Right so I have three lists for a tournament.

2 bounty hunters with gunner

Doom shuttle

100

2 bounty hunters

Ogp, fcs, gunner, tactician, engine upgrade.

100

So 2 similar lists, but obviously with different strengths. I ran a list similar to the first one, with mixed results, but I feel more confident using 2 firesprays now then I did before.

Last list is my take on a 6 tie swarm.

Howlrunner, determination, hull upgrade

2 academy pilots

3 alpha pilots.

100

I could go for swarm on howl instead, but she's such a target I'd probably only get to use it once. I'm not confident with swarms, but I've flown a 5 ship swarm to decent success.

I would do the swarm, but drop determination from Howl. Determination is an awful card.

A card that can ignore a crit if it's a pilot crit is awful? Do you really feel saving 1 point for potential initiative bidding is worth it with that swarm list?

Determination on Howlrunner is pure gold, as you don't want to lose the ability you take her for in the first place.

I didn't say to leave it for init neccesarily, there are other 1 point upgrades. The problem with Determination is that it only works on pilot crits and there are only 8 pilot crits in the whole deck.

Well it's either that or adrenaline rush, draw their fire or deadeye at the moment.

My logic is that if it stops 1 or 2 crits over the tournament then it's a success. Especially as it just discards the crit rather then flipping it over.

But adrenaline rush can also be nice sometimes.

If Determination actually goes off its awesome. For 1 point you can stop a damage and a nasty crit. If it never goes off.. big deal it was only a point.

So, any thoughts on the other 2 lists or should I just fly the swarm? Having a league game tonight so that's one game with rebels and one with imperials..
