emmjay 319 Posted February 6, 2015 Here is a list that I have been playing with that is a TON of fun. While I don't think it will win in a competitive scene, I am thinking about taking it to a local store championship just to bring something different. *Soontir Fel -Royal Guard TIE -PTL -Shield Upgrade -Stealth Device Yes, I know that Stealth Device is hit or miss. However, doing what I can to make sure that the first round of shooting is at range 3 gives me enough dice to make it work. Yes, if it works once it equals a Hull Upgrade, if it works more than that, it pays for itself. Sigma Squadron Pilot -Intel Agent -Enhanced Scopes -Stygium Particle Accelerator Omicron Group Pilot -Enhanced Scopes -Autoblaster -Intel Agent -Mara Jade - Anti-Pursuit Lasers These two ships offer something that most players don't expect or use - the ability to go first, and see where your opponent is going. A lot of times where they are going is obvious, the question is did he do a hard 2 or 3, what straight, etc..... By getting there first you can: 1. Setup an ambush with the Phantom 2. Setup a "Blocker" with the Shuttle 3. Use the Shuttle to do 1 damage with APL 4. Stress them all @ range 1 with Mara. So, this entire list is setup to have two ships move first, and then a final ship (which can get into great position with all its abilities) get into a great covering location. And, with Fel's PS 9, very few ships can match or beat it to get into an even BETTER position. True, Turrets are a problem, and both the shuttle and the Phantom are sitting there for quite a while before they can shoot, and are easy targets. I have with a few (un)lucky dice rolls had my Phantom killed outright before it could ever take a shot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
draco193 491 Posted February 6, 2015 It'd be fun to fly I think. I'm not certain how consistently you'll be able to block with the shuttle. It's not very mobile. Not certain if you could squeeze an engine upgrade onto it by rearranging a few other parts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Estarriol 1,649 Posted February 8, 2015 Ran buzz saw whisper, captain Yorr and Soontir Fel today to some success. People really underestimate the shuttle! I like your version, I just prefer two PS-9 monsters charging about. I know that is the Gencon Winners list, but I had already independently fleshed out everything except I was running a Doom shuttle before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
