Would this be in any way viable? Fly them in a loose formation. I kind of doubt it though.

Well, it has 40 HP's to chew through, but limited firepower. I'd fly them in a 2 and 3 formation to concentrate fire. Keeping R1 will be a nightmare though. I might even be tempted to use BTL-A4 and attack en masse and use my K-turn so I could fire both weapons in close...
You will need to split them into 2 groups though so you opponent is somewhat forced into R1 of either group.
Edited by EnglishpeteI actually think it might be viable. Maybe give 3 of them the title and 2 without to get arc-dodgers. 3 can throw 5 dice at range 1 with 2 of those being unavoidable. It can hit really hard at range 1. Really hard.
What about this:
3 Y-wings w/ Autoblasters & unhinged astromech (w/ or w/out title)
3 Binayre Pirates
-36 vs. 40 hit points
-PS 1 blockers to box in opponents - force auto blaster shots
-6 vs. 5 ships
-All 3s are green, which opens up a lot of maneuvers for the Y-wings!!!
Thoughts? I am very interested in refining a squad around autoblasters.
not really
If the arc dodgers (well, not "arc" in this case as much as "range 1 bubble) don't get you, boredom will
believe it or not, a guy i played today played exactly this list. it was stupid hard to dodge his range one with them blocking all the pathways and gumming up the works. managed to kill 2 of the buggers and almost kill a 3rd before going down in flames
had the game been timed i would have lost a long time before that as well
it definitely has viability to it

What were you flying? Definitely more pumped to fly it now. At the very least it's never going to get wiped in a 60 minute round lol.
it was a fun scum list i ran with IG-88D, with AS, ID and 3 cartel spacers with manglers
wasn't the most competitive list but it had enough teeth to deal with most things. just not a swarm of autoblaster Y wings it would appear
