Been play testing this build and getting solid results. Anyone else trying something similar?

Probably is better to play 4 ships ( Syndacate Thug ) instead of 3 and of course, with BTL-A4 title for 12 attacks in a turn with TLT or 8 with ion turrets.

I will definitely be trying out 4x Syndicate Thugs with TLT and Unhinged when I can, relying more on sheer number of red dice and HP the Y-Wings have. Being able to attack at Range 3 is also a big plus over 4x warthog Y-Wings or 4x Blaster Turret Y-Wings with Agromech, and the green 3 maneuvers really increase the mobility even without EU (though I really do like EU and PtL on Kavil with Unhinged).

So you think the 4xYs is better? I will have to try that out.. I am a big fan of trying to dodge arcs rather then just trying to plow through ships. 4xYs still offers a ton of potential damage on the first joust but it may suffer against high agility ships or fast ships.

During a regional, I saw a decifel losing in Top 4 against 4 Y with title unhinged astro and ion turret, I lost against the same player in the Top 8 and I played two great ships.

then opt for the arc dodging is relative. Of course, with TLT lose the control element of the ions, but become more offensive.

Play more ships as you can is always a good choice, and four Y are better then three ( more hull points, more red dice ecc... )

I think Engine Upgrades on Y wings are a waste of points (withouot PTL) as it takes away you focus or target lock
Karvil with Blaster Turret and R4 Agromech are too nice to waste on a Twin Laser Turret

Karvil has 4 dice when shooting outside his arc, must spend a focus but gets a free target lock for doing it. Twin Laser Turret would give him 2 x 4 dice when shooting outside his arch, use a focus on the first shot so you have a target lock for the second shot
