Karneck 1,990 Posted August 10, 2019 (edited) Will this list win against anything? I don't think so, but doesn't mean I still don't want to fly it!

CISAdmiral 11 Posted August 14, 2019 (edited) The upgrades on your ships don't look as efficient as they could be, this would be my take on your list: ISD Kuat Refit (112) • Grand Admiral Thrawn (32) • Gunnery Team (7) • Reinforced Blast Doors (5) • Leading Shots (4) • Assault Concussion Missiles (7) • Avenger (5) = 172 Points Victory II (85) • Minister Tua (2) • Gunnery Team (7) • Quad Battery Turrets (5) • Overload Pulse (8) • Reinforced Blast Doors (5) = 112 Points Gladiator I (56) • Ordnance Experts (4) • Engine Techs (8) • Assault Concussion Missiles (7) • Demolisher (10) = 85 Points Gozanti Assault Carriers (28) • Comms Net (2) = 30 Points Squadrons: = 0 Points Total Points: 399 Edited August 14, 2019 by CISAdmiral 1 Bertie Wooster reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flatpackhamster 682 Posted August 14, 2019 Is Thrawn the best commander here? I ask because as I have played him, his job is to give me dials for my ships that I would not otherwise have easy access to. So I have usually taken 1 engineering and 2 squadron dials. But you don't have any squadrons at all so you have 1 fewer dial that you need - so is Thrawn going to give you any value? You haven't got a pressing need for extra dials like you would have with (say) VSDs and a largeish squadron complement. Ozzel or Jerjerrod instead?

Always be Navigating(TM) with 3 Turns of Engineering Bonus Its like JJ without taking shield damage, and still bonus Engineering.

Karneck 1,990 Posted August 15, 2019 Dras has nailed it, the combo of Nav and Engineering ensures my squadronless ships makes it through the initial angry swarms to reach their targets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flatpackhamster 682 Posted August 15, 2019 I see, that's an interesting use which I hadn't thought of. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedDogReb 141 Posted August 15, 2019 Would the VSD be left behind? I guess you want to go fast (speed 3) with Kuat and GSD to get most use out of black dice, but going speed 3 leaves the VSD behind to the tender mercies of any squadrons you face. If you have all your ships at speed 2 to stay with VSD, you don’t get the black dice early. Just my 2p worth. I have a list with a Kuat, 2x GSD (Demo and Insidious), 2 Gozantis and no squadrons. The sole plan is fly fast, get in quick, Hammer stuff with lots of black dice! I considered VSDs but their speed was the draw back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
