Convinced me that this is a bad idea... My next HS in in 18hr...

Obi-Wan Kenobi (47)
Delta-7B (19)
Hull Upgrade (7)

Ship total: 73 Half Points: 37 Threshold: 4

Anakin Skywalker (Y-Wing) (60)
Proton Torpedoes (13)
R3 Astromech (3)
Hull Upgrade (3)

Ship total: 79 Half Points: 40 Threshold: 5

Luminara Unduli (43)
Calibrated Laser Targeting (3)

Ship total: 46 Half Points: 23 Threshold: 2


Total: 198

...I was going to suggest R4 over R3 (generally how I prefer just about any ship), but I forgot that Anakin’s ability isn’t just off of red maneuvers, it’s just “after completing a maneuver” that he can destress, no? Pretty similar to Kanan’s ability, really, just with a different timing/cost, obviously. Huh.

I’d drop the hull upgrade on Obi for a bid or for regen R2. Otherwise report back how well it works! Good luck

Hmm, one thing I recommend is switching who has 7B and Calibrated. At I5 Obi will have a far easier time lining up the bullseye, plus his ability goes nicely with it.

Also Anakin is gonna be the one who takes damage the fastest and your opponents main target. Maybe Regen since its cheap for him, especially on rounds you may Reload anyway.

“its”

ditch the Hull upgrade on Obiwan for an R2 unit, otherwise go for it and let us know how it went

R2 instead of hull.

idk how Luminara helps, but if you wanted a hard to catch ace, Mace?

I still feel like you might as well go for a few more points and go 7B Anakin...

I would honestly love to know how the I6 Y-of-doom performs on the table. It’s so freaking expensive that I hesitate to try it myself, but I can’t deny that it might have potential!

I'm looking at Anakin in a Y-Wing as well but besides R4, I believe Instinctive Aim is stapled to him if your running any type of torpedoes, it opens up that action bar further.

Yeah idk what the point is here. It’s cool af. But I think for 10 more points I’d rather have youngling killer anakin.

I think with precog and R4, you really really have something. R2 and torps to reload are interesting but he’ll be stressed SO much...

Fly Ahsoka as his wingman so he just doesn't care? Between her giving him actions and his pilot ability occasionally removing stress that the dial wouldn’t...

I feel like Nuke Ani needs as many dedicated V19s as possible. ..

Efficiency wise R2 is worth 2 Hull vs Hull upgrade which is worth 1. Aethersprites are manoeuvrable enough to facilitate the disabled weapons token.

Yeah, but on a Y-Wing, why not just take the hull so it’s “automatic” and you don’t have to chew up the astro slot or deal with having to run away and be disabled to regen? The thing isn’t going to be as nimble.

Unless the point is more that Y-Wings aren’t as nimble as Deltas, in which case: guilty as charged. But I think if you’ve decided to using them, you’re probably better off adding more beef through the mod slot than the astro slot.

Pssssstttt Angled deflectors

If Nuke Anni really wants to joust, yes!

It would need to be coordinated by Palp so Anakin's actions could be his lock, but yes: doable.

Stack that with some dedicated V19s or even some handmaidens and you're off to the demolition derby

If he has precognitive reflexes that would be great. Any anything without precog or supernatural will just be too easy to catch and focus down

I mean, I wouldn't want a Torp shot with only force mods, but to each his own.

One thing to note is that Y-wings have that plated hull thingy. So if you can regen shields so that you can keep yourself from being critically damaged, you can keep downgrading crits to hits.

You don’t want to assume anyone’s gender these days

Pair Nuke Ani with Plo and he can shot on the turn he reloads - I was on the wrong end of this at a tournament today and chain-firing APT's was a little disgusting to say the least, my opponent got through 5 of them before I ran out of Vultures

I’m still confused on if these are Hyperspace legal yet. I thought there was a wait period between launches and FFG tourney events.

I mean, I understand, but it's 1pt. Then again, I do generally think Foresight is a sleeper hit.
