I really wanna fly this thing since I saw it. This is my first attempt at a list with it. Lots of action economy from AS and the A-Wing, meanwhile Chopper goes in and does his bump and grind. Probably not competitive at all, but it should be fun!



What I would love to do is a 200pt build featuring all three freighters and the AS :)

Looks good! I'm a big fan of the Chopper Bumper Car and Sabine/Katarn, hopefully the list will do well, let us know =)

However, if you're going to do a 200 point list I'd stick to a theme and make Phoenix Squadron. Hera in the B-Wing and as many A-Wings as you can fit!

oh yea, Hera and B would be a lot of fun!

just a quick idea. A LOT of points in a B, but it could be tons of fun

You know you want to give those A-Wings all Test Pilot with Adaptability just so you can shoot before those pesky Academy pilots...

All in all looks like a good list! I wouldn't give lone wolf to the B-Wing because with four other ships on the board you'll struggle to get consistent use out of it. Swarm tactics might actually be handy to bump an A-Wing up to PS7, or Elusiveness so that you've got a buffer against higher PS aces, receiving a stress in the process that you can spend with Keyan's ability and reliably keep your focus for defense as well.

Can't put test pilot on Proto pilots, cannot put the card on skill 1 pilots. But I like the idea of Elusiveness vs Lone Wolf quite a bit. I'd fly the A's in formation to get them to do their stuff. I've been flying a 4 awing list for a month now and getting pretty good with them. but without actions I think they will die a miserable death really, really, really quickly.

this is another idea based on the same original concept. skill 3 on the A's both negates the Academy Tie shooting first as well as Predator shredding the A's. Jake does his Jake thing, but at PS9 gets really dodgy. OR Drop the Greens back to Proto and put HLC on the B.

Not going to get actions often on the B-Wing since the point is to use Hera to keep the stress in place for the stress re-roll. So I took off the system upgrade and the EPT to add PTL to the Greenies which will up their survival quite significantly. This, we don't care about stress, idea gives me a few other ideas too....

Personally from the first version I'd drop the turret off the Shuttle and give the A-wing Juke to go along side PtL.

Didn't realise the Test Pilot thinger. Oh well, one way to make a fool of yourself :P I'm a big fan of Hera on Ibtisam and Elusiveness in this combo. Have you considered putting Kyle Katarn in with Sabine and PTL? You can do some crazy things with that combo, like say...

Barrel roll, barrel roll, move, barrel roll...

For example. Easy enough to drop the two Greens for an ace or even a cheap Ghost, like...

Lothal Rebel (35)
Accuracy Corrector (3)
Autoblaster Turret (2)
Ghost (0)

Feels a bit wrong running the ghost without its crew, but a three ship list with hard-hitters like Sabine and Ibtisam is a pretty rough combo.

Wave 8 opens up a lot of ideas. and I think Hera on the more expensive B's make them more viable. I know it's still a LOT of points to sink in a B....

check this idea out....

Keyan could also make good use of Stay on Target with Hera on board.

He's already getting enough re-rolls, i doubt Lone Wolf would help that much with his 1 Defence Dice. Especially if you take a 4/5 ship list to crowd him.
