A Wing and auto thruster?

By thebigeb2589, in X-Wing

So did anyone else overlook the fact that A wings can take auto thruster? I was making a casual list for fun when I realized it. Will the A wing see more play now with AT? Will an Awing swarm be slightly more affective? Will individual Awings be more affective? Thoughts

Effective not affective....

well it will affect their performance :P

what effect it will have overall, though...

Anyway, no one really "overlooked" the capability. It's just that A-wings are 2 dice ships (bleck) that are already defensively capable. Tacking on 2 points makes it harder for them to make a points relevant contribution and seems slightly redundant with their excellent defensive profile.

The only place I could see it working is outmanuever + ptl Jakes. Idk if it's worth a B-wing's FCS though (28 points Jakes, 3 blue squadron pilots with FCS = 100 points)

Yeah it's not news it's just A-wings even post aces are still lacking in punch.
