In a world in which Discarded upgrades do not count towards the slain final, what list would you run?

That is to say, if I kill a Scimitar with its Proton Bomb still on board, it costs the 21 points it normally does. However, once the Bomb has been spent, it only costs 16.

Very, very, very, very bad idea with Margin of Victory as the tie breaker.

Clearly. However, how would you abuse that unfairness?

Take a lot of ordance so my force is worth less than my opponent. Less points for them to gain!

It would certainly make ordnance more attractive, however getting all of that ordnance off though is still tricky. As well as too much ordnance would then make it much more difficult to win and even though MoV is the tiebreaker a loss still hurts worse than giving up the MoV points

Fat Han ?

Wait, do discarded cards like Chewbacca Crew and Missiles count as part of the slain total even if the ship they were attached to survived until the end?

No.

In standard rules, all upgrades are counted as slain once the ship they rode into battle dies, irrespective of the upgrades' use or disuse.

In this idea, only upgrades that have not been discarded count when the ship they rode into battle dies.

The way I understand this challenge is the only point you "kill" are points that haven't otherwise been discarded. That's to say that if you load a Bomber full it may be worth 40+ points loaded but if it gets unloaded then it may only be worth 16 points.

I wonder about Bandit + Assault + Stealth (x5) although it has the issues with getting the TLs needed to fire.

Another thought could be Gamma + Stealth + Assault + Proton Rockets + Proton Bomb/SesmicCharge (x3). It may be a little harder to get all of the ordnance off but when it is you're just looking at 54 points of ships.
