Cheap Farlander

By Ywingpilot45, in X-Wing Squad Lists

If anyone likes to fly Farlander, I found a cheap way to use him.

Keyan Farlander (29)

EPT: rage (1)

Cannon: if you have the points, HLC (7)

Mod: B wing E2(1)

Crew: inspiring recruit (1)

39 is still not cheap, but it's a start

You don't have to use the HLC. So this build, with out the HLC is 32 points, and still effective.

I love that build, I use it pretty often when I fly Keyan. My other go to is;

Keyan: stay on target and Hera crew for 33 points. It's not the greatest thing but it's super fun to fly.

I had someone make a bit of a mess of one of my lists with VI & Advanced Sensors Keyan. Advanced sensor to TL or barrel roll, perform a red manoeuvre and use the stress as a focus. Rinse and repeat. Really makes the most of a rubbish

Add FCS and you can just maintain fire until someone dies or the enemy flees.

I think my favorite build is Advanced Sensors with Stay on Target. It's amazing for attacking and reacting to anything with a lower pilot skill. I can have Keyan barrel roll, take a target lock or focus with Advanced Sensor and then change his dial with Stay on Target to get that stress he so desperately wants. When using Stay on Target I find myself picking the most unlikely 2-speed maneuver that I will need in order to react.

It's a fair priced build at only 34 points but believe me this will demolish anything with a pilot skill lower than 7.
