Is the Tie Advanced Prototype the Wave 8 Sleeper Hit?

Wait till vets arrives they'll pop up with vessery so often you'll be sick of seeing them

I'm not even waiting. This is pretty much my plan for tomorrow. Three PS2 TAPs with Proton Rockets, Chips, and Title, alongside Vessery with VI, Mk2 Engines, and Tractor Beam (VI may become Predator). Should be good for a giggle, at least.

Consider ruthlessness once we get titles vessery with an ion cannon could do six damage two of which can't be blocked five if you go tractor.

Teamed up with the action efficient TAP you've got high damage with solid defence.

That's pretty much the plan once the titles land. I'm considering this a sort of beta test. I'm still wondering whether tractor or ion will be the better option, but we'll see with some testing.

Depends on what your facing against aces a successful tractor will open fel up for two attack ships, even if you fail you've a good chance of forcing him to use his tokens.

Against b's and y's ion let's you pile on damage.

I'm toying with (but haven't flown yet), sort of a Rage-filled Inquistor swarm...

The former is what I'm leaning toward for that exact reason. I could keep two of the prockets and use ion to make sure I get my little buddies into R1 for the shot. TB isn't as good at that, but it still massively boosts the TAPs chances of pushing damage through.
