Also, one well-placed block and all of the sudden that Wookie ship eats huge damage from the rest of your list, it's not like they are hard to predict block the 2 hard turn and then crush them.
This.

Flanking is muy importante. Get a ship behind them and start wreaking havoc.
Barrel roll. I find ships with barrel-rolls are better against wookiees as its easier to stay behind them and/or roll out of the reinforced side and still get shots, where as the boost in a single arc ship may not get you shots, only out of arc.
And this. A couple of sensible posts in a thread of dross.
Honestly, what is the point of suggesting list builds against Wookiees? What's the point of suggesting list builds against anygthing? The game is Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock; of course there are hard counters out there, there's hard counters for everything, but pointing them out isn't answering the bloody question, is it? Tabletop strategy DOES NOT EQUAL list tailoring.
To take down Wookiees, you want to get behind them ASAP. They have an 180 arc, true, but no k-turns and no repositioning actions. Get behind them early, dial in moves that'll take you where they were and unless you totally mess up it's pretty much game. Focus fire on one at a time, block or fly into the others to deny return shots, you're gold.
