==UT-60D "U-Wing" Support Craft== [[File:U-wing-SW_Battlefront.png|thumb|200px|right]] Featured in the ''Rogue One'' anthology film, this swing-wing equipped craft is made by the same corporation who designed the X-Wing as a multi-purpose support ship with a lot of possible configuration. The film shows it used as basically a space helo - being a transport, gunship or recon craft depending on who is flying and how it's interior is configured. In the game, it's basically a lighter, stripped down Lambda Shuttle. Its front gun is the same, but no tail, its agility is (usually) better, and hull & shield both have a point shaved off. Its Coordinate action is red, so Tactical Officer is always a consideration. Its maneuver dial is leaps and bounds better than the Lambda. It has a decent number of blues and only one red (The stop maneuver) to the Lambda's 5. Speaking of stopping, it can close the pivot wing to parking mode so it can turn 90Β° or 180Β° while stopping. The only caveat is that agility is reduced, so you'll want to open those wings back up after you're done. *The U-Wing is a great spot for any support crew like Leia, Cassian, or Jyn Erso. Saw Gerrera and Magva Yarro are also good picks if they aren't already at the steering wheel. <gallery> Image:u_wing_vs_tie_striker.jpg Image:Uwing-SWB.png|U-Wing with Pivot Wings in attack position Image:U-Wing left-1024x985.jpg|The Wings on the U-Wing mini actually swing Image:Cassian-andor-main.jpeg|Cassian, looking fabulous </gallery> ===Pilots=== *'''Partisan Renegade''': (''SR'') This generic pilot has an Initiative of 1, an Illicit Upgrade slot, and a sweet new paintjob. Could be a good choice if FFG released some decent illicits for 2E. *'''Blue Squadron Scout''': Init 2 Generic. Good choice if you just want the stats and upgrade options. *'''Benthic Two-Tubes''': (''SR'') One of Saw's boys seen in ''Rogue One'' and ''Solo''. When he focuses, he can give 1 focus token to a friendly ship Range 1-2. If you're flying Benthic, you're flying Edrio. You also have a Perceptive Copilot or Baze Malbus. *'''Heff Tobler''': Was actually an X-Wing pilot in the film, but FFG needs names from somewhere. His ability lets him perform a free action when an enemy ship bumps him, making him an excellent choice for a blocker, and combo with crew cards which require Actions, like Baze Malbus. Could also combo amusingly with Zeb Orrelios *'''Cassian Andor''': A rebel intel agent and discount Kyle Katarn - Cassian has the ability to pull stress off another friendly ship at range 1-3 at the start of the Activation Phase. Great squaddie to heavier ships with lots of red maneuvers. *'''K-2SO:''' (''H&A'') An Imperial security droid reprogrammed into a [[Troll|snarky asshole]] for the Rebellion in ''Rogue One''. As a U-Wing pilot, he gains a calculate token after gaining a stress token, which gives him some extra action economy from the red coordinate. **''Hotshots and Aces'' also gives K-2SO as a crew card. As a crew, he adds calculate and jam to the action bar. He can grant a calculate and stress to a friendly ship range 0-3 in the System Phase, you know, right before they would perform a blue maneuver and clear that stress. *'''Magva Yarro''': (''SR'') Another Partisan. Magva can prevent enemy ships from rerolling more than one attack die against any friendly ship range 0-2, herself included. Limited use, as there aren't many Imperial ships that would reroll more than one attack die in the first place, except for the TIE Punishers that have been dominating 2E's meta. *'''Bodhi Rook''': An imperial cargo pilot who defected with a message from Jyn's dad, Bodhi has the ability to allow all ships in your squad to target lock any ship so long as it's in range 0-3 of any friendly ship, meaning he could be flown to buddy up with Rebel ordnance carriers. *'''Saw Gerrera''': (''SR'') Saw first appeared in ''The Clone Wars'' TV series. A fiery youth eager to fight, he just needed training and guidance. [[Derp|They sent Anakin Skywalker, apparently forgetting the bad influence he was on the comparatively stable Ahsoka Tano]]. Anakin proceeded to show the already aggressive Saw that rules and regulations are for pussies, causing him to become more extreme. He showed up in ''Rebels'' and in ''Rogue One'', where he helped raise Jyn Erso and [[Murderhobo|tortured Bodhi Rook]] before getting Death Star'd. In X-Wing, he allows nearby damaged friendlies (as in, at least one damage card) to reroll 1 attack die, effectively [[Khorne|rewarding recklessness]].
