Howdy all. First post. I have a store championship next Saturday and I'm thinking about this list.

2 Blues with FCS

Roark with an Ion Turret

Jake with Push the Limit and Veteran Instincts

Strategy: The blues and Roark stay with each other so Roark can hand out that PS upgrade and lock people down. Hopefully that can take care of phantoms. Jake flanks, arc dodges and pesters. Thanks!

I used to fly a similar list in the past...in the current environment of turreted fast-movers (like decked out Outriders and Falcons) if you get out maneuvered, you're toast.

Basically, Roark can't throw out enough Ion's to lock down the big ships (since it takes two) and Phantoms can probably get clear of you.

That said, though, never underestimate that PS12. Saved my butt plenty of times.

Make sure you practice with it...it won't take much to outmaneuver Roark and keep the B-Wings spinning in circles, possibly stressing themselves to keep up. I would also reconsider Jake, but that's up to you.

No chard refit? You'd get a couple more points to be spent elsewhere.

For example, test pilot title and a 2 pts EPT

I've had decent luck with the following variation:

Roark + ICT + Nien Nunb + EU

Green Squadron Pilot + CR + awtp +vi +ptl

2x blue squadron pilot + as

I've toyed with variations on the theme, but this is the base.
