After thinking about the BTL (or 'warthog' as it is apparently known) title for Y-Wings

Looks more like a Chupa-thingy.

R5-K6 *waits for laughter to subside* may be useful on Dutch, as you could have him give out TL's like candy. However this requires several assumptions about positioning and dice rolls. None the less, it would be quite the sight to see this little droid help Dutch give out several TLs

I've been saying this for months.

On "Dutch" in the Chupa-thingy, it actually gives better average damage than Predator.

Maybe not, but you really need some way to modify both shots and that's probably the best way to go about it.

One thing with Drea and B11... if you can set it up right you can just stack up tokens like Tycho by continuously reaquiring target locks. Could well stick you with flying in circles the rest of the game if it fails, but ****...

That would work until you need to switch targets. If Dutch and Drea could be in the same squad it would be pretty sweet.

There's nothing on the card that specifies that you target lock what you're shooting at. As long as you've got something to lock within range 1-3 you can keep it going (assuming you can get the new target in arc without hard 3s/actions).

Exactly. Given that Drea doesn't get an EPT and focus really isn't worth much on a Y-wing; I see little reason to clear stress off of Drea when she can completely bypass the standard action economy by piling on stress. I might forgo the A4 title and just use an Ion Cannon Turret though, to better handle arc dodgers.

I've actually been thinking about buying a cheap shot glass to put all of Drea's stress token's in; that way they won't clutter up the table.

I figured it looked a bit more like a cat, maybe like a Puma?

You mean the Chupacabra, Sir!

How to make the most of BTL-A4:

(1) Add the title to a regular, ordinary Gold Squadron Pilot + Ion Cannon Turret.

(2) Attack things.

(3) Attack them an extra time.

And that's it. You don't have to do anything special or build around it. You do have to fly differently, but that's just a matter of practice.

THIS. This is by far the most efficient use of a Warthog. Firing twice with each ship runs your opponent out of tokens extremely fast, and the ICT doesn't care how MANY hits it gets through so the benefit of a focus/TL is dramatically reduced for the second shot. Since a Y-Wing also does not need a focus for defense, you can use your single action to improve the damage for your primary shot (where multiple hits can cause increased damage), and just roll everything else naked. Even Soontir Fel is going to have a difficult time holding enough tokens to avoid both shots, and if you can fire with a second Warthog he is going to be facing at least one and probably two attacks without any tokens at all (unless he declines to spend a focus offensively, in which case his damage output drops significantly so you still win). Considering that if either of the two Ion shots connect with so much as a single hit it will result in his spectacular death next turn (Ionized + Stressed = Dead Soontir), his incentive is to allow the usually low odds primary attacks to get a point of damage through rather than spend a focus/evade, so that he can use his tokens to avoid the LEAST damaging and most likely to hit shots.

Extra points are most effectively spent on extra Warthogs, and/or additional ships that can take shots against the action-starved victim your Warthog is pointing at.

Blaster Turrets on BTLs are amazingly fun. Im sure its not as efficient as an Ion, but its just as, if not more, fun.

Question about R4 agro and timing with BTL title

So, lets say you are set up with ICT and BTL with R4

You make your primary attack (you happen to be at range 1) you throw 3 red dice, you get eye blank, blank. now, you must spend the focus in order to get the TL, so you now have <boom> <blank> <blank>. my question is, can you spend the TL on the first attck or do you have to spend it on the second attack?

You should be able to spend it immediately.

Yes that's how I read it, as well. Should be available for immediate use.

It's not pink. It's light red.

Now didn't I tell you to stop making up animals!?!?!?

How about something like this?

Garven

Dutch

- Blaster Turret

- BTL

2x Gold Squadron

- Ion turret

- BTL

99 points

Dutch Target Locks, passes to Garven. Garven attacks first, passes focus to Dutch. Dutch attacks, saves focus to trigger Blaster Turret followup, uses Target Lock as needed. The other Ys do their thing. Could be interesting, though a Phantom would eat them alive. Leave one of the golds without the title maybe?
