Hyperspace assult or fleet ambush

By TIEActor, in Star Wars: Armada

I play rebels exclusivley, which scenario do you think favors rebs and like to use?

I prefer hyperspace over ambush I just think it is to easy for the ambushee to turn it on the ambusher

I love hyperspace assault. But I am imps. And I use insidious as my hype ship.

Can't wait to use a shrimp frigate as my hyp assult ship.

the correct answer is yavaris with Bs

Under no circumstances should you select Fleet Ambush as a rebel. You're giving any Imperial player a huge gap closer that quickly becomes an advantage for them. Hyperspace Assault is your best bet. Fire Lanes can also work well if you've got lots of long range firepower.

This is my last real decision for Sullust, which of the two is better for Imp vs Imp?

I think it's kind of a wash for Imp vs Imp. Fleet Ambush forces your opponent to split up. Hyperspace Assault helps you get great positioning. I would take Fleet Ambush overall in case you run into a Rebel. Rebels don't want to play Fleet Ambush on either side of the scenario. JJ Juggernaut forced me into that one in our last game. I pretty much setup my ships to run away as fast as possible. It still left me in a very bad position. I'm not terribly scared of an Imperial ship jumping in. I usually have the speed and flexibility to react well to a Hyperspace Assault as a Rebel.

1st player is...:P

Aside from that. I like to control the battlefield, I am willing to go second, to do that. I know that first activation can cost your enemy ships before they fire, but I firmly believe this can be trumped with good planning.

Fleet Ambush is close to useless IMO: the chances of it backfiring are much too great to use it.

Question again on this topic, when it says deploy within one, is it completely with in one or the edge of your base touching range one.
