Has anyone tried an arcdodgeing....

By smccaughan, in X-Wing Squad Lists

B wing

Keyan Farlandar

PTL

EU

FCS

HLC

My thought is move in and use boost/barrel roll to get out of arc but keep them in your arc. This gives you the stress and makes you unpredictable. I understand for any other B this would not work but since Keyan sheds stress when he attacks the stress does not cause him a problem on the next turn.

Pair him with

Kyle Katarn

VI

Ion Turret

Jan

Jake Farrell

Chardaan Refit

VI

Autothrusters

This way Kyle passes a focus to Keyan and Jan turns it into an Evade. And Jake runs around as Jake can.

Let me know what you think.

PTL works well with Keyan. I'd normally look to take AS instead of FCS since the B-Wing has a limited number of actions on it's bar, but with Jan around you've got a use for a focus token. This could be fun to play but with an HLC and Engine Upgrade he's almost half of your list.

Keyan with Stay on Target and Advanced Sensors gets mentioned a lot as well. Between the B-Wing's Barrel-Roll and having the ability to adjust your move with Stay on Target, Keyan would have a lot of arc dodging potential. The stress from SoT fuels Keyan's ability.

Yeah I was going with what I have available. May need to invest in the YT 2400 and an Ewing to get advanced sensors and SoT. i could also drop the HLC for an Ion cannon and add the A-wing test pilot and PTL to Jake.
