Playing in my first store tourney this weekend, looking for some feedback on this list. Any C&C is appreciated.
IG88-B (47)
Aggressor (36), Veteran Instincts (1), Fire-Control System (2), “Mangler” Cannon (4), Feedback Array (2), Autothrusters (2)
Dengar (53)
JumpMaster 5000 (33), Predator (3), 4-LOM (1), Punishing One (12), Engine Upgrade (4)
If you are adding EU onto Dengar you might want PTL instead of predator.
IMO I like Glitterstim over feedback array on the IG. If you aren't sold on VI on the IG crack shot is also something to look at.
Dengar (33):
Total: 52 pts
IG88-C (36):
Total: 47 pts
This version of IG keeps it highly survivable and self-dependent. Although B packs the best overall ability, Dengar appreciates a lasting wingman and C works like Guri on steroids here, at the cost of Engine Upgrade on Dengar. As a bonus, you get a 1-pt bid for initiative.
Edited by K GenesisWhy exactly PTL? Predator gives me actionless attack modification on every attack, including the one they trigger by firing at him in arc. Target lock I'd only really have one one attack and I'd end up with a stress.
I do like the looks of the IG-88C, definitely looking for a survivable wingman for Dengar.
If you're using EU, PtL is essential for arc-dodging, so that you can boost and roll. With K4, you get the lock and modify dice. It also gives you the option to focus and TL, for all-out offensive turns. Unhinged makes refreshing stress much easier, to the point where it's not an issue, and comboes nicely with K4. Essentially, it's 3 actions per turn, turning Dengar into the ace monster Scum needed for so long.
If you're not using EU (like my suggestion goes), then you could go with Predator, ditch K4 for Recon Specialist and have the extra focus for defense or the second shot (along with Predator's re-roll). But Dengar will be considerably less mobile. If you're comfortable with that, by all means, take that route.

With EU on Dengar and a B-roll action you should be able to get into some very nice range one shots for him, or if you have to you can arc doge with those 2 actions
Here's a revised version, swapping B for C with a 1-point initiative bid.
99 points
