Something I’m looking at for a tourney this weekend:

IG-88C [36]

- Push the Limit [3]

- Advanced Sensors [3]

- Autothrusters [2]

- Inertial Dampeners [1]

- Mangler Cannon [4]

[=49]

Guri [30]

- Virago [1]

- Push the Limit [3]

- Advanced Sensors [3]

- Autothrusters [2]

[=39]

Binayre Pirate [12]

[total=100]

Both Iggy and Guri can PtL with AS, then use the decent amount of Green on their dials to clear stress. Or, they can outmaneuver with a Boost or other action with AS, then Loop or (for Iggy) K-turn behind them.

I was thinking about different upgrades, but figured having a third ship was worthwhile, and a PS1 for a decent blocker.

Thoughts/advice?

I think that z-95 is free points for your opponent. You will be hard pressed to keep it alive, although that may be okay for you.

If you want to run 'mangler', then you should go with 'B'. IG88C really needs HLC. For that reason, I would suggest running IG88B instead---not only is he going to give your list some much needed gauranteed damage, but its easier than changing the list up to squeeze in the HLC on 'C'.
