4 A-wings with Jake and Tycho

By Tommy5446, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Hello I could use a little help with a 4 A-wing list. I using it for casual play. Here is the list I played last night.

100 points

Jake Farrell 39pt

PTL

Proton rockets

Autothrusters

A-wing test Pilot

VI

Tycho Celchu 37pt

PTL

Proton rockets

Autothursters

A-wing Test Piloit

Outmaneuver

​2 Prototype Pilots

Chardaan Refit

I played against Brobots and won but failed to get Tycho out of firing arcs. I was wondering if outmaneuver is worth it on Tycho or should I go with lighting reflexes and put one autothrusters on one of the prototype in hope the can last a little longer. It was a fun team to fly I can't wait to fly it more.

I would agree that outmaneuver isn't worth it on Tycho, since he can't really arc-dodge like Jake.
Depending on what you have in your collection, consider the new EPT 'wired' from the new core, or wingman (from Z-95 expansion) on Tycho.

Agree. Consider losing Outmaneuver, and gaining Wired, Lightning Reflexes, Crack Shot, or even Adrenaline Rush to turn your K-turns into white for a round and catch your opponent by surprise (K-turn and then PTL boost+focus!). Test these out and see which you like best. (I personally would probably go for Wired)

Don't forget Daredevil! Any of the above will also give you a 1-2 point initiative bid for your high PS guys and blocking with the low PS ones. I do want to try 4 A-Wings soon!

If you want Outmaneuver in the list I'd rather put it on Jake. Otherwise this'd be an interesting list to try

Tycho

- PtL

- PR

- Title

- EH

- EI

Jake

- PtL

- PR

- Title

- VI

- Autothrusters

2x Prototype

There is not enough points to do the real Psycho Tycho, but EH should help his arc-dodging a bit as well.

Otherwise you can also switch the Outmaneuver for VI and up the Autothrusters to Stealth Devices. PS 10 should help Tycho a bit as well.
