Sith Assassin: Darth Maul X-Wing 2.0 Squad

Darth Maul

Darth Maul is flying into X-Wing 2.0 with the latest wave of ships, and he sits ready to strike from the shadows.The Dark Side will prevail.

Darth Maul

The sinister Sith Assassin, Darth Maul is infiltrating the tabletops of X-Wing 2.0! This large based ship will have the Rebels and Resistance fearing for their very lives! Darth Maul is at a respectable initiative of 5 and has a pilot ability that allows him to spend Force charges to attack more than once in a round. After Maul performs an attack, he may spend 2 Force charges to perform a bonus primary attack against a different target. If your attack missed, you may perform that bonus attack against the same target. This allows the Sith Assassin to take on multiple ships at once! Adv. Proton Torpedoes

Advanced Proton Torpedoes is just the thing to take out those enemy ships that dare get too close. At range 1, this 5 die attack can blow way most enemy targets and allows you to change 1 hit result to a crit, adding insult to injury. If another target is in range, after you attack an enemy with APTs, you can spend 2 Force charges to attack another ship, putting out a high damage output from 1 ship. Brilliant Evasion

This damage output can make Maul a high priority target, so he will need solid defense. Brilliant Maneuver is  Force ability that can allow Maul to spend Force charges to add evades to his defense rolls. While you defend, if you are not in the attacker’s bulls-eye arc, you may spend 1 Force charge to change 2 of your focus results to evades. If Maul is at range 3 from an attacker, this will work out great to give you 2 evades, barring blank results.

Tractor Beam

If your enemy is not careful, you can trap them in a big power play that can take out 2 ships with 1 activation. Tractor Beam is a cannon upgrade that can go on the Sith Infiltrator and allows you to attack with 3 dice at range 1-3. If the attack hits, all hit/ crit results inflict tractor tokens instead of damage. This can help you tractor beam a ship closer to another friendly ship to set up a range 1 attack and can allow Maul to attack another enemy ship, all in 1 activation! This Sith Assassin is ready to start taking out enemy ships in X-Wing 2.0.
