Help! Game coming up

By Darthfish, in Star Wars: Armada

I love this game, but I seldom get to play it. i have been collecting from the beginning but have probably only gotten in 8 games. This weekend I plan to get in a couple more, so I am seeking the collective wisdom of the community for my upcoming match, as they guy I am playing against gets to play far more regularly than I do.

What I would like is a list that lets me use the power of the interdictor to slow them down so I can kill them, possibly combined with konstatine or tractor beams. so, shoot me your list ideas focused around this concept. I am wondering if VSDs are more viable now that interdictors are around? i have an extensive collection, with at least 2 of everything, 3 of most of the smaller ships, 2 ISDs, 2 interdictors, 2 Glads, 2 fighter packs, 2 rouges, etc. Same on rebel side.

I like fighters and bombers, but I have not really been able to use them effectively, which is more my inexperience with the game I think than anything else.

Thanks in advance.

I have seen a fair number of people running Interdicter and double VSD lists for the Konstantine/Tractor beam shenanigans, but I think for you not being to fly very often it might be easier to use the Interdoctor set up. I would suggest the following as it is very straight forward list that forces a lot of bad decisions because of how difficult it is to score points against.:
