4 Bombers with Proximity Mines and Doomshuttle

I got this link from a friend, who told me it won a Store Championship in Germany (he wasn't sure about it though).

First things first, the list looks super fun to play actually.

However I'm not sure how this beauty works, so I thought I'd ask here to get any advice what this list is strong against and where it struggles. Either way it looks super hard to play.

 

Maybe someone can enlighten me, would be really appreciated

 

/edit: oops, not a Store Championship in Germany, the list was flewn by Sable Gryphon from Team Covenant

Interesting. I don't have much experience with the shuttle. Its dial is not great though, so setting up shots can be a challenge. To maximize Vader, maybe this instead:

 

Patrol Leader (Vader)

Scimitar (Proximity Mines) x3

100 points

 

So, 1 less Bomber, but the Patrol Leader has a turret so much more certain to attack. Plus it has more health.

Yeah, looks nice, but I still have no idea how to play that list and how it performs

Here you go.

Here you go.

 

 

About to come in here with that link.

Ah Sable Gryphon, that explains a lot.

He does love his space cows and bomber lists.

The good ol space cow is a beast and at 24 points with Vader on board it's not only a bargain but very lethal.

I've used this list and it is awesome

I'm a huge fan of bombers.

It really throws your opponent in for a loop.

People design lists to tackle the "meta" usually in mind, so when they see this they'll either scoff and underestimate it, or throw them off their game.

I really like it

Post Wave 7 version:

 

Scimitar + Proximity + EM x 4 = 84 points

 

Backstabber or Dark Curse = 16 points

 

 

That's a lot of mines...

[Nicorex 3]

EM?? Sorry I have not heard of that yet.

[Jo Jo 4,808]

Extra Munitions.
