So I am trying to make use of the B-Wings. Team from my city is flying them with a U-Wing and an A-Wing all together. But I am honestly not too fond of that set up. I have been attempting to create something new, but with a similar feel and came up with the idea, to tinker with the VCX-100. I like the idea of this hulking no fun zone, that this ship creates in front of itself. But since I am not too advanced in terms of synergy and stuff, I came here to clear my doubts up.

Idea 1:

1. VCX-100 "Chopper" - Leia Organa, Kanan Jarrus, Dorsal Turret, Veteran Turret Gunner
2. B-Wing Braylen Stramm - Marksmanship
3. B-Wing Ten Numb - Marksmanship

YASB Idea 1

Idea 2:

1. U-Wing Cassian Andor - Leia Organa
2. A-Wing Jake Farrell - Composure, Predator
3. B-Wing Braylen Stramm - Marksmanship
4. B-Wing Ten Numb - Marksmanship

YASB Idea 2

Both lists have means to deal with the Stress token on Braylen, with the second one being more free in the way it executes maneuvers. I just like the devastating double tap of Ghost with the 0-2 zone of double Jam tokens from Chopper on every enemy. What do you think of this approach? Also a rules question. Jake Farrell has a "After you perform Roll or Boost, give a ship in range 0-1 a focus action". If he fails at the boost, can he give a ship in range 1 a Focus Action and perform one himself from Composure, if he hasn't done one this turn yet?

RE: Jake. I don't think a failed action counts as an action, so likely not. And I don't think it's a combo worth trying to milk, anyway; as you want the Composure on the named B's so they can fail a roll, get a focus and rerolls.

Bs can just Focus into failed or not Roll for Stress and Focus tokens. And sadly, what you said is true. Just checked and failing an Action does not trigger any effects from performing said Action.

I definitely like list 2 better, I'd swap marksmanship for crack shot though.

That is what they are flying right now: BABU Squadron so technically Crack Shot on Bs, Jake swapped for Arvel with Intimidation and Predator, Hull Upgrade on Braylen. 0 point bid.

I just dislike how when you lose the U-Wing the whole list falls apart more or less.

I stan list 2, but I rather prefer Arvel with Intimidation and Predator to Jake. It makes for a little more punch, perhaps enough to match list 1, if you pull it off right
