I'll be running this in an upcoming Vassal tournament:

Scimitar, 2xProton Rockets, Stealth device (25)

Scimitar, 2xProton Rockets, Stealth device (25)

Scimitar, 2xProton Rockets, Stealth device (25)

Scimitar, 2xProton Rockets, Stealth device (25)

I call it Nachthexen. Since it would take 4 boxes of Rebel Aces to run in realspace, I'll likely only ever use a couple of 'em in a meat list.

don't underestimat the power of the proxmine. It works especially well with low PS ships. On the joust, you can drop it right in their teeth before you kturn. It they blitz you, you can stuff them with these, and 2 or 3 of them strung out in a line are almost impossible to avoid.

Proxys also make them rethink their movements or if anything else you can drop it down to make another hazard on the map. Now that I think about it I REALLY want Squad Leader so that you can keep moving in formation then have Jonus let Scimitars or Gammas Drop their Proxy. That'll discourage people from Korrigan turning behind you I would think.

I like my "Vader and the Jonus Brothers" setup.

Vader with Expose and Stealth Device (36 pts)

Jonus in his underwear (22 pts)

Scimitar Squadron with Assault Missiles (21 pts)

Scimitar Squadron with Assault Missiles (21 pts)

Pretty good alpha strike with teh two Assault Missiles and Jonus re-rolls. Vader is there to finish ships off. I thought about dropping Expose for two Seismic Charges on the Scimitars o they can get you coming and going.

Any tips on flying bombers?

I've tried using two in the past and found that with low PS ships that my opponent either focus fires and sometimes can manage to kill one before it gets to shoot, or he gets in range one before I can shoot any missles.

I guess cluster or advanced proton torpedoes, but that's a lot of points.

I've thought about using Jendon and three bombers. I've also seen that used with good success.

Since he can get target locks early with the shuttle title and pass it on leaving the bombers to focus with their action.

Concussion missles is what I was thinking.

Another idea I Thought was 4 bombers with howl, and maybe Backstabber.

Bombers are fast, but not nimble. They have a 5 K-Turn and the only hard turn they have is at 3 so they tend to drive like a boat. Not nearly as nimble as their TIE brethren, so they can be tough to fly around in formation.

A fun bomber idea? A scimatar with proximity mines flying around, with vader + squad leader manually activating his payload at the end of the round after everyone thought it was safe.

Well... sounds fun to me... probably not competitive, but positively wacky
