Total: 33 pts

-----------------------------------------

I'm very tempted to get a third JM5K and it would be nice to have a different option, other than Torpboats. So, came up with this, will try to test this weekend, but some scrutiny would be nice.

Low PS favors Opportunist, K4+Unhinged is obvious action-economy and dial freedom to shed off Opportunist stress.

Simple, probably effective, theoretical 3-of.

Could this work as a 3-of? Or at all?

Should it be paired with 2 U-Boats? Palob? Shred it away.

I think I would pair it with Palob, or perhaps some feedback array Zs. If you're feeling really cheeky you could do an Asymmetrical build of scouts:

The Blocker:

Intel agent, Intimidation, Anti Pursuit Lasers (or ion projector), Feedback Array (32 points)

The Heavy Hitter: deadeye, R4aggromech, proton torps, extra munitions, chips (34 points)

The Opportunist: Opportunist, K4, Unhinged (33 points)

Reminds me of Larry, Curly, and Moe :)

I LOL'd hard. Bumpmaster, Wolf and Sneaky Bastard...now, that's badass.

That's not a bad idea, mind you. Even leaves a point to spare on the Heavy Hitter (AHEM...Wolf), between 4-LOM, Zuckuss or Boba Fett.

I like this. A lot.
