Hey guys,

After a 3 month hiatus(!) the K-Wing is bringing me back into the fold(yay!).

I want to fly X's with the one K I'll have as simply put I think they'll look cool together.

What are you using? Suggestions on which X's to use?

Thanks!

I just got my K last night, and scrimmaged out one build so far. I did not think of using X-Wings, because I think better synergy comes with a Y-Wing to share in the TLT goodness. The first thing I wanted to try was a Super Horton TLT build next to Miranda. Seems promising.

The only X-pilot that I can think of with natural synergy with K-Wing options is Garven Dreis with Esege Tuketu.

Although if your K is your feature ship of the build, Biggs could help keep it alive since it's only got 1 green die. However, Biggs won't keep up with it once you start SLAMing.

A horribly boring (but very resilient) combination with Chewie.

This is not a top tier list, but it could be simple and effective. Essentially use the K-Wing as the bomber it is intended to be. Use SLAM to drop a conner net in front of your opponents biggest threat. Then unload on them with three X-Wings.

Instead of the usual BBBBZ, this KBBZ adds more versatility to the very durable list. I start them in formation, then break Miranda off to shoot around behind the opponent. Do they follow Miranda or stick on the BBZ formation? Better yet, do I get my opponent to split their forces. I believe this list will do better against high PS builds as well as being able to joust it out.

I ran super dash with Miranda and tlt...and it was a lot of fun...such a great escort for dash!!!

I may or may not be running Doni with Dash this weekend. Haven't decided.

May I ask what your specific upgrade choices on Doni were?

Esege w/Recon Spec and TLT

Blount with deadeye and Ion Pulse

Ten with Mangler, Adv Sensors, VI, E/2, Jan Ors

Your opponent now has to choose between three very viable targets to remove, but either way, someone is getting hurt real bad the first few rounds of firing.

It was said in another thread, and I think it's good advice.

Pick what you want to do with your K and build for it. If you want it to be a bomber make it a bomber. If you want it to be a gunboat build it as a gunboat.

But don't try do both, because that will make it very expensive, very quick.

I'm excited to run 2 or 3 B's with it. Depends on how many upgrades and bombs I want.

I personally am enjoying running it with EM, seismics, Prox/Conners, IA/Bombadier, and AdvSL. As far as wingmates, I've been sticking to Y and B wings... but I'm not having much success with that. I think that I should go back to playing As and Es, as they can keep up with the slamming K wing. I've also been thinking about running with some X wings for a bit more speed over the B/Y wings, but not the cost of the E wing, and still 3 firepower.

I'm gonna try...

Wanna be obnoxious with her shield regen and I think the non PTL Dash goes with her better. That and I have 10 acrylic shield tokens and like building 10 shield lists.

You know, my first acrylics just came into my possession via a little tournament win. So cool and clean. Now I want to build lists with Evade capability just so I can use 'em.

I think I used the K wrong today The con-net was ineffective and I didn't have any agility so to speak. I tried it with Garvin thinking about the focus sharing, but it only worked out once. The K died to massed firepower from a pair of TIE Interceptors just plain old out maneuvering it and a TIE Punisher tossing missiles and torps around. The blue B-wing I took was also pretty much useless. I don't know if it was just the other guy had the perfect counter to my list or what, but I'm pretty sure I played the K wrong. Made a new build to try and use it just as a gunship and not worry about the bombs...maybe tomorrow I can test it out.

I used doni with extra munitions, plasma torps, tlt, and munitions failsafe.

But I would take out the plasma torps and other things to make her a regen queen. Like chewie or r2....would extra shield work?

She is great with dash...really great.

Well my girlfriend is destroying the above Dash and Miranda list with

MORE KWINGS!

more seriously, I've been running exclusively either

the S.S **** Your Green Dice (Warden Squadron w/ Autoblaster turret, int agent, conners, munis, A-SLAM) with 3 BSPs

or

Miranda (TLT and 3po), Warden (TLT, conners, munis, A-SLAM), Gold (TLT, r4-d6)

Ran Esege Tuketu last night with TLT and Recon Specialist, alongside Dutch with Ion Cannon and R5-K6, and Nera with 'Deadeye', & Torp loadout. They flew around in formation (which is relatively easy givent their dials are fairly similar), Dutch handing out target locks as needed and Esege producing 2 focus a turn that Nera and Dutch could use to attack.

It's a very synergistic build, but it worked as I hoped it would and walked away with two wins for the evening (second one was extremely close though).

I couldn't get BWing since the point total is 100 and I wanted enough attack to be worrying. Sadly the Xwings popped under fire one a turn and Miranda was the last ship I had in all but one game.

Anybody trying Lando crew on a K-Wing? What's a good build for such a ship?

There is no good build for gambling on green dice
