Biggs Walk The Fembots

By catachan23, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I am sitting here waiting for the doctor to come in a give me the results of my CT to make sure I am still Cancer free now that I am two years out from my surgery, and hopefully finally get my port taken out and be one more step away from having Cancer....

Sooooo, I am list-building to distract myself from the anxiety...

The Accuracy Corrector ensures that you will reliably be able to at least push two damage through regardless of Dice/Token stacks as long as you can keep them in that range 1 arc, hence throwing on Wingman.

Wingman will allow the girls to open up their dials and concentrate on their flying and let the computer do the shooting for them.

Biggs and the "Oh-crap! Bot" are there to shout insults over the radio while looking as threatening as possible so that the girls can get in close.

Is it good? Bad? Anxiety has got your mind filled with Rancor droppings?

Lemme know what you guys think and help keep my mind distracted while I wait for the doctor.

Thanks!

So I have my first follow up CT on my cancer in a couple of weeks, what are you using to build with, your phone? I may do the same. Fingers crossed for you to get a clean scan.

Yeah, using my phone. How far out from your Cancer are you?

Any Thought s on the build?

I had surgery to remove a clear cell renal carcinoma in November, luckily no chemo or radiation required yet. I am hoping for an all clear on my scan so we can just focus on monitoring.

I am a relatively new player so I tend to ask for more opinions than I offer, but I will say I have been looking at 3 attack ships with the AC, both the B wing and E wing.

I posted an E-wing build here: https://community.fantasyflightgames.com/index.php?/topic/145525-corran-builds-best-setup/ but I have been thinking about B-wings so they can keep their actions for barrel rolls or a defensive focus. I also thought about Jan Ors crew to score an evade or recon specialist to get 2 focus token to help with multiple attackers.

How does AC interact with autoblasters? If it makes the 2 hits from the AB undodgable I may have to try that.

I hope so for you too man, for you and me both actually! Frak Cancer!

I saw that thread and it was actually what inspired me to think about Accuracy Corrector on the B-Wings, and yep, the Accuracy Corrector with the Autoblaster would result in two uncancelable hits as long as you can keep them at range one.

The Wingman in the build is to help keep the B-Wings on their prey's tail.

Frak cancer indeed. 1 in 3 get it I just happened to get mine 20 or 30 years early than the most. All in all I am very lucky regardless of the diagnosis. Good luck.

Hmmm that autoblaster idea might be worth stealing.

I love this idea. Please tell me how it works! hahaha.

Hope your results are clean.

Is AC and Autoblaster combo really worth it? I mean its one more point than an HLC. I think I'd just rather roll with an HLC.

Its an interesting idea, but keeping stuff at range 1 can be a lot more difficult in practice. Also, you aren't using either pilots ability at all and in fact Wingman is counter-synergistic for Ibitsam's ability. Honestly, Keyan is probably a better option to run, then you can take Wingman off Nera and run something else. It kills your name though...

Sorry to tear your list apart. Good luck with it and the cancer!

I was kind of wondering about the pilot abilities. What about using blue squadron pilots and then you can have some other ships for support.

Cancer free! Time for a beer to celebrate!

I was less worried about the pilot abilities as the EPT slot so I could throw on Wingman. The point being is it allows them access to every maneuver on their dials every turn and allows them to chase down ships that a non-Wingman B-Wing would be unable to keep in arc.

Biggs is there to do what Biggs does... die. Die, but allow the B-Wings the time they need to burn down a few ships unmolested.

I appreciate the responses and I'm definitely gunna review it when I get home and see if I can improve it. Any other suggestions are always welcome.

Congrats on the clean scan.

What about something like this? No cool name but good blockers and same unavoidable hits.

Blue Squadron Pilot (22)
Accuracy Corrector (3)
Autoblaster (5)
Blue Squadron Pilot (22)

Autoblaster (5)
Green Squadron Pilot (19)

Thank you. Scanxiety sucks. Since my CT came back clear I will be getting my port out tomorrow!

I like your list too. The extra ships are nice and I will give them both a try this Thursday on X-Wing Night.

Glad to hear your ok catachan! Here's a wee idea for you,

Ten Numb+AC+AB+VI+hull

Blue Sqd +AC+AB+hull

Airen Cr +Wingman+hull

100 pts

A pint to your health! Slainte!!

actually yeah. Autoblaster + AC is 7 points. You're going to simply get more damage off HLC anyway. Go with those. Sorry. Still, it should be a fun casual list
