Autoblaster Dash can catch alot of people off guard due to its rarity. But with some careful flying and proper use of the barrel roll you can really do some damage. Plus with the Copilot you can force them to spend a focus on a roll that does nothing. Which is plain evil. Miranda can then keep people at range and Conner them into position for Dash. And since he is enemy #1 it allows Miranda to survive till the end game where she is a beast.

Autoblaster is a secondary weapon. How are you allowed to use Hotshot Copilot with Autoblaster?

Gives Dash one turn of tankiness.

4-LOM (36) - G-1A Starfighter

Adaptability (0), Advanced Sensors (3), K4 Security Droid (3), Cloaking Device (2), Mist Hunter (0), Tractor Beam (1)

4-Lom continually takes his action, does a red maneuver, and at the end of the round drops the stress on someone. He often tries to block in order to deny actions as well.

Only thing I would suggest if he's flying like that is to use Outlaw Tech instead of K4. I guess it depends how he flies, but always getting a focus for doing red moves, along with whatever other action you do, then shedding the stress... I wouldn't want to go against it. Plus he gains a point so he can fit Stygium Particle Accelerator on him, giving even more action economy.

I wonder why nobody uses Drea. I took her to two tournaments (with different sidekicks) and she totally destroyed Defenders. Yes, she's fragile, but you have to offer other targets that seem more dangerous or easier to kill. If left alone, she can deal with anything. And PS 5 is very good to handle the countess if you go for an initiative bid.

This is what I use:

Drea Renthal (22)
Twin Laser Turret (6)
Plasma Torpedoes (3)
R4-B11 (3)
Guidance Chips (0)
