Lovely. I'm not sure about the MC30, it doesnt seem to fit with the forward facing Nebs. What was your thought here?

Rieekan isnt designed to suicide your ships, so you do need to put appropriate defense on the MC30, in this case Foresight and Lando. Also you can become a lot more potent by adding a few offensive items to bring the enemy down fast.
Named squadrons are affected by Rieekan, which makes Tycho and Jan with their counter a nightmare. You dont actually have to attack anyone as they can both choose to move around randomly instead of shooting.
Thanks for the input. You've really got me thinking about named fighters synergizing with Rieeken. The MC30 is there to get in close and do damage while the Nebs menace from long range. I actually was kind of planning to use the MC30 suicidally. I've seen one destroy an ISD at close range in two turns before (ISDs shields were already down, but it had almost full hull points). I figured if it would stay alive until the end of the round after it was destroyed it still might land a lot of damage, but it is a risky plan which will almost guarantee giving my opponents some points. I'm still tempted to try to keep that fourth Neb in the mix. Throwing sixteen dice at long range (spam concentrate fire) from my Neb wing sounds like it could be devastating. I was hoping to use the MC30 to bait my opponent into the Nebs' front arcs.
