So one day I brainstormed 4 Bs with mangler list, and found its 104 points
So I searched for way to make it cheaper, like you know, maybe, add Ethan
. With E-wing he can keep up with Bs (1 forward, barrel, choice of 3 or 4 K makes it quite good at positioning behind wall of B's. List is simple - 3 Blues and Ethan leaves you 2 points for upgrades. If you have transport you can give Ethan R-A2 and spread some stress love. If you don't, like me, you can give Ethan Wingman, for clearing those poor Blues from stress, or something else.
Just mangling, no cannons
I am gonna try this list, but with r5p9 for etahn, just for survivability since he will be the main target. This puts list at 100 pts. Take out a b and put in a x wing, and it's an even 100 pts!
always been a fan of etahn so i'll give this a go too.. after regionals
I came up with this the other day. Haven't tried it yet, but it does alleviate the Etahn as the main target issue.
Etahn (32)
Biggs + R4D6 (26)
2x Rookie Pilot (42)
Switching X-wings for B-wings makes you loose of maneuvers, with E+BBB you have 4 ships capable of barrel roll and 1 forward, so perfect for close range dogfight
