...But When You Buy A Second One For $7

By JBFancourt, in X-Wing Squad Lists

Okay, I’ve only ever been mildly interested in the YV-666. I purchased one when it released in 1.0 days... but I’m not much of a Scum player.

Soooo... then Amazon had them on sale for $6.90 with free shipping!!! So while I’ve never flown ONE, I’m now strangely obsessed with flying TWO! 🙄 😜 😁

Any good ideas? The only ships I really love on scum is Fenn Rau and Bro Bots. So this is my first stab. I originally had Bossk Gunner, but extra stress is not worth 2 unmodded attacks. I know of the Lando option but don’t own him.

I’ve renamed my build with Fenn and 2x Trandoshans “Nerf Herder” 😜 😜

Lando and IG-88D make any YV potent AF. A second one can take Maul, or 0-0-0 if you're on a budget. Either could then be upgraded to Bossk (adding on Greedo to guarantee him his crit) or Moralo if you want the punch or trickiness, respectively!

A trick with Lando is to just combo him with taking reinforce actions, recycle that token after you've been shot at. 0-0-0 makes for a neat backup trick that might also give you a focus, add BT-1 to discourage them taking the stress. Particularly fun if you brought 4-LOM, Koshka, Han, or Bossk.

Heehee... I won our local store OP with Nerfherder! 😜 😂

It was a small OP but went 3-0 with good MOV. It’s a strange build.....

I hate to mess with perfection here, but Nerf Herder has a couple of problems that I want to experiment with:

1) Both YVs roll up and take Reinforce. However that’s one wasted action, because USUALLY the opponent will focus fire on only one YV. Something I can’t know, tho, so both take Reinforce.

2) If Fenn dies, I lose. He’s basically the only damage output. The other two YVs are just control and protection. Damage is just bonus.

Soooooo.... What do you think?

4-LOM has his reinforce. Xizor is perfect for hovering around 4-LOM. Reinforce if the go for 4-LOM. And a modded attack from Xizor.

If they go for Xizor he dumps on 4-LOM. If they chase Fenn, Xizor can legitimately punish that decision. I’m not auto dead if I lose Fenn.

Bonus: I’m using Xizor, who I’ve never seen on the table before. 😜 👍 👍

But you dumped your second YV!!!

I feel like dumping a YV for an underused SV Pilot is still a noble attempt. Lol 😝

You have enough marginal upgrades here to upgrade the Carbonite Bus to Trick Shot Latts, who is amazing .

Tactical Scramblers can likely just go without an impact, since people will mostly shoot the Bus in front of them anyway.

Swarm is possibly a nice touch, but that or Slicers, with the Scrambers and BT-1, will give you the necessary 9pt wiggle.

That Bossk, Slaver, 4Lom list looks fun. Any experience using it yet?

Nope, so many lists, so little time.
