Let's find out.

In recent Experimantation the Imperial Navy board decided to Create and test a series of "Pocket Battleships" based on the Designs of Certain Small Warships. Most notible of these are the Gladiator class Star Destroyer and the new Raider class Corvette. While this "pocket battleships" will never Replace the ISD as the main ship of the Imperial Navy, The board Hopes that they will add a cost effective platform to bring Devastating supplemental Firepower to the Fleet.


Last night a fleet was assembled for final testing of these Modified Ships and the results were pleasing to the Emperor.

The Test Fleet was Led by Admiral Screed, one of the Founders of this tactical philosophy, and consided of:

an Improved Gladiator class Named Demolisher: modified with improved engines, (engine techs) refit that replaced much of its hanger with more torpedo and missile batteries (expanded launchers). It's crew was also specially Trained with the use of missiles and countering defences(Intel officer, ordinance experts)

Two Improved Raider class Corvettes named Dagger and Xiphos: equipped with Expanded Launchers and Weapon Specialists (expanded launchers, ordinance experts, Intel Officer)

The rest of the Fleet Consisted of 2 Standard Raider Corvettes to Support the Pocket Battle ships including:

Instigator:(Ordinance Experts, Assault Proton Torpedoes)

Dirk:(admiral montferret, Assault Proton Torpedoes, Admiral Screed, Ordinance Experts)



Our staff is processing the reports now and will Provide details for the skirmish as soon as possible.

I was first player and once again selected Precision strike from his objective list.

turn 1:

thanks to my opponent, this was his first vassal game and he was an excellent sport (after all I did kill his "must not die ship" on turn 2 before it had done anything) Good luck in your future games

That is one Glass cannon build you have there.

I'd be sorely tempted to lose a Raider, probably Instigator, and get some Firesprays to harass any Rebel scum or traitor Moffs who have the audacity to bring filthy squadrons against you :-)

I'm excited to hear about this. I was thinking of doing something similar, but with Darth Vader as my admiral.

Hmmm I think I will do something like this but with a Pocket Carrier build

I was originally going to have Vader but after testing decided screed was better for me

also added all of my opponents lists and a battle report for my 3rd game
