do you watch Dr. Who?

The Big O Death Roll (or perhaps Darth Roll when Vadering) is certainly not going to happen all day long but when talking about potential power, it holds a lot. Pretty sure the double ram with a EU and no Vader/gunner is still going to nasty enough but when flying Big O sometimes you have to go Big Or don't bother coming home!

Other interactions include but are not limited to: mines, proton bombs, Experimental interface, and sabatuer.

Add Kir and a bomber and you're looking at alpha striking pretty much anything in the game outside of a fat falcon/decimator with auto-damage alone when paired with the above combo. And that's bare minimum.

Big O will be awesome vs. all those high PS lists:

Step 1: you move. ram for one damage

Step 2: dauntless to daredevil to ram again. 2 damage

Step 3: they move.

Step 4: shoot with 360 gunner, Vader. Should be at 4-8 DMG with hit

Step 4b: trigger gunner if miss. Trigger Vader again. Should be at 5-9 DMG

All profit.

I shrugged it off as "meh" until you wrote it out step by step.

Jeebus.

The downside is with two vaders per turn, you're taking 4 hits yourself. That's 25% of the VTs health, not counting any damage that it takes from return fire. That massive chunk of points has some good burst damage but it won't be around very long at this rate. Sans Vader, I'd be up for it though

To be fair, I'd say Vader would be better on the base model decimator, maybe gunner or maybe not. The other decimator can be the battering ram, or one of the turret specialists.

Love this thread topic btw. Gonna start calling it that.

This is a very interesting thread, but I have been stuck on the question, "Is 'BOOP' supposed to represent the sound of a battering ram?".

I'm very confused.

Using Daredevil + Dauntless for double ram is genius, though. Effective? Not sure, without Engine Upgrade.

The Emperor approves.

Personally, I'd do something like this: Captain Oicunn (42) + Daredevil (3) + Mara Jade (3) + Gunner (5) + Dauntless (2) + Engine Upgrade (4). That leaves 41 points, which is enough for a lot of different escort options.

I'd switch gunner for Merc copilot, or just include it.
