Poe with K wings?

By CodPieceZ, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Just curious if this works out:

Poe Dameron (38)

+ Veteran Instincts, R2-D2, Autothruster

Warden Squadron Pilot (31)

+ Twin Laser Turret, Tactician

Warden Squadron Pilot (31)

+ Twin Laser Turret, Tactician

Thoughts?

A friend of mine played a very similar, if not the exact same list in a tournament yesterday. And it performed very well and netted him a third place.

Two double stressing, TLT's are nice, though just be aware that Poe is going to be public enemy number one here. This is a squad that needs to be flown conservatively as it can be difficult to keep targets in range two of the K-Wings. Against aces double (or quadruple!) stress them and fly Poe in to pick them off. Then fly him away to regen shields.

Played this exact list for our weekly Xwing night last week. Beat a Bossk/IG-88B list, and was beating a Wedge/StressHog list before we had to cut short. I really enjoyed flying it. The flexibility of SLAM really adds value. The key is knowing when to stay in the fight for the potential damage and when to SLAM the heck out of there. I agree with the comment above that Poe will be public enemy number one, so if you can bait them into throwing some damage on a K-Wing early instead of Poe, you'll be in great shape past the first engagement.

Good to know it seems to do well

Just picked up a second kwing and this was a list I came up with

I can't help when flying rebels to want to have stressbot/Tactician in my builds now
