RogueCommander 236 Posted August 31, 2016 .... And hope they don't have bombers. I dunno, could it work?

Madaghmire 7,202 Posted August 31, 2016 My biggest concern, bombers, you are clearly aware of. The other comment I would make is why not just use SW7's? Probably works out the same, damage wise, and you can use the leftover points for a bid. 3 RogueCommander, Iskander4000 and Parkdaddy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parkdaddy 626 Posted August 31, 2016 My biggest concern, bombers, you are clearly aware of. The other comment I would make is why not just use SW7's? Probably works out the same, damage wise, and you can use the leftover points for a bid. SW7s would be cheaper ($ and points), and I recently did crack some calcs of my own, mostly for getting DPs ability to trigger with these. But SW7s mean that you can do 5 damage always, 6 with a CF (assuming double arcs, which should be a given with Madine). Your opponent can only brace 1 damage on each attack or redirect, so averages of 3 and 4 damage (assuming a double brace). HCTs would get you to an average of 4.5 and 5.25 damage, with an average of 1.75 accuracies. Even on a CFed roll with all hits (4 damage), the attack can be braced to the same damage as a non-CFed attack. But getting 1 accuracy can prevent the enemy from bracing 3 damage to 2. Though a CR90 is not your opponents biggest worry, using a brace here is not likely to happen. Where does that leave my opinion? For the points, I'd rather take SW7s on a vanilla, but I would consider HCTs on Dodonna's Pride. Though Leading shots is actually better for Crit fishing. 1 RogueCommander reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RogueCommander 236 Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) Very embarrassed at the omission of Farr. What was I thinking?! Now I've got a super healthy bid for first, or some room to add more stuff. Liking it a lot. Thoughts on objectives?

Maturin 1,522 Posted September 1, 2016 They're pretty maneuverable already. Mon Mothma would increase your survivabilty quite a bit at the ranges where you'll be fighting... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RogueCommander 236 Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) I want the Liberty to dance with them. Without Madine, I've found it to be a bit of a tub. But yes, no reason not to swap out and give Mothma a shot as well. Edited September 1, 2016 by RogueCommander Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
