Fat Han and Istban

By Rakaydos, in X-Wing Squad Lists

The popular responce to a fat turret is to kill it while you still have the ships to do so- and one of the strengths of fat han and corran is that corran is just as hard to kill.

Thislist expiriments with an attempt to make a "fat Bwing" using Jan Ors to more than double the bwings expected mitigation. As a bonus, if the enemy makes a focused effort to kill han first, he can benifit from Falcon-ptl-Jan with 3po.

I assume this is Ibtisam we're talking about here?

I never liked Elusiveness and while its questionably useful on her, I still think Push the Limit is better. Especially in conjunction with advanced sensors, engine upgrade. Combined with advanced sensors, she can be a tricky ship to pin down, although in a 2 ship build she will come under fire so Jan is not a bad idea. One evade token and her re-roll is still unlikely to be enough to keep her alive for very long though unless you can dodge some arcs, so that's why I feel the ability to boost + BR is clutch (advanced sensors allowing you to end up in some hopefully surprising spots).
