else tried this list, I am curious if this flies well at all.

My buddy is extremely fond of a 4-awing list, but it's always 4 symetrical green squadron pilots, usually with a hull upgrade, chardan refit, push the limit, and wingman. it's terrifying

Baha, I love it.

now thats funny.
