Dodonnas MC30s & company

By Jagged, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Hello,

What do you think about this list? The idea is to strike fast with the mc30s, hoping them to survive, and try to hold ground with yavaris... CR90 will try to snipe a bit hidding with obstructions.

many thanks for all your opinions ;)

Ships look fine.

I just worry about being able to activate all the squadrons with only Yavaris.

3 B-Wings are great and the Yavaris double tap can make them deadly.

Farlander isn't needed and Luke might be better off in an anti-fighter role so Wedge maybe.

I think 2 rogues could be good so what about a YT2400 and either Han or Dash replacing your 2 character squadrons.

Farlander and Luke are there to get the most of Dodonna ability, but I will think on what you say (Han/YTs/wedge), because its true that with only 3 squadrons activations i get short...

By the way, what about the same list with Mon Modma? Just changing squadrons for 3 bwings and 3 awings.

Dodonna's Text: When a friendly ship is attacking, before the defender is dealt a faceup damage card, look at the top 4 cards of the damage deck, place 1 on top of the deck, and discard the others.

So he won't give the bonuses to Luke or Farlander's attacks. Not that they are poor without it but some ranging anti-fighter chaps may keep the B-Wings unmolested while they do their thing.

Dodonna's Text:
"Before an enemy ship is dealt a faceup damage card, look at the top 4 cards of the damage deck, place 1 on top of the deck and discard the others."
There is no "Friendly Ship is Attacking".
Here's the Card itself:

Dodonna works on any and all faceup damage cards. Including Asteroid Impacts!

Blimey missed that. I was using this site as a reference which has dodgy text I see and also charges 25 points for him...

Bother. Last month I had 3 B-wings double-tap an ISD who overran them doing 12 damage in total.... and I never enforced the Dodonna rule except when Yavaris' 3 red dice fired out the front.

I have no idea why my post disappeared - but I've reinstated it.

Its very interesting... I've seen that card in pictures online - so I went to my folder, and held the actual card I own in my hand...

... and that one, at least for me, represents the Card Text as on the Wiki - There is no "Friendly ship is attacking" Clause.

I wonder if the other one is a real card, perhaps even a preview card?

It isn't in the FAQ so it was probably a press release picture to preview the forthcoming starter set game several years ago.
