Countering Ackbar & conga line

By Jonny211, in Star Wars: Armada

Pfft. Double Arcing is for Chumps....

The Slash is were the Ackbucks are....

Actually there's defensive bonuses to ackbar. You only show one side to an opponent so you can easily shunt shields to where you expect to be hit.

Also it's easier to one shot small ships.

I think I've come up with a fleet:-

Admiral Screed

Imperial Class-II

Gunnery team

Phylon Tractor Beam

ECM to protect the brace

Relentless

Gladiator 1

Demolisher

APT's

Engine Techs

Raider 1

Instigator

Ordnance Experts

6xTie fighter

Boba Fett

Bossk Hounds Tooth

Thinking again I might drop Instigator for Leading Shots on the Imperial II. Or maybe Dengar instead of Bossk?

Hopefully that'll be enough anti squadron to chew through any A/X wings then the Rogues can help with the ships, plus less ££££ spent on plastic as it's all about the taking part right?

Cheers.

I would prefer Intel Agent to Tractor Beams, if you can spare the point.

Your group of squadrons works ok. There are "better" more powerful AA options, but your concerns about money, it works fine.

That list should work. Deploy the raider and all the tie fighters first, then evaluate where you stand.

Worst case the tie fighters have to spend the first turn hopping over to your carrier.

Fair point, I forgot about the intel officer.

What would be the better AA squadrons for a single pack of Imp Squadrons... 2xTie Interceptors, 2xTie Advanced, Dengar and Flight Controllers? Then have Boba and bombers?

"Ackbucks" is now in my Lexicon. Thank you!

Yes, do Dengar instead of Bossk. You gain, Counter and Intel, both are quite useful. Another option is going down to a Jumpmaster.

I'd also try and work in Intel Officer, dumping tractor beams for instance.
