The basic idea is to be 1st player, hopefully wrecking face with the Demolisher. Use the TIE fighters to tie up squadron lists.

Any suggestions for improvement? I could drop the Intel off Demo or downgrade the ACM to APT.

I have had the thought of dropping a TIE for Screed and 2 more bid points.

I like the Screed idea. It gives you just as many TIEs as the ISD can activate with a single order.

OK, played this with Screed. I think I can drop the Intel on Demo. What to do with the 7 points? Instigator title on a Raider?

That or bump a TIE up to Howlrunner. Either/or, imo.

I think Ozzel is a far superior admiral than Screed. He gives you so much versatility and your opponents typically have a hard time guessing where you will go. Ordnance Experts rarely steer you wrong and you can use them twice an activation.

An 8 pts bid is not sufficient if you want to rely on being 1st player.

I have played with a similar list.

ISD 1 (Ozzel)

Fully tricked out demolished ( Intel officer, ACM, OE,engine tecs)

2 bare bones raiders

1 raider instigator

4 ties

390 points, plays well in metas with low initiative bids.

Things I learnt, Intel officer is a brutal upgrade on demolisher, instigator and four ties is a very cost effective way of countering bombers.

An 8 pts bid is not sufficient if you want to rely on being 1st player.

My newest iteration has Screed and a 10 point bid. Only 4 TIEs. People in my area don't seem to do huge bids.

I like Screed to guarantee the ACMs, there have been too many times that I roll 4 hits and no crits and then reroll into 4 hits no crits. I have been considering dropping the Intel and adding a Instigator to a Raider. Could give me a 13 PT bid.
