"Pilot Skill Shmilot Skill"--A Scum List

[withallyourpower 14]

I've found my answer to the Advanced Cloaking Device on Whisper-It's a lowly PS level 3 named Torkil Mux. I never really liked the HWK but this is a cheap pilot with a great ability. I don't see IG-88A used a lot but with this duo of turrets I feel like his ability might actually come into play once or twice in a round. Thanks for your opinion and suggestions!

 

 

Kavil (34) - Y-Wing

Marksmanship (3), Twin Laser Turret (6), Unhinged Astromech (1)

 

Torkil Mux (25) - HWK-290

Ion Cannon Turret (5), 4-LOM (1)

 

IG88-A (41) - Aggressor

Adaptability +1 (0), Fire Control System (2), Inertial Dampeners (1), Autothrusters (2)

I like IG-88C a little better as a stand alone, but that's probably a matter of preference. PS8 is real these days though, so you're probably better off using VI on the Aggressor and cutting the Inertial Dampeners. Torkil Mux can use TLT if you adjust drop 4-LOM, which may be a better call.

 

Kavil is currently equipped with 10pts of upgrades, but I think a better use of 10pts might be VI, Dorsal Turret, R4 Agromech, and Engine Upgrade. You could leave adaptability on Kavil in that build so that he and the Aggressor have the same PS and you have a 1pt bid vs other PS8s.

Sounds interesting.  Small suggestions for tweaking:  Swap out Marksmanship for Predator.  Predator still works for both shots but doesn't require an action so you can still use it when you bump or otherwise don't have actions.  Another option would be to drop Marksmanship and Unhinged for R4 Agromech.  R4 is really good offensively, you can spend the focus even if you roll all blanks to get the Target Lock which you may then use immediately, and this gives you 2 more points to play with.  I would consider Feedback Array on IGGY to scare low hit point ships away from range one and a one point EPT on Kavil or IGGY.
