Triple-action triple defenders (who also have a 3/3/3/3 stat line). I have a prediction for the Attanni Mind Link EPT in the Punishing One expansion, and if I'm right I think it would work quite well with Vessery and two Glaive Squadron defenders:
Attanni Mind Link
Each time you are assigned
a focus or stress token,
each other friendly ship with
Attanni Mind Link must also
be assigned the same type
of token if it doesn't
already have one.
1 point
This fits the visible text and spacing in the Punishing One preview photo and I think fits thematically as well. The cost is just a guess, though. If that's what it turns out to be, it allows the list:
Colonel Vessery + TIE/x7 + Attanni Mind Link (34)
Glaive Squadron Pilot + TIE/x7 + Attanni Mind Link (33)
Glaive Squadron Pilot + TIE/x7 + Attanni Mind Link (33)
Each round, Vessery can focus (giving focus to the Glaives), and the Glaives can target lock (giving TL to Vessery when he attacks). So they can all get evade (from x7), focus, and TL every round. The stress sharing would of course an issue, but less so for defenders than most ships due to the white 4K. If Attanni Mind Link comes out at 0 points, you could also add Twin Ion Engine Mk. II to all of them to make it easier to shed the group stress when it does happen.
This is all speculation and guesswork, of course, but it's a list I'll be excited to fly if my guess is right.
