I'm not totally sold on the TLT. For all the hype it gets, it just seems too expensive to use. For the points a TLT takes, I could stick a Blaster Turret and Title on the Y-Wing and bump the B-Wing up to a Dagger Sq. Pilot.

Though you're only able to do a maximum of 2 damage per round, each individual shot is that much more likely to go through. The blaster turret, by comparison, doesn't allow you to modify your dice (Since you have to spend a focus to use it) and only works at Range 1-2. Take it from me-the TLT is an exceptionally powerful tool, and will chew through anything but the most agile ships.

TLT's are worth the point cost IMO especially against lower agility ships. On top of that, if you can get some rerolls on your TLTS (M9-G8) you are pretty likely to get 2 hits.

Against a 3 Dice defender you've got a 70% chance to do at least 1 damage at 2-3 which is really great. I love TLT + Greedo , that's just really funny.

A TLT Y-wing with Vectored Thrusters is also really good. I've been flying Horton a bit with Vectored Thrusters and he's actually quite mean. That barrel roll makes it that much harder to get donut hole'd.

It was suggested I take off the Thrusters to get BMST and TIE Mk 2 on Rex BUT; I really like the Thrusters so maybe I'll drop the R2 for BMST to make Rex even more annoying. The Y-wing shouldn't be doing anything that gives a stress anyway. The general idea is that none of the four ships should be an obvious first target and the ones that might be (TIE and X-wing) can do things to survive. If they go for the B-wing, he can probably survive one round while their ships get pounded; they can't go for the Y-wing without going through my ships.

There's a reason that four TLT was near or at the top of the meta for a while, and is still very strong. I once took Keyan and two B-wings to a tournament (don't do this) and my first match was quad TLT. I didn't kill one of them, they killed a B-wing every turn.

So, my birthday is coming up in the next few weeks, and I was thinking about adding another ship to my collection. I mostly play imperial, but I have quite a few rebel ships, so I wouldn't be opposed to expanding my rebel ships. Given the current meta what do you think would be the best "bang for my buck?". I don't really have a set playstyle, I play swarms, aces, and big ships (Double falcons!). I do tend to like arc-dodging over turret ships. I'm mostly deciding between the YT-2300, the U-wing, the ARC-190, the K-wing and maybe the ghost for rebels. For rebels I have an A-wing, B-Wing, E-Wing, two Falcons, Two T65, a T70, a HWK-290 and a Tie Fighter. For imperial I'm mostly thinking it's between the Slave-1 and the Decimator, since I feel like I don't need the lambda since I have the upsilon (the idea of double shuttles seems funny, but impractical). Those are the only 3 imp non-epic ships I don't have yet. I'm also considering just waiting for the next wave, but I don't want to wait that long.

Of the Rebel ships, the only one I'd argue against is the U-Wing. Not that it's bad, mind you, but it's not nearly as good as the other ships you're considering.

There's a special format tournament tomorrow that I have to miss, but I really want to attend it. It's 111 points, treat every pilot/upgrade as unique. 111 points is enough to make room for Captain Rex in a Kanan/Biggs ghost list, which sounds like a lot of fun. OK, so spend a focus from Kanan to have you roll one less die, and with Rex's condition you also roll one less die.

It's not really worth it. That frees the Crane too. Now you have 6 more points to play with.

But I plan to drop the crane for sure. I'll probably drop Sabine's Masterpiece, upgrade Autoblaster to TLT, then throw Tactical Jammer to Kanan.

Per previous FAQs on ship names, the TIE Aggressor can equip the IG-2000 title due to being an Aggressor. Also; give Genesis Red a Focus and Evade before he Target Locks a ship that has neither. Keep adding tokens until you have the same number of them as the other ship. Enjoy your eventual death, try to outlast your opponent. Neither of these are my ideas.

1. Pile as many evade tokens on him as you own. 1a. Better do the above fast because you can definitely still get called for slow-playing. 2. Have an effectively invulnerable Genesis Red. 3. Lose anyways because all your other ships died and Genesis Red is only worth 19 points. The rule is obviously written incorrectly, but I bet if you played it as-is it still wouldn't be a good combo.
