In my list I have Corran Horn with R2D2 and three points left to add something. I am wondering if the stealth device (with its bad reputation) being used on a ship with 3 base agility and an evade action (so becoming 4 dice + evade) is a better option than a hull upgrade for the same points. I can see that with more hull you have more chance for R2D2 to regen a life saving shield but four defense dice and an evade ability seems more likely to keep you at full health for longer.

What do people think?

I like Stealth Device on any ship with three evade, hull upgrade is better on ships with two evade.

That two hull is really one of Corran's only weakspots. If you have 3pts to address that, I'd say go ahead. The regen horn is about hit and run tactics, get in, double tap, fly off and cheat regenerate all your shields. if you had another point, I'd strongly recommend EU, but failing that, I guess a hull could work quite nicely, especially with Wampa about to hit the table... Stealth, not so much. I'd rate it 3rd place out of 3, between EU, Hull and Stealth...

Well assuming OP has Corran naked except for Artoo, then Push the Limit or Veteran Instincts and Fire Control System are better uses of the three points. Personally I'd go for the VI/FCS combo

Thanks for the feedback.

I'm running Corran in a list I have to try out the K-Wing (I bought two and havent flown them yet!)

I have nicknamed the list "Double Tap" because I am trying out Corran and 2x Wardens with TLTs, so double attacks all round!

I'm hoping that with SLAM the Kwings will be pretty manueveable to escape enemy arcs and Corran can strike twice then retreat to regen shields. I know it doesnt have a lot of synegy or combat tricks but I hope it should do consitantly high damage each turn that the enemy is just ground down before they can remove my ships off the field.

In that context I think I may try FCS/VI idea as I like getting a target lock off Corrans first attack to use in his second

Ah i see, yes indeed, if you don't have an ept yet, that definitely takes priority over hull. VI/FCS, as displaced has said, is great on Corran. Good luck with the list!

Turns out this list was no good at all! Possibly I haven't flown the K Wing enough to use it properly but with Corran 's double attack using up his attack for the next turn and the SLAM manuever stopping the K-Wings firing, my opponent was basically attack twice as often as I was! Not surprisingly I didn't win! Might try this list again but be more conservative with Corran's ability and try to SLAM less.

I like Corran as a pilot but the first time I used him I was doing far too much of the 'double tap'. Save if for either if you are in range one or if you have a chance to finish someone off. And FCS comes highly recommended.
