Nebulon-B Support Frigate (81pts) [•Mon Mothma]

Nebulon-B Support Frigate (51pts)

+ Objectives +

Assault Objective [Most Wanted]

Defense Objective [Fire Lanes]

Navigation Objective [superior Positions]

I'd risk the bid and include both Salvation and Redemption.

Alternatively, maybe Riekaan would do well in this. Rushdown forward and anything that dies spears the target ship for an extra HP.

How do you see MM functioning on ships with only one Evade token?

Mon Mothma actually works wonders.

She allows me to counter act critical effects and survive at the ranges I want to.

This fleet wanted second. I can't fit both Redemption and Salvation into the list and I need a scape goat neb for Most Wanted.

Ha! Cool. I hope it does well.

I like the Nebulon-B, having two braces means it pretty much halves all the significant damaging attacks made against it. However, in playing a very similar list myself, I found that the 1 shield to the sides was attacked by fighters and thus the 1 damage here and there just burned through my ships. I lost 10 ships in the tournment and of those 7 were lost to fighter attacks.

So, I would recommend that you drop 1 ship and throw in some X-Wings and Jan Ores as to just slow down the squadrons attacks.

This list screams "Rieekan" to me.

Do people imagine that you put the Nebs at speed four and charge? Its a slowroll, so no Mon Mothma, and no Rieekan.... Were not engine tech ramming here.

Just built my "learning to fly Nebs" fleet. I only have two, and put TRC on both. One is salvation and the other Yavaris. As i was looking it over it occurred to me how well Salvation and TRC's seem to work together.

Gallant Haven in front of them with the squads and 2 M30 torps loaded running right at them. Mon Mothma keeping them safe.

Forgot to mention, it's a 600 pt. build. I really my be through with 400

I agree Mon Mothma is your Admiral here, combined with brace you can mitigate a great deal of damage. I would be tempted to drop one Neb though for either YT-2400's or X-wings to keep fighters of your side arcs. Advancing line abreast would be a terrifying sight, all with Con. Fire commands....

So how did it go, Lyr?

Interested to hear how it went as well. I won Massing with a Mon Mothma 3 neb and 1 AFMK2 list so I have a lot of love and respect for the ship.

I always think it is funny how people shrug off a corvette dying but get really upset when a Neb goes down and start in on how it is a garbage ship.

I need to work on the formation again. Flying 6 of them is vastly different than when I did 5 Nebulon-B's

This was a real fun list to play! I modified it by dropping one of the Escorts to a Support Frigate and giving all of them Intel Officer, except Mon Mothma
