One Slick A Wing

By Green Rabid Monkey, in X-Wing

What is the most evasive A Wing fighter build you can make

1 A Wing, no points limit

Jake with PTL and Stealth Device?

Seems like more can be done....

Jake

PTL

Decoy

A Wing Title

Stealth Device

Maybe??

Decoy would imply multiple ships. If were using multiple ships, then wingmates with Draw Their Fire could help

tycho+ptl+test pilot+daredevil+experimental interface+proton rockets = 38 pts.

Tycho, ATP, PTL, EI, Expert Handling. 3 Actions for arc dodging and you shed 1 TL he's picked up before Barrel Rolling

Tycho,

A Wing Title

PTL

Expert Handling

Stealth Device

tycho+ptl+test pilot+daredevil+experimental interface+proton rockets = 38 pts.

I second this but maybe add expert handling instead of daredevil since you can naturally boost already.

if you haven't run this combo yet (proton rockets optional), you haven't experienced the maneuverability orgasm that combining boost and daredevil can provide. it's absolutely amazing. i get what you're saying with the whole expert handling thing and i get it, but this tycho build is capable of stuff that no other ship is capable of and that's where the real value comes in. otherwise you're just a ps8 soontir with less attack and the inability to get multiple focus tokens for optimal turtling.

I've been thinking about APT, EI, Daredevil, and Expert Handling. But haven't seen any situations with Tycho where I've said "I wish I had Daredevil and BR"

yeah, i can't think of any other than for a way to make the stress token stack as high as possible on tycho. lol. boost and daredevil is nasty though. it allows you to weave around things, get arcs on things you otherwise would have no shot at, and essentially do a 270 degree 1 k turn at the end of a manuever. it's glorious. try it out. i'm serious.

Oh I know Boost Daredevil is amazing. But since he was asking for super elusive A-Wings I figured that BR Boost would be Arc Dodgey enough considering the shedding of a Red TL on him. Homing Missiles are scary.

Tycho

Experimental Interface

Push the Limit

Chardaan Refit

A-wing Test Pilot

Expert Handling

The best of the best

no way man, gemmer/PTL/stealth device/refit/title

i went toe to toe with a howlswarm in front and echo to my rear, never took a hit

I was going to mention this exact build, and I'm surprised you are the first one to do so.

5 evade dice with a focus and/or an evade at Range 3 or Range 1 is beautiful.

Although I see why Tycho is popular. The best defence is to escape firing arcs, and Tycho would be unpredictable with such a high PS and the ability to boost + daredevil/expert handling using EI.

Still, Gemmer could boost + evade with PTL as well.

My vote is Gemmer! :)
