Interesting Y-Wing build

By Deadshane, in X-Wing

Horton Salm

-proton torp

-blaster turret

-r5 astromech

Dutch Vander

-proton torp

-ion cannon turret

-r5 astromech

Jan Ors

-squad leader

-Nien Nunb

-ion cannon

So, we getto striking range. Dutch moves up and focuses. Then Horton at pilot skill 8 moves up and FOCUSES. Jan moves up and squad leaders dutch (at pilot skill 8) who locks a target triggering his special causing Horton to lock a target. Horton fires a torp assisted by his focus and his special with FIVE dice damage again thanks to Ors. Dutch also looses his focused torp.

After that its Y-Wing business as usual trying to stay clear of collisions and firing turret weapons except again Horton. He maintains a '2' range if possible (for his special) and fires the blaster turret again buffed by Ors. 360 degree 4 dam dice at range 2 with blank rrs.

Decent?

It might work, depending. Horton with his natural rerolls might be able to abuse the Blaster pretty well, and the extra die from Jan would be great. Unfortunately, once Horton goes you will have a sudden and dramatic drop in firepower, and a smart opponent will concentrate on him.

If you can leverage your ion turrets well enough to keep the pressure off Horton you will be golden. If you can't, well I am convinced the theory is sound...
