By hey_yu, in X-Wing Squad Lists

With the release Wave 7 and the new core set, I thought putting an updated Dash and Corran build out there.

Corran with the R3-A2 and Wired combo. Dash Rendar with Flight Instructor and Lone Wolf to help with defensive rolls on the die.

Looking for some constructive critiques.

Thanks

FCS instead of EU on Corran. With R3, he's going to be stressed a lot, so an expensive upgrade that costs an action that you won't always have isn't ideal. FCS will always work, no matter his stress level.

I'd prefer recon to flight instuctor. Why not just have a focus for the lone wolf reroll.

The thought process is to have Flight Instructor and Lone Wolf to help out on potential re-rolls for builds with high volume of fire for defense (eg. TLT and Swarms). Instead of having the max potential of 2 focus to use. Also, it's allows me the option to perform a different other focus if needed.

Thanks for the suggestion. Right now my work is in crunch time and I don't have as much time to play some X-wing to test things out. I'll probably try it with the Engine Upgrade first. Original thought process was that I could do a green manuever to shed the stress if I desired and have options of manuevering to make the ship not as predictable afterwards. However, there is always the possibility of building up alot of stress to not use any actions. Anywho, hopefully I can it a try with the configurations.
