Bey, Vander, and Ors

By dtenchi, in X-Wing Squad Lists

ARC-170 Shara Bey 60
Trick Shot
R2 Astromech

Y-wing Dutch Vander 64
Expert Handling
Ion Cannon
R2 Astromech
Veteran Turret Gunner

HWK-290 Jan Ors 75
Predator
Kanan Jarrus
Hull Upgrade
Moldy Crow

Total: 199

Vander hands out target locks. Possible 6 dice forward primary for Bey or 5 out of the rear arc. Or 4 dice primary into Ion Cannon shot for Vander. Jarrus near guarantees cleared stress off of Ors.

Changed number of dice.

I don't trust Shara without some way for she herself to get both her necessary mods, and I don't trust a HWK with a Bullseye ept

Thanks for replying.

What do you mean by both Shara's mods?

I just threw Predator on Jan because there were points left and the list isn't leaning on having the initiative.

I'm also a big fan of Jan, but I'd look at putting Kyle Katran instead. That way at least your action economy with Shara can mean you are improving all of your chances to trigger the Shara's ability.

Also why pick the R2 over the R3 for your astromech? I'd at least look at putting the R3 on Dutch so he can share the double TL with Shara.

Looks like a fun list I might swipe it.

Thanks for the reply.

Yeah. Kyle is really the go-to, but I like the novelty of a potential 6 dice Shara.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like R3 wouldn't trigger Dutch's ability twice since the second target lock is acquired and not a performed action.

You are right, my mistake. Though I’m still a fan of r3 on Dutch.

been trying to work shara in a list as well. Just seem like she needs help getting the focus and tl. So with Katarn and Dutch in theory shara could red barrel roll and still get a focus/tl shot that round.

i do agree that the six die would be sweet

Shara wants both a focus mod and a TL so that her ability is actually worth something. While Dutch can provide her with her TL and she can self-focus, once he goes down, her pilot ability is pretty much void

It wouldn't be totally void. It just wouldn't be set up for her every round. While not ideal she can still TL for a shot for every other round.

For 7 or 8 points, Magva or Saw can make it happen every round. Worth it imo
