Vynder’s Vendetta: Alpha Wing Build For X-Wing 2.0

Major Vynder, a skilled Alpha-Class Starwing pilot, is ready to push his ship to the limits in X-Wing 2.0. The Star Wing can be surprisingly fast with its SLAM action potential, and Vynder can take advantage of its disadvantages. While Major Vynder defends, if he is disarmed, roll 1 additional defense die. When a ship performs a SLAM action, it must receive a Weapons Disable token, granting Major Vynder a defensive bonus!

Ds-1 Arsenal Loadout

The Star Wing can equip unique loadouts that take advantage of its SLAM capabilities. The Os-1 Arsenal Loadout benefits the player that focuses on torpedo and missile upgrades, as the title allows those to still be fired while you have a disarm token and a target that is locked.

It also adds additional torpedo and missile slots, which work perfectly with our choice: Barrage Rockets. Barrage Rockets

Barrage Rockets takes up 2 missile slots and grants you 5 energy, allowing you to attack at range 2-3 using 3 attack dice. Requiring a focus token and 1 energy to fire, you may reroll attack dice if the defender is in your bulls-eye firing arc as needed by spending additional energy.Elusive

Since Major Vynder is defensively focused, Elusive can help him dodge an attack even better. While you defend, you may spend 1 energy to reroll 1 defense die. After you fully execute a red maneuver, you may recover 1 energy.

This can help Major Vynder with his additional agility die that he can gain if he is disarmed, and his Arsenal Loadout can allow him to fire his Barrage Rockets at his hapless victim. The power of Imperial technology in X-Wing 2.0!
