TTC 114 Posted January 14, 2016 One of our local game stores is running a very casual 200-point tournament. I don't know all of the details, but I was told we'll all be playing Opening Salvo. Squadron points are capped at 60. Also, admirals are not required. So this is what I ginned up for 200 points, Opening Salvo, sans admiral: -CR90A Walex Blissex Turbolaser Reroute Circuits Jaina's Light Purpose: Primary attacker -CR90A Turbolaser Reroute Circuits Purpose: Lead ship, blocker and protecting Walex ship -CR90A Tantive IV Lando Calrissian Turbolaser Reroute Circuits Purpose: Escort/support Walex 3x A-Wings Right at 200 points. I expect someone will have at least one 2-Guppy build, which I think will be difficult to counter. The A-Wings give me enough squadron ability to counter any 60-point squadron build. Otherwise, they add a nice black die and I can fly them with the CR90s. I've also considered trying to running three CR90As with TLRC and one CR90B with SW7. If I'm facing squadrons, a fast-moving CR90 swarm shouldn't be that vulnerable to them. Thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ginkapo 9,321 Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) If you lose some upgrades you can switch a CR90 for an MC30 Foresight! Over thought, rogue yt2400's will allow you to use squadrons against fast ship spams Edited January 14, 2016 by Ginkapo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTC 114 Posted January 14, 2016 If you lose some upgrades you can switch a CR90 for an MC30 Foresight! Interesting thought. Charge in with the MC30 and let the CR90s lay back and plink away? I'm pretty sure that the MC30 won't last long, but it will take a few of the enemy ships with it. Not sure if that many points is worth it in this list. It would basically be two naked CR90s, MC30-Foresight, and I think only two A-Wings. I can't imagine running the CR90s against a small list without TLRC.
