My First Tournament List (Empire @ 300)

By DocCheech17, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Howdy Everyone,

FLG is having its first Armada tournament and I'm going to give it try, I'm still fairly new to the game but here is what I'm thinking about running, any feedback is greatly appreciated:

VSD II - (Admiral Screed, Overload Pulse)

VSD I

GSD I (Expanded Launchers, Demolisher)

Tie Advance

Tie Fighter

Tie Fighter

Advanced Gunnery

Hyperspace Assault

Intel Sweep

Basic idea is for the flagship (VSD II) to lurk back a bit and utilize its blue dice at medium range, setting up the VSD I for hopefully a massive shot later in the round. The GSD is flanker who will go after what I ever see as a priority target and unleash as much black dice as possible. I know that I have a small fighter wing but the idea for them is to simply tie (no pun intended) up enemy bombers for the first few rounds.

What do you all think?

I like it. The tying up of fighters could be held better by just two interceptors or you could just go all ships.

Usually people go with assault concussion missiles over EL, But I have seen it work...It's just riskier than a for sure 2 damage. Especially if It's the last ship going after your vsds shoot. But demolisher loves going last then first in the next round, if you have initiative. Having the demolisher lurk behind the vsds, wait for overload pulse to go off, have vsd 1 pot shot then go in for the demo kill against a nearly defenseless ship could prove lethal with a next round demo activation.
