What do you want to do with him. All I've seen so far is an amazing Moralo party bus (which i am all for btw). But i am curious what else my fellow squad leaders want to try out.
IG-88 Crew
Been struggling to find a ship or ships to pair with Dengar. It may be Fenn Rau or a couple generic Fangs, OR it's looking like Iggy C will be a good choice...

Depends on the dengar. With my super dengar (k4, unhinged, engine, title, ptl), to pair with igc youre trading target lock for an evade. Same action efficiency, just have to decide between offense or defense. Personally Id rather have the TL since the whole idea is to not get shot in the first place. Ill definitely be trying pairing him with fenn rau

Exactly what I was thinking, I already like flying Dengy with IG88C because then one target can potentially shoot back and the other is fairly hard to hit makes for a tough call your opponent has to make, especially if the Iggy is R3 with thruster. Have to update the Dengar build a bit though with EU and possibly PTL, but im excited to run this
Bossk with Veteran Instincts and Engine Upgrade, paired with IG-88C could be interesting.

That build is amazing, to be sure, but I've actually found this one works better for me personally:
Dengar
++Predator
++R5-P8
++Engine Upgrade
++Punishing One
55 points. The crew seat is still open here. Tried a few things and depending on the escorts, it usually ends up empty anyway. Like running it with Bossk, but a lightly build IG88C might be a good pairing.
You can now consistently activate juke on a TLT palob. Knocking down evades on both rolls after i steal your token? Thanks!
Takes 70 points with no upgrades on Iggy, but there's room for FCS, autothrusters, and a third ship. N'dru?
Edited by nikk whyteI have been looking at IG-B and a Bossk Party Bus:
IG-B (50)
Crack Shot
FCS
HLC
Glitterstim
Title
Autothrusters
Bossk (47)
Crack Shot
Mangler Cannon
4-LOM
IG-D Crew
Dengar
Glitterstim
There's not much apart from moralo if you're playing competitively or not epic
There's an underlying problem with the Iggy crew, and it's that the aggressor is basically a flat out better (cost effective statline, great upgrade combos, hilarious dial etc) ship than the other large bases
And the ig2000 title is flat out superior to the crew, as it's 0 and shares abilities instead of just granting it to the crew bearing ship
You're going to be hard-pressed to find someone more effective with a crew slot taken up than another aggressor
Moralo party bus is perhaps the only exception and even then he's a big punch with none of the defense or manueverability
Manaroo can also now pass evade tokens if you give her engines. Not that it's super helpful
I would possibly put IG-C with Boba Fett, who lives to boost everywhere and shot by everyone. Other possibilities for the laugh includes: IG-B on Zuckuss w/ Tractor Beam or IG-C on Manaroo w/ Engine upgrade and PTL to pass evades and focus.
"BroBots?" (100)
IG88-C (41) - Aggressor
Attanni Mindlink (1), Fire Control System (2), IG-2000 (0), Autothrusters (2)
Manaroo (33) - JumpMaster 5000
Attanni Mindlink (1), IG-88D (1), Engine Upgrade (4)
Concord Dawn Veteran (26) - Protectorate Starfighter
Attanni Mindlink (1), Concord Dawn Protector (1), Autothrusters (2)
Between IG title and Mindlink, you can just confuse your opponent for the win

Then don't take a large base...

I don't know if that's true.
The Palob build I listed is cheaper, has better pilot skill, and is a hard counter to basically every meta archetype that isn't a tie swarm.
Everyone keeps focusing on Moralo, but Firesprays also have a cannon slot.
I'm looking at a vi zuckuss with IG and eu. It could be intersting

It's true, but they also have a narrower arc, and no crew slots if taking IG crew. So I don't think it's a matter of people forgetting that there are less optimal choices, just that they are clearly worse.

Besides, every firespray is now married to tail gunner.
What if we have Brossk with a gunner, ig88, 4-lom, mangler, stun and crack with Botted up IG88B?
Or 4-LOM with Juke, FCS, Stim, Engine, IG88C, mist hunter with Botted IG88C

Gunner is a waste of points. You'll fire with the mangler and if you miss you can either fire with your primary with gunner OR the mangler with IG-B.

Gunner is there in case they miss AGAIN. IG88B doesn't specify you cannot attack again, just that you can only activate him once per turn. Gunner can, as it stands, be triggered after IggyB if that attack missed as well.
Shoot til you hit something! :-D
I like running the IG-88D. I like being able to stay out of fire arc's. The"D" with Kath is a lot of fun.
What about IGB with either 4LOM, or Zuckas? both have the PS to shoot before the IG and if you miss then you get a tractor shot to set up the IG.
Don't forget that you don't have to hit the same target the whole time.
The initial attack and the follow up cannon shot may be aimed at different targets.
Splitting your fire is often regarded as a bad move, but if you can strip tokens for 2 follow up attacks? Or force someone to burn palp against your insane volley?
