Dodonna's Headbangers

By LazerJamez, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

My first salvo into Rebel lists.

392/400

Objectives:

Precision Strike

Fleet Ambush

Minefields

Admiral: Dodonna

MC30c

Foresight

Ordinance Experts

APT

TRC

MC30c

Admonition

Ordinance Experts

APT

TRC

CR90 Corvette B

Dodonna's Pride

Nebulon B Escort (Flagship)

Yavaris

Lando Calrissian

Squadrons:

Luke Skywalker

Wedge Antilles

A-wing

A-wing

B-wing

This is designed to work on larger ships. My theory is to pick a big target and shut it down. Fly the MC30's on the flanks of the CR 90. The CR 90 blocks a ships movement, trapping it in both MC 30 arcs. Yavaris flies behind those 3, positioning Luke and a B-wing for some double tapping fun or sending wedge and A-wings out as a screen.

Feedback would be most welcome, I've played a lot of Imperial but want to try a non-akbar/whale pod rebel fleet. Thanks in advance!

I should note the CR 90 is probably a sacrificial lamb, here.

Raymus Antilles might serve you better than Lando on Yavaris is the only thing I can suggest since he lets you add one more squadron to the double tap fold.

I respectfully disagree, Caldias. Yavaris is too high-priority of a target and too low-durability to run with Raymus. It's rare that you'll actually get more than one (or maaaayyybbbee 2) chances to use him to triple-activate. Lando is great for just that reason. He can buy you that second or third turn.

My line of thinking exactly, Conspicuous. I've seen too many instances where fleets B-line for Yavaris and it pops.

So what do you think, could the list be viable? I'll get the chance to fly it in about 2 weeks or so.

At first I was a little worried about the lack of hull pts, but I'm hoping a dump and run strategy will help with that.
