So is this the best Fenn Boats build??

By clanofwolves, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Playing this is sooo fun! I would have called it "Relax and Smash" if I would have come up with it. Anyway, I haven't seen it around here, but the best I can tell it's this:

Fenn Rau, Concord Dawn Protector (1), Autothrusters (2), Attani Mindlink (1)

JumpMaster 5000, Plasma Torpedoes (3), Extra Munitions (2), Boba Fett (1), R4 Agromech (2), Attanni Mindlink (1), Guidance Chips (0)

JumpMaster 5000, Plasma Torpedoes (3), Extra Munitions (2), R4 Agromech (2), Attanni Mindlink (1), Guidance Chips (0)

Isn't it much too easy, to just join the winning team?

Isn't it much more fun to play with some cool ship, instead the ones which are still OP, even after 34656 nerfs?

Either that or ditch the bid and give the Bob boat protorps instead to make the crits easier to find.

Yeah, the boba boat needs Proton Torps...

If I where to take you to the shooting range, wouldn't you enjoy shooting from a tank as well as shooting from some other gun? These ships are a thing, and at some point ppl will want to try em out just for the experience, and fun.

Yes, sadly....it's tough to take off the black, but.....

Once you do you're like, man, so that's what OP is??? Yessssssss!!!!!!!

....Palp/Soontir/Vader ain't nothing in comparison.

.....sadly.

....but nothing compares to that smooth power!!

I suppose it could work. You fuel the boats with Fenn I suppose? Another route to go;

Contracted Scout (25)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Plasma Torpedoes (3)
Extra Munitions (2)
K4 Security Droid (3)
Unhinged Astromech (1)

Contracted Scout (25)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Proton Torpedoes (4)
Extra Munitions (2)
Boba Fett (1)

Fenn Rau (28)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Autothrusters (2)
Concord Dawn Protector (1)

Total: 100

I will be bringing Fenn and two J5K to worlds, after playing them pretty extensively for the past five months. Not going to fully reveal my list ;) But... I will say that a bid is quite important in the mirror match. Also, always always have proton torps and Boba Fett crew on one of jumps to take out TLT on ghost or Miranda, or Latts on Asajj.

I prefer the following as my Fenn build:

Fenn Rau (34)
Protectorate Starfighter (28), Push the Limit (3), Concord Dawn Protector (1), Autothrusters (2)

Unkar Plutt (21)
Quadjumper (17), Cikatro Vizago (0), Cloaking Device (2), Spacetug Tractor Array (2)

Asajj Ventress (45)
Lancer-class Pursuit Craft (37), Push the Limit (3), Latts Razzi (2), Shadow Caster (3)

JM5Ks can be vulnerable to quite a few things. Fenn is incredibly vulnerable to Vader crew, and JM5Ks aren't threatening enough to draw fire away. The above build is super strong against most small-ship builds, because AGI4 (permanent cloak) Unkar Plutt is vicious. Asajj is a late-game threat, but works well as an early-game tank too. Fenn here is the least important ship, but the highest profile one too. I normally keep him ar range 3 until after the first engagement, then capitalise on his tractor beamed foe to get more damage in.

This is an extremely valid point. I have never really played Dengar because of all the hate that Dengaroo had. I own 2 JM5K's...but have never flown them. That's stupid. I have a local casual store tourney coming up, i am flying FenGar... Lets see what happens.

Agree on the importance of initiative. One spot is the EM on the Boba/proton boat. Boba is a one use anyway, it can do bumps after that IMO.

Fenn, Old Teroch, Talonbane

Ptl, title, thrusters, on fenn

fearlessness on Old T and Talonbane

title on old t, slicers on Talonbane

through in a few seismic torps.

good times. (without mindlink, even)

Wow, a mature response, I'm impressed XD (recently was chewed out by someone cause I said I liked to fly k4 on Asaj instead of latz, eventually abandoned the "conversation")

I used to fly Manaroo with Guri and palob. Manaroowas a bumbmaster, palob was control, and Guri did all the dmg lol, was unbeaten in my local tournament. During which I ended up facing a uboat list prenurf, and won. Guri ate 4 torps and lived, the other 2 torps where wasted on palob. After torps are spent they lose their teeth, just gotta know how to out fly them. Sure they're strong, like a brick. But they're also predictable, like a brick XD

Now I want to make a FenGar list. Should be fun.
