So I just got my haul of Wave 1 expansions yesterday and everything looks awesome.Has anybody tried out the B-Wing rebel fighters with much success? At a speed of 2, it seems like it would be difficult to ever get them into any effective position against enemy ships. Obviously, you're rewarded if you do, as they have the best anti-ship batteries of any squadron in the game thus far, but that doesn't mean much if they never get to shoot. Just curious if anybody had any experience with them thus far.

My only wave 1 game resulted in what is probably as good as bombers get.An xwing, awing, Dutch, and Tycho got the jump on the imperial swarm and made soontir and mauler nearly useless. They bought time until yavaris could hit them with its antisquadron guns.Farlander, a bwing, and a ywing got the jump on a VSD with activations supported by Yavaris and Adar. They destroyed the VSD in two turns. Then again, they threw a combined 4 blue dice and 14 black in two turns. My capital ships threw a combined one red die at it.Then a Wulf Gladiator with a banked navigate token proceeded to make my assault frigate its playtoy.Short answer: Y wings are a safe bet bomber with greater speed and HP.

Bwing are more risk/reward but have a pretty impressive performance if placed right and not intercepted. I am curious about Bs as well.I would like to know more about how some are using them and getting in close enough to do damage.I for one am having a hard time using any other but Squadron commands. At least for my carrier designated ships. But then that means The ship must stay close enough to do this and that means being at least in medium range of any Imperial guns.bad juju.So I think the game is getting the Bs close enough, using Squadron commands to get the shots off in time, AND still have the command ships survive that close to the Imperials.I have been mainly flying Ys at this point. 6 hull and a black die to attack ships, and then only 10 points.

But I really like Bs.Thoughts? The key thing seems to be to keep in mind the turn sequence. Ships fire and then move. Fighters then fire or move. The Imperial ships are very unwieldy and you pretty much know where they will be at the end of their next move.

So put your bombers in that general area and next turn they will come to you and won't even be able to fire at your bombers because they will have already fired before they move.Just their next move? Without Nav commands, it shouldn't be too hard to point to a spot on the board where the Victory will end turn 6 based on setup. Use your ships to bait them, force them into flying toward the B-Wings. If they choose to point their front arc away from your ships and the objectives to avoid running over a group of B-Wings, you have probably already won the game.
