Testing out my new K-Wing

By RC8015FiSkirata, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So, I'm wanting to try out a team built around a K-Wing outfitted as a bomber, and am not sure how to build or accompany it (given that I want a swarm-y like approach that I've never tried with Rebels before). Feedback on these ideas is appreciated.

I'm currently running Miranda, Poe and two Z-95's. The Z-95's are golden!

Can't help you with the K-Wing/Bomber situation as I run mine with TLT's. Bombs are expensive and on an already expensive ship (for what it can do) they don't really work for me personally. Saying that though, as a recent K-Wing convert, good luck! It's a great ship :)

I'm pretty new to X-Wing, but I too am intrigued by the K-Wing.

I've been considering Esege Tuketu with Biggs and Garvin. Outfit Esege with a TLT then give the X-Wings astromechs. Also considering a Warden Pilot with a heavy bomb loadout, then flying it with some B-Wings equipped with Ion Cannons. Figured that an ionized ship is pretty easy to hit with ordinance.

But my theorycraft lacks in-depth experience with the game. Even if I hit upon a great strategy, my ability to skillfully fly it might be lacking. Even still, I really like the idea of a heavy weapon platform like the K-Wing. And I don't know enough about Coran Horn and Fat Hans to know any better.

My Tuketu "Focused Fire" list looks something like this:

Esege Tuketu (39 points)

Twin Laser Turret

Recon Specialist

Advanced SLAM

Garven Dreis (29 points)

R5-P9

Biggs Darklighter (29 points)

R2-D2

That leaves three points to play with, maybe giving the K-Wing a Proximity Mine or adding a Hull Upgrade to one of the ships.
