Hey! Just looking through some of the salvaged astromech options out there and remembered R4-B11. The card is attached.

He has that awesome Zuckuss (crew)-like ability that i would love to play with on the table.

Anyone have any ideas on builds that include him?

You might get the most bang out of it if you put him on a scurrg... Other than that? I dont really know, there are too little ships that can take salved astro's anyway...

Drea in her Y-wing is the normal pick if you want to get this droid in your list.

Dalan Oberos (Kimogila) functions pretty well with R4-B11. If you pair with Deadeye/Chips/Harpoon, you average 4 hits+crits on an opponent that can't spend tokens and has to reroll any evades. With EM+Enforcer you have 36 points of pain.

I have heard this idea before and like it but just seeing what else is out there.

If only there was a ship that could hold crew (K4 security droid) and an astromech (R4-B11). That would be awesome. We HAD one . . . Then it got nerfed.

One more thing I want to note about this build. I can't say I am the hugest fan of the title and EM on this guy because of the reload action. Do you think those are a necessity? Trying to cut points where I can.

The title is really helpful, I've found. Not as much the EM (I build it more for all around utility, that build is floating around in like 4 different posts at this point but I can put it here if you want). With the higher PS Meta going on right now, the Title really makes the K good in my opinion. By which I mean that your generally getting outmanuvered and stuff. The higher PS beats even Torani with VI and can choose where it wants to go.However, with this title, some good positioning with the K and a good plan, you can make them go where you want them to go. Obviously they will still move out of the way, however if you set up your ships so they have a hard place to go, and pin them with the bullseye, you can make them go from a bad position to a slightly less one, still getting shot by one of both of your ships, rather than dodging your K and mowing you down from behind.

Just my opinion. I really love the list I have set up (and its actually pretty competitive when I don't hit stuff) and the K is actually really good, at least with what I've played against. Automatic stress is always good, (especially for cheaper with no negative effects for you like R3-A2) and it makes lining up the bullseye so much sweeter.

Best,
