Sorry if this has been asked. I tried to search and didn't find this specifically.

I believe an Inspiring recruit on Keyan in the bwing can be used while using Keyans ability when shooting.

Keyan "removes" a stress when attacking to change eyeballs to hits. Inspiring works on a friendly ship at range 1-2. Keyan himself meets the condition, correct?

Absolutely. Just add Rage and fire away!

Yup, unlike some other abilities that one straight up says "Remove" so it works. Some others use a synonym so people argue it doesnt work, even though theres no defined difference.

I understand why people get picky... when the rules say that "Roll" and "ReRoll" are not the same... everything can be argued on...

Why did I not clue in to Keyan and Rage and Inspiring Recruit until today? Granted, I probably won't win any competitive tournament with it, but it just sounds darn fun to try.

Yeah, it's fun, but not competitive. To make it better, you'd need to either give Keyan multiple attacks per round, more green dice (for modding with Focus), or another useful way to spend a Focus token. With just Rage on Keyan and nothing else, you end up with a spare Focus token at the end of most rounds that you don't have much use for.

It does avoid the trap of making him too expensive, though.

I ran Rage Keyan with Hera and FCS. Funny how many times people forgot about Hera, and ended up with a K-turned B-Wing on their backsides at R1 with a innate focus and TL.

Is the FCS not a little redundant, given you're already getting rerolls off Rage?

Not every round however. If you pull a green and clear both stress; sure Rage again. But otherwise, you'll still be stressed and Hera gives you the freedom to move and FCS guarantees the rerolls. You could probably drop it and save two points; but the way my dice treat me....

Meh. I don't care if it's competitive or not. I play to have fun. I gave up going to anything above a store championship long ago.

I just think it's a fun list to run, now that I clued into it.
