outlaw tech. Do we dig him?

By Scoundrel, in X-Wing

Ive been flying Outlaw tech on my 666´s since forever but lately I've been putting OT on palob to grant him a bit more mobility. It works decently. What about putting him on other ships?

I can't stop thinking that he would be good on uboats. the 4 kturn and the red sloop would now allow for tope launch too. could be huge. could be irrelevant. anyone tried this?

and how about putting outlaw tech on the g1? is he worth it?

4-LOM (27):

  • Stay On Target (2)
  • Fire-Control System (2)
  • Outlaw Tech (2)

Total: 33 pts

Oh, yeah. We dig it.

But counting on red maneuvers is something only a few ships aim for (mostly the YV-666). Considering the lack of mobility from HWK and G1, I think you nailed where most likely the OT will feel at home.

He loves G1A and YV-666s that are being built cheaply by giving them what amounts to Advanced Sensors lite when pulling their reds.

Jumpmasters and HWKs have better things to do, though I guess an outlaw on a HWK wouldn't be an inherently bad pick; there's just usually something tastier.

My greatest sorrow is that he doesn't count on Inertial Dampers.

I've found him solid as a filler on the YV-666.

Yes, love that little Jawa. Especially on the Trip-6.

Jawa and Dengar on a 666 makes for a particularly brutal stop maneuver.

Never thought of the G1A since it's one crew slot is so precious, but it makes a hell of a lot of sense.

Jaws filthy little creatures only good for target practice.

I can't abide jawas. Especially because they make YVs do unpredictable things when I'm trying to shoot them! Yes they've been used quite effectively against me, exactly where you anticipate them.

Love it on the YV-666 to grab that focus on the 0.

One of the best Scum crew. G-1A and YYV-666 are the best places for him. Works so well.

When I run my triple slaver list, he always makes it onto at least one. Always fun to pull the space brakes, cause a jam up, and still get a focus.

I run 666s with the Outlaw Tech and a K4 Security Droid for maximum action fun times.

Now there's a combo I'd not thought of for 4-LOM. And for a point more you could give him Adv. Sensors to maximise actions prior to using SoT.

Love him to bits on the Firespray as it leaves the ship with no bad manoeuvres.

I had 2 points spare on a list with one I-Boat and popped Outlaw on him. Great to be able to k-turn or loop right and still shoot your torps.

I've run him on Bossk with K4, RecSpec, and Calculation, which caused no end of headaches for my opponents. Free actions on both red and green made him fantastically versatile. Outlaw Tech is definitely a winner on that ship.

I love Large Scums in 200+ point games. If I run two Agresors, two FS 31, and two Y 666, I ALLWAYS equip at least one because diversity is part of the fun for me. And Y 666 and this Upgrade are like bread and ham, a good combo

Guys, I have a question about this card. Can any faction use it? It's a crew upgrade and says "Small Ship Only". Nothing restricts it to S&V.

Eh? It says Scum Only. Limited.

I'm not sure RecSpec works with outlaw tech. Outlaw Tech assigns a token, but RecSpec applies when taking the focus action.

This. Essentially AS on reds or stressless PTL on greens. Love it.

****, you're right! I really have to quit doing stuff late at night. Or get better reading glasses. Or both!

It doesn't. RecSpec is there for when I'm doing whites or greens. K4 and RecSpec into a target lock and two focus with Calculation off a green. Does some nasty things. OT is there to just keep the action game live.

Of course our little Outlaw works on the trip 6. Take the wings off, puts treads on it and what does it remind you of :huh:
