I just got the Most Wanted expansion, but am unsure of what to use, or what ships to get. Any suggestions?
Ship list in sig.
Just got some Scum ships. What is a good list?
I'm about to try the list below. You have the ships for this but may have to proxy some of the cards. The idea is to use PTL and Boost to get Kath as many rear arc shots as possible, to keep N'dru where he can loose the missiles to maximum effect, and to use Kavil to take potshots out of arc while they hunt the other two.
Unfortunately you don't have a K-Wing at the moment, because Scum Y with unhinged or R4 salvaged astromechs and TLTs form a solid base to mix with a number of ships.
Couple of ship builds which you can do:
Kavil, Autoblaster turret, Engine upgrade, unhinged (can also add torps and bombs to taste) - very fast, hits hard with the extra dice out of arc.
Boba, Tactician, Engine Upgrade, VI, (proton bomb/autoblaster - I prefer auto blaster). - Awesome against most arc dodgers and can one shot a turtled interceptor if auto blaster equipped.
Kath, Predator, Gunner, Engine Upgrade.
Y-wing, auto blaster, unhinged, Flechette torps, seismic/ion
Torkil Mux, TLT, RecSpec
I reckon the scum Firespray pilots are some of the best, Emon is hilarious with Prox, Prox, Proton load out (add engine and tactician for additional lulz).
Big thing right now is tlt. Comes with the kwing
Tlt Goes great on ywing.
Having two ywing in a list and then an ace and or a couple of other ships can do well.
Plus the kwing are fun
Marinda is a beast
Team her with poe and a stressbot ywing and let the fun continue
I'm probably going to get the K-wing tomorrow if the store has some. Any scum ships I should get other than the starviper?
IG2000 X 2
Two of these Aggressors paired up (IG88 B and C) just kick butt and do it better than any other Scum ships when it comes to attacking with strength and power.
Definitely the viper. I didn't even like that ship until I flew it. II wouldn't go overboard just yet though simply because the wave 8 scum will be out soon.. unless you've already ordered them like me. Scum Ys and vipers are solid, firesprays and z95s too. IMO all crossover ships are better in scum. Things like the x1 and ATC i buy separately or trade for..

Except, just start with one. Pair an aggressor with TLT Y, or Boba or a YV, or something. 2 IG's is too easy to block and stress in this meta.
Of course you don't have to buy the whole ship to get the card. Somewhere like Blue Rat Games can sell you cards individually. They are UK based. There are others.
I tried this list, and won a game with it. Any way to improve?

I already posted my build in another thread. I run Kihraxz Fighters. 5 of them were successful in Tournaments. I run 4 myself however. I think they are the most over looked Scum ship.
As for these Large Ship Builds.. I will warn everyone here that a large ship DID NOT make it to the World Tournament final (2015). The Large Ship builds were destroyed very early on. The Final with Paul was Poe Dameron, Coran Horn, and an A-Wing versus a Poe Dameron and some Y-Wings. I highly suggest you spend the time to see the replays.

Honestly, more and more I'm starting to lean away from IG-88C. D gives you the hard turn S-Loops, which are criminally underrated and allows for some incredibly position shenanigans/reaction, and with the shift away from two ships IG-88A is finally becoming a solid option.
B, however, is still the god among bots.
No large ships in the finals but I think there were a pair of IGs in the semis do they did pretty well and with the recent changes in relation to large ships are still pretty nasty

Right. And I hate to blame the dice, but when that player went up against the second-place player, his alpha strike of Glitter Stim, Crack Shot, and Heavy Laser Cannon from two IG-2000s with B's ability active only dealt one or two damage, if I recall correctly. With an alpha strike like that, you're really hoping to take a ship off the board during the first turn. So what I'm trying to say is that IG-2000 had a very real chance of making it to the final table.
