Thoughts on this Imperial list?

By MorBlooD, in X-Wing

So still pretty new and dying to try this list. Any body tried it yet?

Firespray-31
Krassis
Heavy laser cannon
Mercenery copilot

Lambda Shuttle
Omicron group pilot
Gunner
Autoblaster

Tie Fighter
Academy Pilot

Tie Fighter
Academy Pilot

I'm afraid that the Shuttle will almost never get an Autoblaster kill, particularly if he doesn't have an Engine Upgrade.

HOWEVER:
If you drop the two Academy Pilots in favor of Captain Jonus (the Tie Bomber pilot), you can afford getting a HLC for your OGP as well.

You may drop Gunner at this point off of your Shuttle, in favor of an Engine Upgrade, as you'll not be missing, and need the mobility.


Another alternative: Drop the Autoblaster and Merc Co-Pilot in favor of a Fire Control System and Engine Upgrade on the Shuttle. This way, your second (Gunner'd) attack will ALWAYS be Target Locked, and you have the mobility boost from the EU as well.

I would suggest another Firespray instead of the Lambda if you have it. If you don't, then go with a Lambda build such as:

OGP

EU

Adv. Sensors

28 pts

OR

OGP

Vader

24 pts (I would up your ties to Obsidian so they can whittle the shields off first so Vaders attack can get thru.)

OR

OGP

FCS

Gunner

28pts

OR

OGP

EU

SJ

29pts

I would suggest another Firespray instead of the Lambda if you have it. If you don't, then go with a Lambda build such as:

I actually prefer the 32 point OGP + FCS + Gunner + Engine Upgrade build to a Bounty Hunter, and they both still have a crew and cannon slot open.

I was looking to see if it was a ships in hand issue as the OP doesn't list the ships he has available in his sig. I would take a BH over a OGP for ease of flying, but a buzzsaw Lambda is quite the threat, as long as you know how to fly it.

AH i see what you mean! Thanks guys... Yeah i wish i could use another firespray-31 maybe next month lol ;) so this is what ill try later let u guys know how it goes...

It was pretty fun, Imps won with a tie, tie int and shuttle left also all with only 1 hull left :lol:

And during this game did you discover why everyone suggests having Engine upgrade on the Pearly Nebula Mammoth?
