Hi,

I am wanting to try out a 2 ship build.

The one ship so far is HWK - Jan Ors, with Determination, TLT, Recon Specialist, Title, Shield Upgrade; (42pts)

Now the question is, who is a better wingman for Jan?

Is it:

1) YT1300 - Chewbacca, Title, PTL, C3P0, Gunner, Engine Upgrade (58pts) OR

2) YT2400 - Dash, Title, HLC, PTL, Kyle Kararn, Engine upgrade (58pts)?

Jan can give the 2400 5 attack dice at range 2-3 (zero at range 1) and 5 attack die to the 1300 at range 1, (4 dice at range 2-3)

Chewy seems more versatile but Dash hits harder.

Your thoughts.

A HWK may struggle to keep up with Dash's huge movement potential, but Dash throwing out 5 dice is very tempting. :-)

Espect Jan to die early with either list though. She's boosting your attack by a fair amount, and is by far the more vulnerable target in either list.

Yeah, Jan will die easily, especially stressed, her moves become super predictible.

Some other cards that can be useful on her:

engine upgrade--makes being limited to green moves less of an issue.

Wired---this works best if Jan is buffing a squad mate with higher Pilot Skill. When she stresses herself, she gets to re-roll eyeballs on all attacks and defense rolls from that point on.

Chewbacca crew---gives Jan better survival than either shield upgrade or determination will do

Since both Dash & chewbacca have lower PS, they won't work best with Jan using wired. Dash can be made to work with veteran instincts, but then he is less effective once Jan dies...

Han solo is an option, but hard to build around Jan...

I don't like Jan costing so much, she's only got 6 hits before she dies and two agility and costs half your points.

She's a awesome with the Tantive in epic play!
