Jake Farrell w/ A-Wing Test Pilot, Chardaan Refit, PTL, Outmaneuver, & Autothrusters

2x Blue Squadron
1x Blue Squadron w/Advanced Sensors

I tank with the three B-wings in the center of the board (where I put lots of asteroids) and have the AS one behind the others so that enemies are given the choice of firing at the others at a closer range or the AS B-wing at a longer range.
Jake flanks and gets behind the enemy to sit on the tail of their most maneuverable ship so that I am in better position for end game.

I like it, but I would maybe go this way.

I have found out predator is just amazing, you will use it on every not perfect shot, where outmaneuver is quite a bit more situational.

the FCS helps normalize damage from 2 out of 3 of your B's, and action economy is always a biggie. I just don't see one advanced sensor a game-changer.

Oh well, my two cents. Try them both out and see how it goes.

I will try out the FCS on the Bs. I love predator as well. However, with Jake's action economy, I find that I can often focus-boost or barrel roll into a good position out of someone's arc and then Target lock. So with focus + TL + -1 agi, I can really put hurt on someone. Also, with 2 dice, it is more rare that I need predator than with 3 dice.

I'm considering the high ps interceptors that will be popping up, being able to focus + evade + boost + barrel roll leaving the focus for defense and have offensive manipulation would be quite helpful.

I agree that predator would certainly be better against the soontir fels of the world. Unfortunately, Jake struggles against them because of PS. I usually have to get the Bs on them early to make it a fair fight.

Might not be what you want to see but...

Get some action economy out of the b wings

I dunno just throwing rocks at houses

Hmmm...interesting. Could make that first strike really solid. Knock any big ships out early.

I also recommend the Proton Rocket for that one devastating hit.

Just ran 3x Blue Squadron with FCS and Jake with Lone Wolf, VI, and thrusters with the title and refit coming out to 99 points. Lone Wolf allowed Jake to run flanker while the B's flew in formation. Allowed Lone Wolf to trigger easily and Jake became an offensive and defensive terror. The B-Wings did their thing while Jake was reliably getting in a couple hits per turn. The VI also helps against the other 9s. 99 points allowed a chance at winning initiative bid and letting the other 9s go first. It flew very well and was the best luck I've had with an A-Wing. Give it a try:

FCS (2)

I like it. I will try it out soon. The Lone Wolf should make it quite nice as well. I don't know about losing PTL though. The focus/barrel roll boost is pretty needed and awesome.

You really need outmanuever on Jakes

3+ agility

Fat Han

Literally anything that can take the evade action

There are quite a lot of things in the game that won't give two ***** about your super expensive tie fighter unless you can start lopping off that green die

PTL + Outmanuever is the standard combination, as are 3 Blues w/FCS that output pretty incredible damage for their cost (possibly replacing a single FCS for thrusters)

Jake Farell (24) really works well with :

PTL (3)

Predator (3)

Autothrusters (2)

A wing Test Pilot (0)

Chardaan Refit (-2)

One of the best !

You want at least one B with him ?

Why not Keyan with PTL, FCS and EU !
