schmidty1701 140 Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) I've been toying around with wild and crazy Ackbar lists. I came up with two that I'd actually fly. Name: Ackbar Super fleet Faction: Rebel Commander: Admiral Ackbar Assault: Opening Salvo Defense: Contested Outpost Navigation: Solar Corona Assault Frigate Mk2 B (72) • Admiral Ackbar (38) • Gunnery Team (7) • Electronic Countermeasures (7) • Dual Turbolaser Turrets (5) = 129 Points Assault Frigate Mk2 B (72) • Gunnery Team (7) • Electronic Countermeasures (7) • Dual Turbolaser Turrets (5) = 91 Points Assault Frigate Mk2 B (72) • Gunnery Team (7) • Electronic Countermeasures (7) • Dual Turbolaser Turrets (5) = 91 Points Assault Frigate Mk2 B (72) • Gunnery Team (7) • Electronic Countermeasures (7) = 86 Points Squadrons: = 0 Points Total Points: 397 Name: Ackbar Nebulons and CR90s Faction: Rebel Commander: Admiral Ackbar Assault: Opening Salvo Defense: Hyperspace Assault Navigation: Salvage Run CR90 Corvette A (44) • Admiral Ackbar (38) • Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7) • Jaina's Light (2) = 91 Points CR90 Corvette A (44) • Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7) = 51 Points CR90 Corvette A (44) • Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7) = 51 Points Nebulon-B Support Refit (51) • Dual Turbolaser Turrets (5) = 56 Points Nebulon-B Support Refit (51) • Dual Turbolaser Turrets (5) = 56 Points Nebulon-B Support Refit (51) • Dual Turbolaser Turrets (5) = 56 Points Squadrons: • Shara Bey (17) • Tycho Celchu (16) = 33 Points Total Points: 394 I think the AFII fleet would just surprise people. 4 Assualt frigates with Ackbar and GT could do A LOT of damage.

Coranhann 93 Posted September 10, 2018 On paper, AFmk2 dish out more damage than Corvette Swarm. But for this to happen, you need to have them positionned for 2 targets. I have found that hard to pull in practice. You're opponent need to got that way as, as agile as it is, the frigate is not so nimble it can get itself where ever it wants to be. Please note I usually have 1 or 2 Frigates, with Corvettes support. Regarding your second list: I like what you have done to address squadron issues. If I may ask : Why Neb-B instead of corvettes ? You have point for it, and they are more agile. You could even go with 5 corvettes & 1 Neb, and have it be the Salvation, either with a TRC or a DTT. This way, if someone tries to get in front of your line, you throw some REALLY heavy punches. 1 schmidty1701 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schmidty1701 140 Posted September 10, 2018 1 hour ago, Coranhann said: Why Neb-B instead of corvettes ? Just cause I have 3 Nebs. In reality, I probably will go with 5 Corvettes and Salvation. I'm just trying to find ways to use my Nebs. They don't hit the table much. 1 Coranhann reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coranhann 93 Posted September 10, 2018 I feel you. I almost never play mine. Some of the best titles out there. One of the hardest ship to position correctly. 1 schmidty1701 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
