i want to fit HLC on vestry put i don't know what to change. what would you suggest?

Defender with HLC isn't a productive build with Vader or Fel. Just not enough points.

Here's an idea.

Omicron Group Pilot — Lambda-Class Shuttle 21

Emperor Palpatine 8

Ship Total: 29

Colonel Vessery — TIE Defender 35

Veteran Instincts 1

Heavy Laser Cannon 7

Ship Total: 43

"Omega Leader" — TIE/fo Fighter 21

Juke 2

Comm Relay 3

Ship Total: 26

I like that build.

This totally depends on how adaptability works, but I have been toying with the following idea for a while.

Using adaptability to lower Vader's PS puts him in line with your other pilots - allowing all 3 of them to take advantage of Tractor Beam. And on the flip side - you can raise his PS to combat guys like Whisper, or other PS 9 pilots.

It also allows for a little wiggle room in terms of points, Mk-II engine on Vessery is always a welcome choice.
