Possibly Terrifying?

Recommended Posts

Ok, so I’m trying not to be afraid of the Magnite Tractor Beam, but I think the potential of it just terrifies me. Not that it’s a bad thing, I guess, but... I dunno. Anyway, imagine something like this:

Ultra-Magnites

Author: Cpt ObVus 
Faction: Rebels
Commander: Admiral Raddus

[flagship] Starhawk-Class Battleship Mark I (140)
- Admiral Raddus (26)
- Concord (12)
- Jyn Erso (4)
- Leading Shots (4)
- Strategic Adviser (4)
- Raymus Antilles (7)
- Magnite Crystal Tractor Beam Array (10)
= 207 points

MC75 Ordnance Cruiser (100)
- Profundity (7)
- Electronic Countermeasures (7)
- Hardened Bulkheads (5)
- Intel Officer (7)
- Assault Concussion Missiles (7)
- External Racks (3)
- Caitken and Shollan (6)
= 142 points

Hammerhead Torpedo Corvette (36)
- Garel's Honor (4)
- External Racks (3)
- Ordnance Experts (4)
= 47 points

= 0 points

...the basic idea being that the Magnites drop the opponent’s best ship to speed zero, Raddus drops Profundity, Profundity drops Garel’s Honor, and the Alliance obliterates pretty much anything.

It’s not optimized, probably needs a bit more of a bid, but this is the sort of nothing-can-be-done scenario that the Magnites might create, and it kinda freaks me out. Opinions? Is it a good list? How would you improve it? How would you fight it?

This is my version. Hasn’t lost yet and deletes whatever you want.

Love it, and  almost feels unfair. Haven’t rigorously tested it yet though.

I think I like Boarding Troopers better than Jyn, but she might work. You need Cham on Garels Honor. He makes people very sad.

I've been running this with some success - the cham/rex combo may be a bit much, but it is satisfying when it lands
