Imperial Aces - mildly competitive & extremely fun

Recommended Posts

So with the thoughts of TLTOMGSKYISFALLINGOPFFGSUCKZORZ, I figured that I would come up with an aces list for Imperial that would handle the broader meta around here. Granted, I haven't been able to play a ton since regionals, so this may be a horrible idea. 

 

It does rely on green dice, and you know how that usually ends up.

 

Any how, I'd like to get folks thoughts on this list.

 

Darth Vader — TIE Advanced 29
Predator 3
Advanced Targeting Computer 1
Engine Upgrade 4
TIE/x1 0
Ship Total: 37
 
Soontir Fel — TIE Interceptor 27
Push the Limit 3
Autothrusters 2
Stealth Device 3
Royal Guard TIE 0
Ship Total: 35
 
"Omega Ace" — TIE/fo Fighter 20
Predator 3
Engine Upgrade 4
Ship Total: 27
 
Total: 99 pts for initiative.
 
I've thought about adding Comm Relay to Omega Ace once the expansion pack comes out.

Comm relay is so good.  Nobody is talking about it for some reason, but its going to be a game changer for the TIE/fo.

 

As to the list, I think its a mistake to take predator on Omega Ace.  He and Push the limit were made for each other...

 

I agree as well about PTL but the idea for Predator is that the TLT build is all PS2, so I'd get the x2 reroll. That being said, I think you may still be correct.

This was my original build because the Ace really does call for PTL.

"Omega Ace" — TIE/fo Fighter 20

Stealth Device 3
Royal Guard TIE 0

With Vader & Fel shooting first, you have a good chance to strip all the shields.  Omega Ace doesn't care about how many re-rolls he gets, provided he can use the TL + focus offensively.  Spend them both and turn all the dice into crits is pretty nasty.  Of course, he will die fast, so Comm Relay will be essential on him

Been looking to try something like this. Identical Vader and Fel but Stealth on Omega until the F/O expansion is available for the relay.

That it will be Fel shooting first to strip tokens / shields makes Vaders ATC shot followed by potentially triple crit from Omega really nasty.

Distinct lack of endurance in the list I guess but with reduced PWT around now, you can't be hurt if you can't be shot.
