I just got this ship and while its a nice looking ship it has no weapon hard points. I know it comes with an x-wing, pilots, and droids but am I missing what use this ship has other then story runs? I know it can be used for epic but I think I would use fighters or large ships for that.

Thanks for any light shed on this.

It is only meant for epic play. It is designed to support your other ships and perform ECM (electronic countermeasures) against the enemy. It is actually an excellent ship if used the right way, but it does not really start to pull it's weight until your a running 200 points or more.

check out comm booster and torryn farr. 2 of the best cards in the game. plop them on your transport and go have fun. there have been several threads on this lately, if you do a search you can find other build suggestions. I personally would run 2 comms boosters and torryn farr. be careful about putting too many upgrades on it, you will still need lots of ships with guns, after all.

Bright Hope + 2+ Comms Booster + Toryn Farr.. This is one of the best support ships in the game.

yes, good build right there. everyone keeps wanting to jam the enemy then run slicer tools. In my opinion, you are better off with the build above.

It is the single best support ship in the game. I'll take it over the cr-90 all day long.

The CR90 is a completely different beast. It is an attack ship, not a support ship.
