I have been toying with a casual build that revolves around ships that mitigate, ignore or gain advantages from stress. I have two builds and I wanted to get the communities feedback on how effective they will be and which is better and why.

Build 1:

I like the second concept much more than the first. I worry the list is pretty susceptible to fat turrets though, with all that stress on your b wings you wont be able to move them fast enough to keep up and theres not enough red dice to punch through the damage mitigation. Tycho over porkins helps a little there, and he also really helps against ion turrets, I love that loadout for Tycho though. He's super hard to kill. In a tournament you'd be able to pretty much be guaranteed to get his mov back.

I had such a type of squadron. Keyan, PTL, autoblaster, advanced sensors; Tycho, PTL, ion pulse, failsafe, Blue Sqd, FCS, B-wing/E2, Jan Ors

A lot is sacrificable, especially the ordinance(which knowing now i would replace with things like engine/shield/hull upgrades or system upgrades, but this build is uniquely immune to stress almost completely.

Ibtisam may have an ability that only works when she's stressed BUT I consider that a consolation for the stress instead of something you should actually work on. Because it only works when she has stress Advanced Sensors may not do you much good and she'll need to dump the stress to get any action. If you use her without planning on always being stressed she works as a B-Wing with an EPT.
