List some of your best scum builds
Looking for some scum motivation
Preferably using the kihraxz fighter, I don't think I've used it once
I have a ton of Rebel and imperial builds but looking for something decent for scum
Maybe even a starviper

This has done well for me in casual play:

...if you want to use a Khiraxz then you can take Kavil out and add Talonbane Cobra with Glitterstim and Crackshot for the same 31 point cost, although the list is designed to all be at PS7 so I can activate them in whatever order I choose for maximum efficiency and effect.
Edited by WaldorfYa that's an option
N'dru never seemed to work well for me. Though it's a decent option
Guess I should have mentioned nothing with tlt
My friends are kind of sick of turrets so I'm trying to come up with something different, but fun to fly and fly against
So no stress builds or tlt for me I'm afraid
I was thinking of running tie swarm but I haven't flown scum in ages
K-fighter I've been disappointed with. Had high hopes for it.
IGs are fun but probably a bit old.
I really like the Scum HWK pilots. Give them some support and should be able to have a fun list.
Kfighter is a swell generic whether naked or crackshot stims on an ace
For me, Scum's whole shebang is dice mods. No one else gets r4, stims, k4; bossk etc. And they're at their best when dice aren't getting you down
Xizor is great as he is both offensive with rerolls ala predator/FCS and defensive with thrusters + ability
So,
Xizor (predator or v.I + virago + FCS; thrusters)
Thug (TLT or ICT + BTL-a4, r4)
Slaver (gunner + bossk)
Maruader (Nada)
Blacksun ace (crackshot + stims)
Are my scummy building blocks
MUX and Palob both have ridiculous abilities worth taking advantage of
For lists,
Xizor (v.I variant) + TLT thug + slaver makes for a powerful punch
Xizor (v.I variant) + two ICT btl-a4s + pirate is a scary jousting list
Xizor (predator + thrusters) + 2 crackstim aces + pirate is another option.
Had a lot of fun using Mux (TLT + recon) with predator xizor or guri and 3 pirates
Lastly, took 2nd place at a local tournie with this silliness:
Guri (jammers + virago, predator and thrusters)
Palob (tlt + recon)
Thug (tlt + r4 + bomb + seismic + extra)
Lots of 200-0 games with the turrets limping at one hull but no partial credit due to small bases. VERY unforgiving, though ![]()
Wave 8 opens up dorsal turrets for cheap Palob (26 w/title) and fully modified torp boat jump masters
Have had a lot of fun and success with:
Scum Boba
EU
VI
Cluster Missiles
Tactician
Glitterstim
Either double-stress an Ace at range 2, or just flat out blow something up with Glitterstim and re-rolls.
A fun one for casual play was Latts with bossk, tactician, gunner feedback array. Talonbane with glittercrack. And N'dru with glitter lone wolf and cluster. Either the opponent goes boom or you do but either way it's a fun time.
If you're looking for Khiraxz + Viper, Fickle's list above is a good one.
As a variation, you can run 3 cartel marauders alongside Guri. I wouldn't call it top tier, but its not bad at all:
Guri w/ predator, virago, sensor jammer & autothrusters = 40
3 cartel marauders = 20 x 3
100
