forgot to put title in that list

Now, by anti-meta, you mean the worst things available in a 100/6 list, right?

Heff and Miranda roll up, Heff tosses ion bomb, moves and focuses, gets blocks, gets a TL/focus, attacks with Zeb crew. Miranda Harpoons, Ezra stresses. Next round, enemy is iond and stressed if not dead and just rams into Zeb, giving him a TL for another range 1 shot.

I made a squad with Eaden Vrill, Heff Tobber, and Snap Wexley. It was... ok.

U-wing can zip around and attack from rocks, Nora can PTL then clear her stress to dump a lot of damage and the Hawk can deal out stress.

I immediately started thinking of something similar. I won a (small) store kit tourney with a U-Wing. Maybe it'd work again?

You top out at PS 9, but otherwise I don't think it's half bad.

Its a thing of beauty ain’t it? Roll back, bank in... Hey look you’ve barely moved and now have something like 2-3 focus tokens and a possible TL... All the while shaking an enemy TL...

Edit: Actually did really well in a tournament with this list back a few weeks ago, but it was just after a regional, so everyone was flying non-meta. First round was 3 T-65s and a Sheathipede, second was 3 T-70s and a Sheathipede, and I forget the third... The first 2 rounds were cakewalks.

a quad U-wing squad, also known as 4U for short.

The 4U is a pretty big list- it takes up a lot of real estate, and it's extremely painful to deal with them all.

The one with chopper is the Bane of many people's existence, as he always gets his focus.

If I pull you off your stand, would you die?

It would be extremely painful.

You're on a big base.

UUUU

ha, jokes on you. We've got a no name tournament in two weekends coming up. I'm already planning to field a Blue squadron pathfinder with an X-wing and Y-wing as support. I call it "protect the troops on the beach!" (With luck my no name X-wing will be sporting some blue squadron livery... if I can get it painted this weekend.)

I still haven't figured out my crew, but i'm thinking some wookiee commandos might be nice on the old U-wing.
