Anakin’s New Ride: X-Wing 2.0 Ship Build

X-Wing 2.0

Anakin Skywalker is in the cockpit of his new Naboo Starfighter for X-Wing 2.0! Check out what the best child prodigy pilot can do!

Anakin Skywalker

Child prodigy Anakin Skywalker is at the controls of his very own Naboo Starfighter! At initiative 4, Anakin is one wily pilot with his ability to perform a free barrel roll before even revealing his maneuver. This does not count as an action and he must spend 1 Force charge to do it. This can help Anakin avoid arc dodgers, blockers, and even obstacles with ease.

R2-D2

R2-D2 is Anakin’s trusty Astromech buddy while he’s in his Naboo Starfighter. R2 can spend 1 charge to recover 1 shield, at the cost of gaining 1 disarm token. With the Full Throttle ability on his ship, Anakin can blast off at speed 3-5, gain an evade token, and recover a shield if things get too intense.

Advanced Sensors

If Anakin finds himself about to be blocked, use Advanced Sensors to dodge! Advanced Sensors allows Anakin to perform an action after he reveals his dial, so it chains a barrel roll after he reveals his dial with his pilot ability. Anakin can really get himself out of tight situations with all of his movement action chaining.

Brilliant Evasion

Since Anakin is a Force user, a Force ability will be a nice touch for him. Brilliant Evasion is the perfect fit for this elusive little pilot. While defending, if Anakin is not in the attacker’s bulls-eye arc, he may spend 1 Force charge to change 2 of his focus results into evades. This can fix Anakin’s dice if he finds himself getting attacked without a focus token.
