Won a store tournament with a Hutt Cartel on Sunday...

I also think that 4 x Kihraxz and Serrisu w/ Hull Upgrade (or was it shield?) would do well. Have Serrissu just turtle every turn and hang near the Kihraxz. Who does your opponent shoot at? The ships that cause damage or the ship that lets them evade damage? The number of shots to take out Serrisu should allow the Kihraxz to put the hurt on your opponent and let you pull through. Well....that's the theory.

4 Cartel Marauders + Serissu totals 100 points, so no room for anything else on Serissu. It would still be interesting to try.

Odd....OK. I could've sworn I counted it up before and had a few spare points. Oh, well! Faulty memory.

I really enjoyed that game.

I was wanting to target the sycks but you set them up the in the corner and the khirax in the middle and thought "if I go for the syck those kirax will corner me". So I went for the Khirax first. The maneuverability of your ships was incredible, I just couldnt keep them out of arc. Iv used Kath and Kavil in different combos. But Kavil with TLT and Proton Bombs is a really good combo.

Hi Robert, god to hear from you! Yeah, it was an amazing game and a really fun match to end a great day. Kavil totally caught me off guard with the Proton Bomb, and having to try and keep your ships in arc knowing Kath was throwing an extra dice out the rear arc and both ships had all manner of nastiness on board didn't help my last-match nerves at all. I thought I'd blown it on the debris field pile-up!

That was my strategy for most of the games to be honest - try to make the Kihraxz a more appealing target than the Scyks to start with, then just sneak them around at long range.

Definitely going to try Proton Bomb Kavil myself now, it looked like all kinds of fun!

The thing Iv found with Kavil and bombs is to use them as a deterent for those getting within the TLT donut , but to watch out for an opportunity to use them.

Before TLT Kavil was not that great, Blaster turret really needs the R4 agromech to make up for the loss of action to fire it.

The cost of which is the same as a TLT, but with TLT you get to use your action. Having Kavil lose his action and not be able to shoot was frustrating
