Why Nien Nunb? With the 360 arc there is little need to take a red maneuver so the extra greens are not really useful. Unless you are Lando.

That is a good point, maybe an R2 unit for the other Y-Wing instead.

Yeah, I think so. Probably better with a generic R5 droid than Nien Nunb, but maybe that's just me. I love Y-wings, so I would totally enjoy playing this list, and might do so soon.

I love how the introduction of wave2 has made the Y-Wings even better:

1) the 360 degree firing arc will help counter those ships with boost

2) they will be gr8 versus enemy Flacons and Slave1s

it took me a long time to warm up the the Y-Wings even in wave1. i eventually saw their versatility and usefulness.

I'm loving the Y-Wings and pretty much run one in every rebel squad I play. (I prefer 2)

Same here, very useful ships.
