Manaroo... What an interesting guy

By Hexdot, in X-Wing

This ship is becoming more and more popular in my area. Equip him with a K4 Security Droid and a RecSpec and you can give 2 Focus plus one TL to Fenn Rau PS 9 Fang Fighter. Not a cheap option at 33 pts but pairing with that Super Ace is simply criminal.

I will pair Manaroo with a Stealth Device equipped Fenn Rau and we will see what happens. 5 green dice at range one looks promising. Any ideas about this?

Manaroo in some ways is better than a palp shuttle and in some ways is worse. Regardless manaroo is certainly a strong support choice but I wouldn't put stealth device on fenn rau in place of autothrusters if you paid me to do it.

Autothrusters might be a better option for Fenn

Better than palp because she dumps an insane full mod onto a ship, worse because you cant change your mind on who got it.

Theres a guy in my area running her and Fenn with adv proton torps. Fenn's ability and Fearlessness really should NOT work on secondary weapons....a reliable 7die hit is utter bs and unless youre an arcdodger Fenn WILL get in your face for the initial pass. Ive tried to juke him so many times only to have it fail horribly.

JM5K has only one crew slot, so you cannot put both K4 and RecSpec. Both crew is good, though. Add an unhinged astromech to the K4 droid.

I'm curious how you'll equip Manaroo with k4 and rec spec. Unless you got a better Manaroo in your jumpmaster than I did

Manaroo, Fenn Rau, adv proton torps... 7hits.

Opppps...then probably I was wrong and PTL was the tool to obtain 2 Focus +1 TL

Manaroo, Fenn Rau, adv proton torps... 7hits.

One of those few mega-combos that actually works.

Manaroo is great with almost everything. Unhinged and K4 droid + focus makes her grant anybody a focus/ target lock almost every round.

I cheat with Rec Spec + K4 all the time!

When did this forum get so bloody hung up on gender politics?

We have threads asking for genders of random unnamed pilots, irrelevant posts about Manaroos gender on a thread about utilising Manaroos pilot ability...

Are we becoming Tumblr?

This lady is right

I might even go as far as to say the only one that really works.

Well, I guess Homing Missile Miranda works ok as well.

Can't use K4 and RecSpec on Manaroo at once. They are both Crew upgrades

MIranda one shotting both Poe and Guri during store champs was a beautiful beautiful thing.

Gotta fly "Manny and the Mandos" to really let her ability shine. For those who do not know manny and the mandos it is Manny, Fenn, and Ol Terry all upgraded to choice.

If you can figure out how to give Manaroo an evade, I would be on board.
