I mentioned this squad in a couple other threads, figured I should post it here. Shine Gavin on a target and have the B-Wings flank, and the enemy will be eating uncancelable crits like nothing else. Doubly so if the Blades get their bullseyes lined up. Shieldless swarms and medium/large bases really won't enjoy the barrage of crits, and aces have to keep on their toes to avoid crits that rip through any defenses.

Gavin can drop Marksmanship for Crack Shot or a 1 pt bid. Marksmanship on the Blades makes the bullseyes really dangerous, and gives them a reliable means to utilize Autoblasters even without Gavin.

I like your thinking!

Also, ships will employ more repositions just to stay out of bullseyes which means less mod actions done by your targets. Let us know how it does.

You need to spread out a lot to improve the outflanking, yet move into R2 to use the autoblasters, right?

I would love to know more about how to fly this list properly.
