I’m loving the skirmish rules!

Recommended Posts

As the title says I’m totally digging the new skirmish rules.  I like the army size and play time so much more now.  
 

anyone else trying out skirmish and if so what builds do you like so far?

These are two lists I'm considering. I had moderate success with two other lists - a Vader / Dewback combo, but lost in round 5 [edit] due to only holding 1 of 3 objective locations, and did fairly well with Veers / Bossk.

+ Commander +

•General Veers [80 Points]

+ Corps +

Shoretroopers [84 Points]: T-21B Trooper

Stormtroopers [68 Points]: DLT-19 Stormtrooper

Stormtroopers [68 Points]: DLT-19 Stormtrooper

+ Heavy +

AT-ST [200 Points]: 88 Twin Light Blaster Cannon, Imperial Hammers Elite Armor Pilot

+ Command Hand +

Command Hand: •Ambush, •Maximum Firepower, ••Pinned Down, ••Push, •••Coordinated Fire, •••Imperial Discipline, ••••Standing Orders


++ Skirmish (Galactic Empire) [499 Points] ++

+ Commander +

•Director Orson Krennic [95 Points]: Strict Orders

+ Corps +

DF-90 Mortar Trooper [41 Points]: Comms Relay

if you are playing official skirmish rules you only play 5 rounds not 6.

Nice lists BTW, I feel like having an ATST in a list is quite intimidating for opposing lists, I have yet to play a skirmish game but am keen to know how it plays with the objectives and whether a 200 point unit in your squad pulls its weight when it cant claim objectives.

Atst Can claim objectives in skirmish games.

Actually in skirmish every unit leader Can claim. And the atst is an unit leader.

But in skirmish, objectives are often to have more unit leader than your opponent. Si I Can understand it is better to have more units leader than your opponent. Unless you play elimination for which it should better to have few but very tough units
