I haven't tried the Jumpmaster yet, so I want to get it in a list and I figured I'd pair Dengar with Kath, since I haven't flown the scum version of her much either.

Kath Scarlet (Scum) — Firespray-31 38
Expose 4
K4 Security Droid 3
Glitterstim 2
Engine Upgrade 4
Ship Total: 51

Dengar — JumpMaster 5000 33
Crack Shot 1
"Gonk" 2
Inertial Dampeners 1
Punishing One 12
Ship Total: 49

I realize expose is way to spendy, but I thought get a lock with K4, glitterstim, in the rear arc that's a 5-6 die attack with TL focus! Sounds too funny not to try. Though that shot would be very hard to set up.

So if your only limitations were must include Kath, Dengar, and Punishing One title, how would you build this duo?

Another crazy one:

Kath Scarlet (Scum) — Firespray-31 38
Daredevil 3
K4 Security Droid 3
Inertial Dampeners 1
Engine Upgrade 4
Ship Total: 49

Dengar — JumpMaster 5000 33
Crack Shot 1
"Gonk" 2
Glitterstim 2
Punishing One 12
Ship Total: 50

Daredevil on Kath sounds like a drity way to keep people in rear arc, or avoid arcs.

Last iteration before I leave it to you guys:

Kath Scarlet (Scum) — Firespray-31 38

Daredevil 3
K4 Security Droid 3
Inertial Dampeners 1
Engine Upgrade 4
Ship Total: 49

Dengar — JumpMaster 5000 33
Crack Shot 1
K4 Security Droid 3
Unhinged Astromech 1
Inertial Dampeners 1
Punishing One 12
Ship Total: 51

Unhinged astro + K4 Droid sounds like a cool combo.

Expose is just bad. Mathematically a Focus action is better for 3+ dice attacks IIRC.

If you're going to put a 1 point EPT on Dengar, VI is the way to go.

Daredevil on Kath I hadn't thought of, but it's an interesting thought. The Firespray doesn't have brilliant greens, but you're wanting to use them every turn with K4 anyway, and Kath really likes to be able to swing her rear arc to bear effectively.

I've tried Expert Handling on Firesprays before and found it broadly functional, so I can see Daredevil occupying the same role.

Yeah I know expose is bad. I just through it might be fun to have Kath expose her butt to someone up close. Glitterstim + the lock from the K4 would make for a pretty devastating shot. but it's just a one time thing so that's about 6 points going into one attack lol.

Dengar loves Unhinged+K4. His "Super Dengar" build is popular for a reason. But I'm afraid both ships together are very costly.

You could try something like this:

Dengar (33):

• Predator (3)
• Recon Specialist (3)
• R5-P8 (3)
• Punishing One (12)

Total: 54 pts

Kath Scarlet (38):

• Veteran Instincts (1)
• Engine Upgrade (4)
• Tactician (2)

Total: 45 pts

Squad Total: 99 pts

Both PS9 with a small bid for initiative.

Dengar has solid red dice mods, even for his second attack, and painbot makes him even less of a desirable target.

Kath has no mods, which is bad (she loves Dengar as crew, btw). But she has dat range bubble, where she either gets 4-dice (5 from behind) or stresses someone.

Overall pretty solid and nice to fly.

Don't tell Manaroo.

Here's my list--So far it's worked with some success!

Kath Scarlet (38)

Veteran Instincts (1) Heavy Laser Cannon (7) 4-LOM (1) Internal Dampeners (1)

Dengar (33)

Punishing One (12) Predator (3) Recon Specialist (3) Unhinged Astromech (1)
