Lyraeus 4,759 Posted January 10, 2016 Looks like you have enough firepower to take on anything there. The small ship spam lists might give you the most trouble. huh. . . I cant see the post. . . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lyraeus 4,759 Posted January 10, 2016 Are these the lists being taken? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drasnighta 26,833 Posted January 10, 2016 I am unable to read the minds of the people to know that. This is merely a representation of some lists that were brought to a local tournament being played at another local store. Consequently, I do know that the 3 Victories+Slaved Turrets+Massive Rhymer Ball got 2nd, and the player who got 1st considered himself lucky to win that game against it... And James is more than likely to keep taking those 3 Victories if they're competitive. But beyond that. Not a clue. I wasn't there and employed a Bothan to even get those pictures. He lived to deliver them, so I had to shoot him and bury him in the neighbor's backyard. 1 Lyraeus reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drasnighta 26,833 Posted January 10, 2016 Winning list at this tournament was:ISD-II - ECM- Gunnery - XI7 - Relentless - Admiral Ozzel - Leading Shots Gladiator I - Demolisher - APTs Gladiator I - Ordnance Ex Raider I - Ordnance Ex Raider I - Ordnance Ex (Most Wanted, Fire Lanes, Intel Sweep) Guy lives ~2 hours out of town in a Neighboring Town. Feels he attributes his victory to sheer luck vs the Rhymerball of Doom, which ended up killing his ISD - but his remaining ships were able to down 2 Victories in response. When I asked him if he'd take that to Store Champs, his reply was "I don't know, I was thinking of switching to Rebels for a bit." Since he's been using Ozzel since he was out.

MoffZen 760 Posted January 10, 2016 Fleet ambush is okay with a fighter based list, because fleet ambush favours fleets that have short range, but you'll be at a severe disadvantage against brawling Imperial lists who actually like to be up close. Why not go for Fire Lanes ? With the amount of red dice you have and the wide side arcs on your boats, you're likely to cover and overlap more areas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Englishpete 1,379 Posted January 11, 2016 The main issue I see with your ships is the lack of ECM's, with all the incoming fire and accuracies I have been seeing lately, keeping that Brace in play is important. I know you love the X-wing, but losing 2 to put ECM's on all three ships might be a good trade? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drasnighta 26,833 Posted January 11, 2016 That's a tougher sell for me... I've not really had the issue with that so far at all... If anything, I'm the one throwing the Dice and ACCs and putting my opponent on the back foot... If I did, I don't know... 2 X-wings wouldn't be worth losing. Maybe one for ECMs on something more gunny-or-important. Triage it a bit. 1 Lyraeus reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Englishpete 1,379 Posted January 11, 2016 I can see dropping one to get ECM's on your carrier and Crusier as the X-wing is 13 points and I think you had a few points spare? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Madaghmire 7,277 Posted January 11, 2016 I agree with Pete that you should try to find the points to put ECM's on the MonCal. I feel like its obligatory given the points already invested. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drasnighta 26,833 Posted January 11, 2016 A little bit more Funky...A little bit more Oddball...... Its really strange to take Point Defense Reroute Un-Ironically... But there it is... [ REBEL FLEET (397 points)1 • MC80 Assault Cruiser - Electronic Countermeasures - Heavy Turbolaser Turrets (127)2 • Assault Frigate Mark II A - Ruthless Strategists - Point-Defense Reroute (90)3 • Assault Frigate Mark II B - Admiral Ackbar - XI7 Turbolasers (116)4 • HWK-290 (12)5 • X-wing Squadron (13)6 • X-wing Squadron (13)7 • X-wing Squadron (13)8 • X-wing Squadron (13) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drasnighta 26,833 Posted January 14, 2016 Well, Honing it further... Kicking more around...Hope with 4 X-Wings is to Engage and Damage a portion of the enemy Squadron Contingent, so the AFMK-IIA puts on the heavy hurt to them... The MC80 Assault is as Tanky as I've got Points for, and being on its own, its fairly "expendable", in the series that it doesn't have my Admiral on it...That, and the MC80 is almost finished being painted...
