Cloaked Biggs

By Rogue Dakotan, in X-Wing Squad Lists

so this occurred to me.

Biggs + R2F2 + Experimental Interface

he flies between two YTs, take your pick of which ones, one will probably have to be an ORS.

each of the large ships has a Tactical Jammer.

you should probably also have Dash Crew and Jan crew.

the idea is to keep Biggs hidden in-between the two jammers.

just fly slow and straight the whole way across the board, shedding your stress from EI. Kturn when you get across and repeat.

this means someone might end up on an asteroid. Hence Dash crew.

Biggs should be rolling 4 dice each attack minimum with a focus token. Or an evade with Jan nearby.

this isn't a competitive idea, just something dumb and gimmicky I want to try sometime.

if the other YT is Lando, you can mitigate the bumping that's bound to ensue trying to keep a small base in formation with two large ones

i don't think there is enough points for Lando and an ORS. Formation wont be hard. The idea is to give the big ships 1 forward each turn and Biggs 2 forward.

every turn until you have to Kturn

doesn't the opponent just kite from R2.8-ish - Biggs and other ship out-of-range so shoots nearer large ship.

So I ran this list once:

WSF + HLC + Outrider + Tactical Jammer

Biggs + R2-F2 + EI

Garven

Biggs behind jammer with two focus, hell yeah!

As a formation, I kept WSF in front or towards the enemy (even barrel-rolling to get that position). Won against an 8-tie swarm which was pretty neat.
