This is dumb! xD

I think I just might of found a wing-mate for my Luke build with the R2Fu droid:

Luke-skywalker.png + R2-F2.jpg + Wired-0.png Or Predator.png

Heck, Might even dust off Porkins and see if he is up for a good scrap! Or just throw R2D2 on an E-wing and call it good.

Now the real question is, who gets lonewolf? :P

Luke gets Lone Wolf and D2, Porkins gets left in the bin, and you spend the 30 points on something better. Wedge with Crackshot or one of the other 1 pt ones maybe? VI If you want to beat ACD.

But I find the greens on an X-wing to be too limiting for good old D2. Maybe I need 2 coresets, and take another T-70, for the auto-thruster shield recharging capacity...

D2 exists to work with Luke however. They synergize perfectly. Turns him into one survivable little bugger.

Silly question: I've been playing X-Wing non-competitively almost from the get-go, and I've never understood exactly why R2-D2 and Luke work so well together. Please enlighten me!

It just makes him really resistant to damage. His ability makes it likely that you'll get at least one evade result every time you get shot at and then R2-D2 lets you patch up a shield every round. Playing with just the core set, it is almost impossible for Luke with R2-D2 to lose to a pair of TIEs if he can get one off of the board quickly.

Hadn't thought about NOT putting the hull regency droid on porkins, BB might be a good choice.

The Luke one won't work unless you have a way to stress him out and you don't want to be doing K-turns as your only maneuver.

Now the Poe with autothrusters. Well its a T-70 so yeah consider him the next Darth Vader (only they fixed Darth Vader not replaced him)

Just add experimental interface to luke

Whenever a little baby TLT Goldie gets upidty or won't finish peas, mommy Miranda scares them straight with stories of Poe Cameron.

"Eat your peas or you'll never get past thrusters."

"Drink your milk or r5-p9 will make everything you do useless."

"Go to bed or else poe will get you with boost!"

(Poe's gonna be a thing :) l

Not sure if terrified or amazed.

oh, don't worry. Poe's just a little story Miranda uses to scare her Terrible Little Toddlers. He's not real.

...right?

Can Poe use his pilot ability to change an eye to a hit, THEN spend a focus token to change a blank to a hit with guidance system?

Poe with Lone Wolf, Auto Thrusters, and R5-P9 shreds TLT Y-Wings. The only thing is you must never NOT have a focus token on Poe. Talon roll and you are in trouble.

Our group has been flying against (4) TLT Y-Wings as practice and Poe is a beast against them. The pairing of Poe and Luke has been working very well.

The other list killing (4) TLT Y-Wings is Howl Runner, (3) Avenger Interceptors with Auto Thrusters and either Back Stabber or a Tie/fo.

The K-Wing builds with Miranda are next for later this week.

Poe is a top tier pilot.

Don't you dare "xD" at me god damnit.

VI, EU, R3-A2 and Wes Janson say "hello"

That would make Luke 1 less point than the Poe Build or more expensive than the Poe Build.

Just a rough estimate but I think Poe would have the better dice probability in both green and red dice giving Poe much better Jousting value. Not to mention a better dial. X-wing don't do too well when restricted to green moves and if stressed you won't get that 3rd dice.

Yes, he can, but then he doesn't have a token to use his ability on defense or to get a shield back.
