I know it's not the straight 9s people are used to with Vader. The meta in my area is starting to trend more towards swarms.

I really like the looks of that squad. If I made any change, it'd be to drop VI on Vader for Calculation, giving him possible opportunities to regularly lay two crits on a target a turn... and, unless your meta is absolutely insane, I can't imagine you'd regularly need PS11. Then again, maybe it's Soontir Fel all day every day.

There are a few Han shoots 1st and some PS10 Rex's out there.

Plus with swarms being on the rise I've thought about ruthlessness on Vader as well
