Tested out a couple of lists and found that Palp's Double Ds have found some success in my area if flown right and good dice rolls.

What would you choose of the two:

Omicron | Palp

Countess | X7+Adaptability

Vessery | Ion Cannon+TIE/D+VI

or

Omicron | Palp

Countess | X7+Juke (or VI+TIE MK II)

Vessery | Tractor+TIE/D+VI

Hmm. I like the D title, but in a Palp Aces style build, I think you should make them both x7. It just works better IMHO.

Omicron | Palp

Countess | X7+PTL+TIE Mk II

Vessery | X7+Juke

Vessery's ability allows him to get fairly accurate shots, and Juke makes them count even more. Ryad is built to her best potential, and can get maximum effectiveness from her defender. Try two x7s, and see if you can feel a difference when flying.

I personally like the D as with the times I tested the list, the 2nd shot helps significantly. I feel like the TIE/D and his Target Lock ability is a perfect match.

However, it is worth testing.

X7 is tankier that's for sure but if you can pile on damage quick enough which vessery can do you can kill an ace before survivability factors in.

Main issue is u boats will kick your butt when your relying on green dice alone.

Great thing about TB is it forces people to burn tokens to avoid the agility reduction leaving them open for following attacks, so either way your opening them up for pain.

I think the Colonel's pilot ability paired with the TIE/D Title is one of the best in the game from an offensive standpoint. I just can't see myself giving Vessery the other title, especially in a three-ship meta when you're going to have target locks on at least 2/3rds of your opponent's squadron.

Hmm, well I'd try to find something to get points back. PTL+x7+Twin Ion on Ryad is just watched too **** good to pass on.

Maybe:

Lambda-Class Shuttle: Omicron Group Pilot (21)

· Emperor Palpatine (8)

TIE Defender: · Colonel Vessery (35)

Tractor Beam (1)

TIE/D (0)

TIE Defender: · Countess Ryad (34)

Push The Limit (3)

TIE/x7 (-2)

Not to question, or doubt Ryad with PTL, but what purpose? I feel like with a lack of boost, PTL isn't as effective for her.

I think the discussion is who should be the stronger ace in this squad: Vessery or Ryad?

Mostly for painting targets for Vessery yet still getting a barrel roll or focus. With green Ks available, she can move to crazy places and not worry about stress. It's a lot better with Twin Ion, because almost the entire dial is green at that point, but can work without it. I think Vessery is your damage dealer, but Ryad is your slippery one. If you can distract with Ryad, I would do that as much as possible, and try to take dudes out with Vessery while they are trying to get her.

second list, with Juke on Ryad

2 x7 Glaives with juke and hull upgrade and palp shuttle with baffles

I used the following list and went 3-1 in a small store tournament yesterday, taking 3rd place:

Omicron+Palp

Ryad+Adaptability+X7

Vessery+VI+Ion Cannon+TIE/D

I am ready to test out this week

Omicron+Palp
Ryad+Juke+x7
Vessery+VI+Tractor+TIE/D
