For casual flying tonight:

What do you guys think?

Balls of Stele (100)

Maarek Stele (32) -

TIE Advanced Calculation (1),

Proton Rockets (3),

TIE/x1 (0),

Advanced Targeting Computer (5)

"Howlrunner" (20) - TIE Fighter

Swarm Tactics (2)

Mauler Mithel (18) - TIE Fighter

Crack Shot (1)

Obsidian Squadron Pilot (13) - TIE Fighter

"Scourge" (17) - TIE Fighter

Looks like a fun list to fly. I have a hard time justifying flying any TIE Advanced without using Vader but that's me and I often get stuck in ruts when compiling lists.

That's exactly the way I run Maarek. He's a beast when you're flipping crits. A guaranteed Crit from the ATC, and Calculation?? Yes please!

Guys,

Stele was petty much a monster. First game was against an Imperial Boba and 2 TIE advanced prototypes. Boba got burned down in 1 round of focus fire with 2 nasty crits from the Man him self. The Prototypes were a lot harder to take out, but Stele dealt a Direct hit to the last remaining TAP.

Second match was against a strange triple scout list, but this one was not the ordinance one. It had feed back arrays, and ion projectors and the weird sniper agromech.

My opponent managed to create an awful traffic jam, but I still was able to focus down one of the Scouts, he strangely decided to feedback array Scourge, killing him but also killing one of his own scouts.

Then it was a brutal grind of bumps, ion tokens, and a couple of unfortunate failed K turns on my part. I was really not getting a lot of actions, but the target lock I got on one of his ships in the beginning was always paying off with Stele and the ATC. Eventually he killed Stele and Howlrunner leaving me with two damaged TIES: The Obsidian Squadron, and Mauler Mithel.

After some frantic flying away, and turning back in again, The Obsidian squadron pilot managed to get blown up by the combined fire of teh two scouts. But thanks to his PS 3 (take that stupid academy TIE!) he was able to simultaneous fire... got 3 hits, Scout rolled blanks. Down to 1 scout and 1 Mauler Mithel. The two jousted, as he was trying to bump, but MM was able to keep his distance (1) rolled 4 dice and that was all she wrote. I never got to use the P rockets on Stele (almost never got an action from all the bumps), and didn't need to use crack shot.

I'm thinking Scourge wasn't all that. Wampa would be a better TIE in his place I think.

I've never run 5 ships before, I think Running 6 or 7 or even 8 would have made my brain explode.

Balls of Stele 2, Everyone else 0.

. I think I was a bit lucky with the green dice,

The name says it all.
