Hello Everyone

I want to try something a little different than Super Dash, so I've been messing around a bit with a Kyle Katarn / Garven Dries list. Let me know what you guys think, all feedback is appreciated:

Kyle Katarn - Ion Turret, Recon Specialist

Garven Dries

Gold Squadron Pilot - Ion Turret

Blue Squadron Pilot

The idea is pretty simple, Kyle and Gold will try and put enemy ships in predictable positions. Garven and Blue should be able to take TL + Focus shots on those targets.

It's good in theory but I find that Kyle works best with moldy crow title & recon specialist since all the above culminate in one hell of a focus factory that can work extremely well with Garven's special rule effectively giving him PTL for free without stress if you chose to go that route or between he & Kyle they can allow other ships to double down on focus or action+focus & Kyle will still have at least 1 focus of his own (if you play it right & crawl for the first couple turns he'll have plenty to do all sorts of shenanigans with).

Thanks for the feedback! As I originally played with the list, I had the moldy crow title on there. It would be great to rack up focus tokens and have 4 or 6 banked before any engagement. I also originally had him with a blaster turret, so the bank made sense. But the more I thought about it, I'm not sure Katarn will be using more than 2 per turn consistently after I swapped to ion turrets instead of blaster turrets. Where would you find the 3 points for the Moldy Crow title?

Something I would try is dropping the ion turret from the Y-Wing and adding R3-A2 and make it a stress machine, just have it run up slow behind Garven and the B and stress everything to make them more predicable. With the extra 3 points I might add R5-P9 to Garven for shield regen.
