They sort of melt when faced with U-boats, though, so...YMMV.

Not so sure about that. Once the torps are gone, those 2 dice turrets are not getting through. I think the worst match up for triple defenders is arc dodgers.

That's been my experience proxying them. You lose some of the squad to torps (but it takes some work from those torps), but any remaining TIE/x7s cheerfully laugh off the primary guns of the scouts.

This has not been my experience. X7 Defenders can take a 4-hit torpedo shot with little to no damage, and once the torpedoes are gone, the scouts are using a 2-dice turret to punch through 3 agility with F+E. On the contrary, I find them to be extremely strong against U-boats, as long as you don't joust or leave one in a position to take multiple torpedoes in one turn.

My playtesting friend for my triple Defender list calls it "Defender Hell."

Triple Ds guys, triple Ds

As in, the only thing better than double Ds is triple Ds. I worry about you all sometimes.

I was gonna suggest "Big Ol' TIE-Ds"... But that's just me

Palp Aces with an x7 Vessery is stupid good. It's going to place well.

It really seems so simple though.

"TRI Defenders"

I mean, a cutesy name ala Brobots would be great, but this one is ripe for the punning!

Triple Defenders = Trifenders

DefCon 3.

Defenders of the Earth, surely.

Squadron Twenty-One

...as in 3x7...

if they never die, they're squadron Forever 21

Meh, my Homing Missile spamming Gamma Vets do not care about your x7 shenanigans...

Pfft 3 defenders is trip trips.

I stated the same thing in another thread. Of course you call them Triple Ds!

Triple ion Tie/D is Def Con 3

Forget about U-boats, man. Welcome to Defender Hell.

X7 Defenders will be frustrating to play against because they'll be so damned tough. I think the strongest triple/x7 list will be 3xGlaive with Crack Shot. Good PS, nasty-tough, and just enough offense to stay ahead in the damage race until time is called.

Or the defensive versión, 3 deltas with x7 + stealth device.

Its like a wall, with focus & evade every turn

So a Interceptor on crack then.

I'll use the ships a little more but I'm not changing up my arc dodgers for a bomber that may get one more shot off.

I do think I may put the punisher in for a couple of games... I think anyone playing some high level pilots will still wreck the bombers
