Decimator suggestions need for newish player

By bmwrider, in X-Wing

I like Nova Squadron Radio, but I find they are quick to fall prey to the "meta" and dismiss things out of hand. They just trashed the Tie Bomber when I think there are uses for it. Still, a good show. Just keep an open mind about things.

Well, there is slightly more thought that goes into it than simply "it's not being used right now so we will just dismiss it". :) Hopefully the math fundamentals on the show help to shed some light on explaining why the meta is what it is. Thanks for listening!

Related to the OP, Decimators can be played many different ways, with a lot of different support ships. Some crew are really good and should be at least considered in any build (like Isard or Rebel Captive). The best advice is to try building something, put it on the table and learn what you like or dislike about it!

I couldn't have said it better myself MJ! Thanks!

I'm not saying you guys are bad at all. I did promote you.

There were a few issues I had with the last episode and posted my thoughts in the thread that talked about the episode's release. I won't go through them here. I think you guys do a good show, but I was disappointed that there were a few things that were missed, in my humble opinion. "My Name is Jonus" is just one of those.

Lots of suggestions for cards the OP has said he doesn't have.

Try the falcon replacement:

kenkirk wih ysanne, gunner, moff, and determination.

Or the prototypical rammer:

Oicun, Mara jade, dauntless title, (gunner, ysanne, determination, bombs even)

No-ones suggested weapons engineer and engine upgrade?

Why not?
