Wedge AAY

By Astel, in X-Wing Squad Lists

So first I made this list with Poe in mind... but since it has been a while since I have flown a T65 I chose going with Wedge. Reason I went with Green Sqd Pilots is so if anyone brought predator they wouldn't get 2 rerolls on 3 of my ships. Then BB8 on the Y was just for shenanigans reasons and was actually pretty fun to do, helping with keeping the Y at a little farther distance and moving the Y out of the way of my own ships. So honestly this list I want to get a little competitive with but I want too much cheese. I have played this list once against Kavil and Bossk and Kavil almost manage to take out my Y with TLT but with the help of Wedge and 1 A Wing we took Kavil out Bossk took out an A wing about turn 3/4 I forgot that the VY666 got not move and that position that A wing right in arc. I was thinking about switching an A Wing with a Z95 but not sure.

Wedge - Engine Upgrade, Predator, R2-D2 (40pts)

Green SQD Pilot - Chardaan Refit (17pts)

Green SQD Pilot - Chardaan Refit (17pts)

Gold SQD Pilot - Twin Laser Turret, BB8

If you could just tweek this list just a bit I think I want to stick as close to this as possible, but go at it.

Poe is 2 points cheaper than Wedge with EU, has the same actions, an extra shield and a better dial. You could spend those 2 points on autothrusters. Granted Wedge is PS 9 and slightly more offensive but Poe is a great all-rounder.

A barrel-rolling Y-wing is quite amusing and will help keep enemies outside the Range 1 doughnut hole. PS 2 makes it harder to capitalise on that though. Tempted to replace BB-8 with a stressbot. I know its a cliche but there is a reason for that?

Minor points aside, it looks like a decent list.

I like Wedge and and Poe, but Poe is always spammed. But I'm jumping between the two. Would a Z95 be an viable replacement from 1 A-Wing?

Sure, just A has better defense and better dial, but if you know Z, you can fly as a blocker or similar easy :)
