Biggs Darklighter is such an awesome ship.

That is all.

I'll admit in all my years playing xwing I don't think I've ever flown him. Maaaaybe once early on.

go Biggs

or go home

I have yet to try R2-D6 and Elusiveness on Biggs, but I'm sorely tempted. I've never seen R4-D6 work, its too situational, so maybe there are better options for our favorite mustachioed hero? Maybe even lowly R2 would get better use for more greens?

Ok then I will go Biggs

You've never rolled blank evades v an opponent rolling 3 or more hits?

Count your lucky stars, I guess

No EPT for Biggs except with droid R2-D6. So unfortunately either R4-D6 or elusiveness

No there's always been an evade, or a crit to ruin the pre-requisite 3+ hits. What about R2-F2 on Biggs?

Sorry I meant R2-D6.

Two evade dice + action is better than 3 unmodified evade dice

Your crutch is showing.

For a single attack yes, but multiple attacks? Focus will be used up after 1 attack. I'm just trying to see if there is a different reasonable build for Biggs.

This past weekend at a store tournament, someone used a VCX-100 with TacJam with Biggs trailing behind or beside, but away from the enemy ships. It made for a fairly survivable Biggs.

The math doesn't work for F2 unless you are taking multiple shots over multiple rounds. Despite the limitations I use F2 often. Just wish he was cheaper.

I've used Biggs a couple of times now, with T65's and a K wing ( 100 point games) I was surprised how useful he was. The K only survived because Biggs took the hits. Did think of trying him with R3.

The math was run out a while back, and it was determined that on an X wing, R2-F2 > Focus on the attack that kills them both. Therefore, it was literally a waste of 3 points. If the ship had more health, R2-F2 would eventually become better than Focus... which has technically happened now since IA has been introduced. But at the same time, the number of shots per round has decreased (since the average number of ships on the board has decreased).

He really is rebel palp at this point
