Hi all,

Hoping to get some sound input and wisdom from experienced pilots and squad builders... Playing around with some lists in preparation for a SC this sunday, here are my final two:

LIST 1

- Scout / U Boat

Deadeye

Proton Torp

Extra Mun

Guid. Chips

Boba Fett

R4 Ag

35 points

- YV 666 Slaver

Tactician

Zuckuss

32 points

- YV 666 Slaver

Tactician

4 LOM

Intelligence agent

33 points

= Double stress attack from YVs with Zuckuss and 4LOM removing as much defense as possible, and the uboat packing the typical uboat punch

---

LIST 2

- Scout / U Boat

Deadeye

Prot Torp

Extra M

Guid Chips

R4

34 points

- Bossk

Calculation

Dengar

Tactician

Zuckuss

42 points

- Synd Thug

ICT

Title

Unhinged

24 points

= standard uboat, bossk with enough crew to strip anything away (i want to nickname him "The Stripper"), and a good ol' ICT ywing just to cause havok.

The first list has had a fairly good winning streak, and the second is yet to be tested, but looks good on paper IMO. But please feel free to tear them apart...

First list is probably better.

Bossk should trade Zuckuss for 4-LOM. Less punishing, more harmful against aces.

Personal preference, Outlaw Tech over Tactician. Gives you more dial freedom(i.e. the full-stop choice) without loss of power. Test both, see what works for you.

I like your first list more.

Some advice though:

• Zuckuss and 4LOM crews should really be on the same Slaver. Denying that defensive Focus is brutal when you can force natural evade rerolls.
• K4 Security droid is really good on Zuckuss Slavers. Not only will you be slow-rolling with greens a lot, but it makes bumping advantageous when you're multi-stressed.
• Tactician has limited usefulness without Gunner or high PS. Most ships that are worth tapping with stress can boost/BR out of that band. It has its uses, especially when you have it on both Slavers like you do; but I think going with damage via Zuckuss, 4LOM, K4/Dengar is better against Aces.

You would have to drop Boba Fett unfortunately, but it comes out to this:

Contracted Scout [GC, Proton Torpedoes, R4, EM, Deadeye] - 35 pts

Slaver [Zuckuss, 4LOM, K4 Security] - 34 pts

Slaver [Dengar] - 32 pts

Knew i'd get some sound advice on here. Thanks guys.

Zerotc, think you're right, i'll switch the crews around.

I had one final thought...is it better to keep the extra munitions on the uboat or switch the two points for a bossk crew on slaver no.2? I feel bossk will be a more durable use of 2 points than simply firing a second row of torps...

Definitely keep the extra munitions.

You've already invested into R4, Deadeye, and Proton Torpedoes . Those two more points you spend are incredible value.
