I like the idea of using the gr75s as cheap dedicated carriers. it keeps them out of the battle, but directly contributing.

Dodonna lets me pick the crits ill be dolling out with my plethora of squadrons, and i get to fly some fast fighter bombers to get in and hit and then play with the enemy fighters, and some slow big bombers to protect the transports all with free rerolls. The MC30 in this list is a big threat to all other ships, but it will play more defensively trying to keep it alive against the bigger ships.

a variation of this list, i am also looking to try out this one

Transports test fleet 2

Faction: Rebel Alliance
Points: 398/400

Commander: General Cracken

Assault Objective: Precision Strike
Defense Objective: Contested Outpost
Navigation Objective: Dangerous Territory

[ flagship ] CR90 Corvette A (44 points)

- Turbolaser Reroute Circuits ( 7 points)

6 X-Wing Squadrons ( 78 points)
2 HWK-290s ( 24 points)
2 B-Wing Squadrons ( 28 points)

this one has no heavy hitters, instead relying on squadrons to do the big damage (the cr90s can get hits here and there, but at speed 3 or faster these wont get more than one or 2 hits off before they fly off to go tag another ship.

redundant shields on the cr90's to help keep them on the board. losing any one ship in this list wont hurt too bad, but losing 2+ will really shut down the play

Let me know what you think. Ill probably get a chance to try these via proxy this weekend.

I like the lists, but I think they create an interesting point of discussion. Being, that you are now spending as many point on upgrades as the ships themselves.

So would you be better off taking a third GR75 by dropping/rearranging some upgrades and such for a third GR75

i threw this together if this gives you any ideas

Wave 3 Cracken Fleet

1 Jan Ors ( 19 points)
3 X-Wing Squadrons ( 39 points)
2 Y-Wing Squadrons ( 20 points)

im not sure how i feel about jamming field yet, It looks like it could hurt me just as much as it hurts my opponent, and im not sure i can fly the ship flexibly enough to get it to be reliable.

I've been seeing alot of light trc90 builds...
