Saber Squadron Pilot / Adaptibility / Royal Guard Tie - Is this legal?

By Shado, in X-Wing

I want to run a couple saber sqd. pilots with the +1 PS side of Adaptibility added to them. This brings them to PS 5, which should allow them to take the Royal Guard Tie title, should it not?

Is it any different than doing the same with VI?

As I understand dual cards it's not, as you don't assign the side Adaptability is on until setup. As your squad is set before setup, this means your ship is still PS4 until then. Otherwise it'd have to be simultaneously PS3 and PS5.

A single point gets you the Royal though, so I'm not sure why you'd really want the Saber. The fact that you're trying to assign double mods means you're not strapped for points here.

Its a point cheaper.

Not legit.

Blue Five explained it perfectly.

I was hoping to run...

Krassis w. HLC/Rebel Captive

46 pts

Saber Sqd. Pilot w. Adaptability/Royal Guard Tie/Autothrusters/Shield Upgrade ×2

54 pts

Back to the drawing board though.

Thanks for the info fellas.

Drop your Shield Upgrade for Hull or Stealth and you have the points to Upgrade to Royal Guards.

And you can Adaptability the Royals to 7 or 5.

My old friend Krassis Trelix :)

Use him with a Mangler. Trust me.

That's not bad a idea. They'll be able to out PS non-VI Aggressors or they'll move and shoot with Krassis.
