I played three games with the new titles for the first time last and had a blast. The defender was always my favorite ship, but its usefulness and shortcoming were very clear. Now, however, they play as the super fighter they were always meant to be.
We played scenario games (first time trying scenarios as well, 2 years into the hobby) and, while I didn't necessarily win every game, the triple Defender list just pummeled everything it came across. In a straight up dogfight these guys are nearly untouchable.
I ran Vessery with VI, Tractor Beam and the /D title, and two Onyx pilots with the /x7 title.
Nice job FFG ![]()
