Imperial CAP

By Stannicus, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Is this enough CAP? Looking to keep bombers off me so my Vics and Glads can get the job done.

I would guess so, the only list that would give you fits, would be someone who went squadron heavy and spent nearly the third of points on squads. Howlrunner and 4-6 stands of TIEs and you might be kissing those points away pretty quick.

But for the most part, that should be good CAP!

Have to agree with Jut. If someone goes squadron heavy you'll have some trouble. One of the lists I run for the rebels has enough fighters to tie up that CAP and let my bombers slip through. Again though, that's because it's a squadron heavy build.

Chewed this up with 3 B-wings, and Luke and Wedge working off Yavaris activations. Chewed up the Gladiator next turn.

For like 4 more points you could run howl plus 3 interceptors. They are glass cannons but can really eat up enemy fighters fast if used properly.

Thanks for all the input.
