I want to try Kavil but...

By demoses, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I have some conditions:

I want to use Fenn...

I really like four ship lists...

I really like the Z-95 with black market slicer tools...

Looking for some input/feedback/jokes...

This is what I have:

Binayre Pirate + Black Market Slicer Tools (13)
Fenn Rau + Push the Limit + Concord Dawn Protector + Autothrusters (34)
Syndicate Thug + Twin Laser Turret (24)
Kavil + Dorsal Turret + R4 Agromech (29

Hopefully not starting another string of "Fearlessness or PtL on Fenn" comments; I recommend you take Fearlessness on Fenn Rau, and change Kavil's astromech to a 1-pointer. That gives you enough points for Lone Wolf or Predator on Kavil, which will really boost his accuracy more than R4 Agro, which is better on Y-wings with BTL-A4.

Whatever you do, don't run the original damage deck. My poor turret went poof this afternoon :(

Kavil

PTL

Autoblaster turret

Vectored thrusers

Unhinged astro

swap the thug for another z95 with bmst or feedback / lone wolf suhlak

run the z95's as close to fen as they can get without cramping him, while kavil uses all those tasty 3 greens + roll to drop 3 dice autoblasters on stuff

Not super competitive, but solid enough:

Fenn Rau w/ PTL, title, flechette torps & thrusters = 36

Kavil w/ Predator, TLT, unhinged & vectored thrusters = 36

Pirate w/ BMST = 13

Pirate w/ BMST = 13

98

Flechette torps are hardly necessary, but at least gives you something to slicer when Fenn is too far away or it would be ill-advised to dive into range 1...

I had a lot of fun with a Torkhil Mux / Kavil + predator combo for a while - because the look on your opponent face when their Ace becomes PS1 for the combat phase and gets blatted by Kavil before they can shoot is great.

What about:

Fenn Rau / fearlessness / title @ 30

Kavil / Dorsal turret / unhinged astromech / predator @ 31

Torkhil Mux with TLT and Zuckuss @ 26

Binayre Pirate with BMST @ 13

By the time everyone concentrates fire on a single ship punched down to PS1 by Torkhil, you will be smiling.

Of course, the return fire will hurt. A LOT!

One up your four ship.
