Fleet created with Armada Warlords

This is pretty much the hardest list to kill because lando everything and repair 10-12 shields a Turn that can be moved to the appropriate ship. Will be a fun troll fleet, we will see if it can pull out wins or just 5-5s lol

You're a b@stard.

[clontroper5 4,233]

I'm confident It won't lose many games! Just not sure if it can win lol:P

[Ardaedhel 10,844]

I wonder if you could lean them up a bit and use them to anchor a bomber list?

not with all 3

At best your looking at about 95-100 apiece plus admiral we have 310-325 points already while 90 points is a decent bomber force there isn't enough points for adequate fighter cover imo.

Maybe 2 plus a gladiator or vsd

It will. As you didnt go for combat refit, so its vulnerable to bombers

nah bombers won't have the fire power to kill it when it's regenerating 10 hits a turn and the carriers are stuck at speed 0-1

I agree, I think these super-tank healer lists all wither to bombers. I've seen more pickle-centered healing lists get gutted in one round by Yavaris or Rhymer's cronies...

but have you ever seen a super tank healer list that also is a total tar trap?

Yavaris is very happy sitting stationary in the front arc of an Interdictor or two if her B-wings are there too. I get that these are super tank regen monsters, but you can only take so many B-wing shots in a turn. Yavaris' activation alone (front arc and 3 double tapping B-wings) is nearly 13 average damage a turn, to say nothing of crits, burning off defense tokens, and support from the other 290 points of the fleet.

Wave 2 style VSD-anchored Rhymer balls slow *themselves* to zero. I don't play those much, but I'm pretty sure they'll be just as happy to park in one spot and chill there all game while the unassisted bombers go to town on you. It's not like they're taking substantial return fire.

[Ardaedhel 10,844]

I am, btw, quite prepared to eat copious amounts of crow after critiquing this list much as I did Clonisher...

again troll fleet, I said I wouldn't lose but would struggle to win

Basically I'm not getting close to those b-wings and taking that 5-5

This is truly a thing of beauty - if absolutely nothing else, you'll have the most visually attractive fleet on any given table!

 

I'm already pretty fond of the Suppression + SW-7 loadout, getting a double arc with one of these in blue range is going to be a world of hurt for pretty much anything - 6 dice that are guaranteed to deal damage or lock down defense tokens is nothing to sneeze at, with a pair of reds on top of that is simply gravy. Added to that is is the fact that they are split evenly between two attacks, and you are certain to get something through no matter what the target is. 

 

Doubling down on the G7-X likewise seems like the sort of thing you'd want to do if you are able, and it's what I did with my contest entry. Locking down almost the entirety of an opponent's deployment area is going to make for some fairly difficult choices made during deployment, and in many cases you would be able to force your opponent to deploy their fleet as close as physically possible to objectives for the simple fact that they will need to spend the first couple turns speeding up.

thanks!

I originally was going to go Full "Screw you" by bringing 3 g7s and just saying "your speed 0 deal with it" but decided a 2nd targeting scrambler was more important haha

I'd probably argue that going three G7s would actually be counter-productive towards one of the goals that the upgrade should be trying to accomplish - giving your opponent only bad choices to choose from. By leaving a small gap, you can make a small area more attractive in which to deploy at least part of their fleet, but this area would be a place that you would like them to be - the opposite corner of their deployment zone from your main objective and your fleet, for example. With three, that "choice", illusionary as it may be, is no longer something that your opponent will need to consider.

definitely true

That's kinda the conclusion that I came to as well haha

This fleet is so trolly

[PT106 2,316]

I still believe that ISD 2xInterdictor flotilla fleet is better in this case. More firepower, comparable amount of healing, more activations. And more AS

better? Probably...

But whats the fun in that

No contest

Actually for the healing list like this the best counter is something like double liberty with gunnery teams.

yea they could wreak my face unless I keep there speed down which is harder to do against larger ships

My latest take on this is to drop Wullf and Aresko for comm nets on Gozanti. Gives a similar effect, cheaper, more flexibility.

I experimented with both ISD1 and ISD2 and feel that Gunnery team ISD2 is better suited for a list like this. so my latest take on this is:

Clon, to give you background on the tankiness.

My MC30T with Ackbar, enhanced armanent, sensor teams and a double side arc one shotted PTs interdictor yesterday.

Lack of ECM makes them very vunerable.

Well, to be fair, not many things may survive a double ISD1 front-arc shot, lets be fair here. However what matters is the fact that it's not too hard to put a way more damage that the list can heal away in a turn.
