MC80 Assault Cruiser - Admiral Ackbar - Enhanced Armament (162)
Assault Frigate Mark II B - Enhanced Armament (82)
Assault Frigate Mark II B - Enhanced Armament (82)
Scurrg H-6 Bomber (16)
Scurrg H-6 Bomber (16)
X-wing Squadron (13)
X-wing Squadron (13)
X-wing Squadron (13)
Other option is to drop EA off of the cruiser and put in defiance and upgrade a Scurrg to Nym
What objectives?
I think EA might be overkill since you already get 2 free reds from Ackbar. XI7 would probably get you more mileage than the EA. Don't know if XI7 gets you more mileage than the pair you named though, that's probably a personal call.
I would drop the EA for Gunnery Teams on the Assault Frigates and Home One + ECM on the MC-80.
You may end up outnumbered with 3 ships. The Gunnery Teams will give you significantly more shots each round. Home One will make those 4 shots on the Assault Frigates much more effective.
I agree with shmitty go x17 and gunnery team on the guppies. And home one and ecm on the mc80. Would also look at dropping the bombers and go 3 a wings. So 2 black 2blue with crits for 3 black but can handle imp fighters if they bring a rhymer ball
Thanks for the help everyone. I went with the 2 guppies with gunnery and x17. Also went with home 1, ECM and akbar.....
thanks for all of the input. needed to streamline a little. I will give some updates on how the tournament goes today. may even post between rounds.
objectives are advanced gunnery, fire lanes and dangerous territory.. i was going to take the bomber objective but without running all bomber class squadrons it doesnt seem worth it. and I figure with the firepower I can output, my opponent will not want to voluntarilly take damage from obstacles during the mission.....and then well, fire lanes -- all that firepower....
After 2 rounds, undefeated. Played against rebel with home 1, frigate, mc30 and corvette. Most wanted mission. We knocked out each others objective ships and I lost a couple x wing. Won 444 to 183.
Round 2 went against imperial star destroyer, demolisher and 2 raiders withe tie swarm. Akbar ability is so op. Took out 2 raiders in one turn with gunnery teams. Came down to home one versus the isd. Took him down with squadrons at the end of turn 6 for a 400 to 243 victory. Mission was contested outpost.
Forgot to update
Third round I went against a similar list, he had Defiance, Mark II B Frigate and an MC30 with YT-2400 and Tycho. I incorrectly selected hyperspace assault and his MC 30 pinned down my home one head on. Could never get akbar up the field to lay down some fire and each of my frigates got picked off one by one. lost 1-9. Tied for second place but MOV gave me the tie break.
