Has anybody test run the TIE Shuttle with crew alongside anything yet? I haven't been able to test fly anything due to sickness, it would be much appreciated if anyone did if they could post their experiences with it here.

Much wuv.

Jonus + Fleet Officer is amazing, particularly when flying with cannons.

Scimitar + Mara Jade is great control

Scimitar + Vader is a decent option; its like a doomshuttle that self-kills faster, but can actually last into the endgame if you don't.

With the DoomBomber I consider adding a Hull Upgrade which could get you one more use out of Vader.

5x Scimitars with Tactician. Give one of them Mara Jade to boot.

Utterly dismal damage output, but hilarious all the same.

5x Bombers with Tactician has bad damage output and is probably a bad tactic ...The irony....

You could always have the Emperor fly it in circles away from the battle.....

You cant have Palpi ride in a bomber.

22 points. Only two off of the actual Doom Shuttle.

Gamma Vet. with Ysanne, Rebel Captive, Juke, Twin ion engine - 29 points could be fun to run

It's an excellent platform for fleet officer other options were either too expensive or had trouble shedding the stress but tie shuttle is great at 19 points for boosting other ships.

Thanks for the replies. I'm extremely curious what the Systems Officer card from Imperial Veterans is going to do.

I was looking at a build last night that started with a Gamma + Shuttle Title + Fleet Officer + Recon Specialist = 24 pts.

I managed to fill out the list with two TAPs and two Ties...

My bad, I thought it said remove all ordinance slots and gain 2 crew slots on the Tie Shuttle card.

Oh ok, was that FAQd? (Don't own the card and the Google search show's just imperial only)

The shuttle upgrade limits crew to 4pts and under. So no gunner either.

Ah, yes, couldn't remember the exact restriction...

Oh, my bad gotcha

A Scimitar with Mara Jade and Intel Officer should make for one of the most annoying blockers in the game.

Unless I am missing a FAQ of some kind, Fleet Officer and RecSpec don't interact. RecSpec only triggers when you take a focus action and Fleet Officer is it's own unique action.

Blocker?

Heck, the thing has a 5 Koiogran.

You can easily invade and fly in formation with their entire fleet with that set-up

Turn 1: 5 forward. "That's a bit aggressive..."

Turn 2: 5k into the middle of their formation. "Well, smeg... I guess everyone is taking stress"

Turn 3: 2 forward. "Welp, I guess they're taking stress again..."

With Intel Agent, you can even Barrel-Roll to ensure it

For 20 total points, 21 if you add TIE mk 2
