Mad Cat 2,113 Posted December 15, 2016 I think the idea is that at long range the single red die from your front or rear arc if you double arc an opponent would just be evaded by the defence token so might as well go with a 4-5 red dice side shot with Vader rerolls. 2 eViL dAvE and itzSteve reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now I need to find space for the title cards for the Arq's... Edited December 15, 2016 by itzSteve 1 eViL dAvE reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ginkapo 8,527 Posted December 15, 2016 Vader does love wave 5. Colonel jandon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
itzSteve 602 Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) Vader does love wave 5. Colonel jandon That's a tough 20pt squad to make room for... I suppose I can drop SA to get the Arq titles and then drop Jonus and the comms net on Vader's ship to add Jendon... Jendon basically gives you the same ability that the Centicore title does...right?

Onidsen 561 Posted December 16, 2016 If you're going that route, I'd rather drop Rhymer over dropping Jonus. That auto-accuracy will be more useful, even with Vader's reroll. Also, Jendon is the one that lets a squadron attack twice. So squadron vader loves him. Commander vader doesn't care. All lambdas give the equivalent of the Centicore title, including Jendon, but that's not his special ability. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkyCake 1,182 Posted December 16, 2016 what are we spending acc on.... if we are at long, locking an evade isnt great... if he has two evades then screw it... locking a redirect or brace while he evades is meh as well... f the opponent is even somewhat annoyed by jonus, he can take em out easy... drop jomus for intel officers on arqs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
