This weekend we will play a scenario featuring Boba, Bossk and twin brobots ( 200 pts ) vs Fat Han and his friends. Very simple, pure dogfight. Probably Dash will fly with his Outrider but... what can punish the four Bounty Hunters?. Han + Dash + 100 pts of small ships
Fighting the four Horsemen
Boba and Bossk will be quite easy to take down with Han and Dash as they have little damage mitigation and only 1/2 AGI. So, for 100 points, what goes good enough to destroy 2 brobots? Y Wings......
As this looks like a "theme" event of smugglers (non-rebellion) characters, here is how I would build 200 points....
Han Solo (59)
-Determination
-Falcon Title
-Engine
-Chewie
-Lando
Dash Rendar (54)
-Marksmanship
-HLC
-Kyle Katarn
-Outrider Title
-Experimental Interface
Gold Y Wing (31)
-Extra Munitions
-Bomb Loadout (Cluster Mines)
-TLT
-R2 Astromech
Gold Squadron Y Wing (26)
-BTL Title
-R3-A2
-TLT
Gold Squadron Y Wing
-R2 Astromech
-TLT
About the list: If you are given flexibility with crew choices other than what is listed, go for it (for example, on Han add C-3P0 and Gunner). Dash, however, is how I love to run it. You get the free focus, target lock/barrel roll AND the ability to Marksmanship and get crits in with HLC.
One Y Wing is your basic TLT Y Wing, just there to help cover other ships. The 2nd is the stress-hog. Great fun. Finally you have a TLT Y Wing with cluster mines. The truth is you could put just about any bomb/torpedo there. I like cluster mines because they discourage your enemy from following you. However, connon nets are just as painful to hit, but require a bit more skill to place..

use proto to block Poe and horn for sick damage
BB-8 BR, trigger PTL (action) Stress, Green move, Action.
I can't agree with Robots vs Ywings....
Just take a look --> Agressor + Sensor Jammer + Autothrusters + 3 green dice.... --> it's best Ywing counter in whole game.
Try this one mate, I really love those ships as they are really powerful as a team...

4 dangerous blockers - 5 dice Range 1 attacks are scarry for all ships. With their PS1, they can move and block enemy ship + spam Proton Rockets. This is great.
2 Great turret ships. Cheewie is really tough hitting in this configuration as well as quite nice in defence with 2 evades per turn. Outrider is 4 dice turret ship with brilliant movement setup.
Pure fun for me ![]()
Thanks a lot. We decided to NOT play the Episode 7 stuff. Perhaps a mix of Y wings firing TLT and cheap As. More fun that 4 Blue B plus FCS

if you don't like my list above and you like Ywings in the same time...
take 8x Ywing with TLT and R2s .... but you can lose a friend after this game
