And he is asking why he attempt yo drop a TL with a Focus action.

That's not what the original statement was saying though.

RoV

Corran in a heartbeat.

I've had great fun flying them both together. Double regen running at 95 or 96 points guarantees you the initiative in most cases.

Had a hilarious moment at a store kit recently when I put my ships down and realised I was facing the mirror match with someone who had opted for the 91 point build. The Scottish meta can be quite crazy at times!

When wave 11 drops I will be running "Blackout" with Poe R2-D2, Intensity, AT, Primed Thrusters, B1.

Yes, that would be with BB-8. You were responding to Ohnoezz, who was talking about running BB-8 so you could switch from VT to PA. That would allow you to BR, PtL off that, move, clear stress, then do another action. In fact, in that scenario you wouldn't even use the PA. But it would help on the red moves or when you don't activate BB-8

Yes, I know that - thanks :) But I thought that there is another combo, without BB-8. Pattern analyzer allows you to move your check pilot stress step, so that you may resolve perform action step before that. So I understood, that you are allowed to perform a green manouver, than take your usual action, use PTL for a second action, receive stress and then go to the check pilot stress step. And get rid of the stress from PTL.

I didn't notice the hereinabove combo... if it is even allowed. Is it?

Yes. If you have pattern analyser you don't really need BB-8 purely for action economy - arguably R2 Astromech + Pattern Analyser + Push The Limit is as effective, because that gives you a green hard turn.

I've used R2 Astromech + Pattern Analyser + Daredevil Snap Wexley a few times, and that guy can seriously hoon around the board.
