Still unable to download via app. Same as last few episodes.
Yeah :-( This issue is likely going to persist while we'll figuring out better hosting solution plans. Sorry this keeps happening. :-(
So I'm compiling nice Wave 8 lists. I'd like to show some listener created lists you like with the new cards. Hopefully the wave is out by the time we record next.
Send me your lists!!!
Download still isn't working sadly...
6 tie swarm with Inquisitor acing for you:
Inquisitor + Juke + title + thrusters
Howl+ Crackshot
Black squadron + Crackshot
AP x3
Drop down to 5 ship and go Howl + Scourge + Mauler + blacksquad all with crackshot for an alpha striking swarm.
Love the show guys. Keep up the good work.
Out of curiosity why doesn't omega leader get more love? He seems like a great counter ace for the imps and I can't wait to fly it.

Part of it is that he's in a Tie/FO, part because even with his ability, he's still only throwing 2 dice (although juke makes him pretty scary), and mostly because he isn't out yet and people have mostly forgotten about him. With Juke and Comm Relay, he's already 26 points without a hull/stealth device so he's going to struggle to be a better choice than a 29 point shuttle + palp or even 32 point Soontir Fel in most of the good imperial lists. He will be a solid pilot though, at the very minimum.
Edited by AntigrapistI think he's going to be sweet at 26 points. You look at how much any ace relies on dice modification and you can see how hard he would counter so many different aces.
Omega leader+ juke+ comms + hull
Inquisitor + title + juke+ thrusters
Vess+ vi + Mangler + MKII
Imperial 8s. Will it be good enough?
Edited by Rakky WistolI actually like him with just vi, grab am out of arc target lock and pursue the target, he's got a great dial for it. Maybe take the comms relay so you can bank an early evade
It's only using illicit cloak but it makes Hawks target priority: awkward.
Torkil Mux — HWK-290 19
Cloaking Device 2
Ship Total: 21
Tansarii Point Veteran — M3-A Interceptor 17
Predator 3
"Mangler" Cannon 4
"Heavy Scyk" Interceptor (Cannon) 2
Ship Total: 26
3 scyks total
99 points.
With a very forward aggressive flying hawk that's always cloaked.
Edited by Shenannigananother issue with OL, is its good in the 2 ship meta where you're only in the arc of one of the heavy hitters, when you have 3-4 good hard hitting ships on the map and you're in the arc of 2-3 of them unlike with Dark Curse it only effects that one target he/she has locked.
28pt Inquisitor + 6 academy pilots!
Listening now, very great work guys! It was AWESOME to hang out with Mark and Lyle!
Little know fact, I watched the final table from a table near the food with Mark and Kris from our show on my laptop as the final table crowd was just overwhelming.

There are two ways to read this.
