Think I'm going to run this on my league night this week:

Squadron 280 (100/100)

=====================

Firespray-31: Kath Scarlet (38 + 11)

+ Predator (3)

+ Seismic Charges (2)

+ Recon Specialist (3)

+ Andrasta (0)

+ Inertial Dampeners (1)

+ Seismic Charges (2)

Z-95: N'dru Suhlak (17 + 6)

+ Lone Wolf (2)

+ Cluster Missiles (4)

Z-95: Binayre Pirate (12 + 2)

+ Feedback Array (2)

Z-95: Binayre Pirate (12 + 2)

+ Feedback Array (2)

I tried a similar list last week but with Boba rather that Kath, and only APT on N'dru, he was killed before firing half the time, but the firespray + pirates did well enough I thought I'd give it a tweak and try again... Thoughts?

I like it. If you want to keep N'Dru around longer, you could drop those last 3 upgrades on Kath to give him a Hull Upgrade.

I was toying with that idea, or with dropping Ndru fir two more pirates, and flying then as a separate miniswarm rather than as a screen for Kath, if course them I'd be tempted to put outmaneuver on her instead...

Or just put dead mans switch on N'Dru to make guys think twice about focusing down on him?

Hm, could dip the second bomb to give ndru a switch, hadn't considered that, nobody is going to want to fly behind Kath anyway...

Not a bad list, but Andrasta works best on the other firespray pilot imo.

Here are some ideas that work with kath

Ptl

K4 security Droid

This gives you access to all her action bar so long as you do a green maneuver

Focus,evade and target lock

Downside is can become predictable

Expose

Experimental interface

K4

This is best to be used only situational.

Rear range 1 shot, or front for that matter

Or when your in a good position Noone may shoot at you etc.

Do a green maneuver

Aquire Target lock

Focus

Experimental interface kicks in

Expose

World of hurt

Especially if range 1 rear arc

6 attack dice with a focus and target lock

K4 security Droid is great for that fact if you get blocked you still get that target lock.

Another option

Ptl

Recon specialist

Engine upgrade

Gives you option to boost out of arcs possibly

Or turtle up with two focus and evade for when you are in trouble

Don't always ptl if it's not needed As you do become very predictable with the Firespray dial.

For a kill shot you also can target lock and duel focus

I think you are right about the title, it was left over from flying boba, control lists are fairly common in my area though so I tend to avoid ptl and ei. I also don't really care for expose, I would only use it when I'm not going to be fired upon but even then outmaneuver is effectively similar (better against ships with autothrusters) and doesn't use an action, I do need to try out K4 still though!

Yeah bombs aren't quite as good on Kath when your opponent might be trying to avoid flying behind her anyway. You might be better off with two more pirates instead of N'Dru, because it's more difficult than one might thing to keep him beyond range 2 of friendlies with more than 2 other ships, especially when one of them is large.
