I'm trying to build a 150pt Imperial list for a local tournament coming up.

I own all of the Imperial ships and have no problem buying any others I may need.

Anyway, I really like the idea of 2 large ships with some smaller support/hunter ships.

I usually run TIE swarm, so am looking for some advice on this build (even if it is, don't use those ships at all!)

Cpt Oicunn VT-49: Tactical Jammer, Darth Vader, Mara Jade, Intel Agent

Krassis Trelix Firespray-31: Mangler Cannon, Gunner

4 Academy Pilots TIE Fighters (Or 1 named and 2 generic TIEs)

I think Vader is much better on the VT-49 and I am considering Proton Bombs on it as well.

I like the idea of the VT-49 being the tip of my spear, running right at the enemy to block (and obstruct). The Firespray being the big hitter with TIEs supporting and chasing down severly damaged runners.

Any and all advice/criticism is welcome!

Thanks

If you're not set on having specifically 2 large base ships, you could really focus more on a swarm with benefits

Something like:

Colonel Jendon, weapons engineer, ST-321

Colonel Vessary, HLC

"Howlrunner"

Dark Curse

Backstabber

Academy Pilot x 2

Fun with Target Locks!

add a swarm with the rest of the points
