This is a development of a list I've gone up against a couple times, He used a guri instead of the mandolorian merc. I think the firespray is a far better choice.

It's A Trap!

100 Points

34 points

Kavil Y-Wing

Blaster Turret, R4 Agromech, Opportunist

35 points

Mandalorian Mercenary Firespray-31

31 points

Palob Godalhi HWK-290

Calculation, Blaster Turret, Recon Specialist, Moldy Crow

So how this works is you want kavil to NOT have arc to his target. Palob steals targets focus/evade, kavil spends focus to fire blaster turret, r4's to get target lock, then uses opportunist to get an extra die. 5 die target locked blaster turret shot at your target which no longer has either an evade or focus token. You can't survive firepower of this magnitude. If kavil is killed, mandolorian merc is very good at cleanup duty.

I haven't tried it out yet but might give it a try this evening.

Blaster turret on a y-wing is risky. It works fine until you are up against a list that deals stress or blocks you. And opportunist locks you into straight moves to clear that stress (to shoot again) so a savvy opponent can leave you with no shot at all, and now you have no good options for getting back into the fight (k-turn gives you stress, hard turn 2 takes at least two turns...)

While I'm fine with you putting a blaster on Kavil, I think Opportunist is beyond counter productive. I would put it on the HWK, and with the 1 point remaining, put VI on the Merc. That way you have two PS7s, and can choose which wants to shoot at the rebel captive, and you've also leapfrogged the dual IGs, which is nice.

I enjoy that 5 dice though... So much fun. But it is tricky. But so much fun.
