Hi

Random question and list. I suspect that the Palpmobile and Decivader are the better options but is there any place left for the Firespray in Imperial lists. I threw this list together. How bad is it?

The idea is to pick a target for Carnor and OL to get close to then hopefully Krassis can take easy shots at it if they don't kill it. Should I drop OL to put more on the Firespray and swap Carnor for Soontir?

PILOTS

Krassis Trelix (43)
Firespray-31 (36), Heavy Laser Cannon (7)

“Omega Leader” (26)
TIE/fo Fighter (21), Comm Relay (3), Juke (2)

Carnor Jax (31)
TIE Interceptor (26), Push the Limit (3), Autothrusters (2)

Kath Scarlett with Tactician and Mangler Cannon were hella annoying to play against. That might be a fun place to start. She's like an imperial stressbot, almost sort of.

I've run Kath with Marksmanship and Gunner, stresses the hell out of Imp. aces.

You could always run a Vaderspray (Firevader?). With 2 arcs it's not as good as a Deci, but still better than a Lambda. 60% of the time it works everytime.

I don't think the Firespray has enough hull to have Vader as crew.

Given what I have I'm leaning towards the Kath 'stress-y' Scarlet idea but struggling to work out what to put with her. Not really enough points for 2 fully upgraded aces but only 1 aces means I'm adding upgrades for the sake of spending points. I suppose I could just have a single Ace with low PS blocker or maybe the list below. Kath is obviously the easier target and should she manage to stress anything then hopefully The inquisitor can get into a position to make the best of that the following turn with his Target Locked range 1 attack.

PILOTS

The Inquisitor (28)
TIE Advanced Prototype (25), TIE/v1 (1), Autothrusters (2)

“Omega Leader” (26)
TIE/fo Fighter (21), Comm Relay (3), Juke (2)

Kath Scarlet (46)
Firespray-31 (38), Marksmanship (3), Gunner (5)

With a single Ace I think the ships are too expensive

PILOTS

“Whisper” (41)
TIE Phantom (32), Tactician (2), Fire-Control System (2), Veteran Instincts (1), Advanced Cloaking Device (4)

Kath Scarlet (59)
Firespray-31 (38), Cluster Missiles (4), Heavy Laser Cannon (7), Seismic Charges (2), Marksmanship (3), Gunner (5), Guidance Chips (0)

Or you could try something like this:

Kath Scarlet — Firespray-31 38
Marksmanship 3
Gunner 5
Ship Total: 46

Valen Rudor — TIE Advanced Prototype 22
Push the Limit 3
Autothrusters 2
TIE/v1 1
Ship Total: 28

Academy Pilot — TIE Fighter 12
Ship Total: 12

Academy Pilot — TIE Fighter 12
Ship Total: 12

The you'll have two blockers which might help.

I think I prefer the Inquisitor to Valen even if that does mean I lose the TIE/v1 title.

STRESS-Y KATH
