I'm playing in a small tournament tomorrow and I am running: Sienar Test Pilot w/Proton Rockets, Guidance Chips, and V1 title X 5. I am also most likely using the 3 debris fields from the Decimator. Which Damage Deck is best with this set up? I'm not really sure of the difference, but I know each is better for different types of lists. What say you?
Which Damage Deck is best for TAPs?
Old probably, but you may get the Crit that knocks out your Pockets but if you're taking Critz on a TAP you get worse problems
I think the general rule of thumb is that the more upgrades and pilot abilities you have, the better the new deck is for you. I'd suggest the old deck for your list with R5Don4.
Cool thanks for the info.
pretty much of a muchness really. If a TAP takes a crit it's probably dead anyway.

Exactly, in fact I would want the munitions one instead of direct hit, or blinded pilot.
I too think the old damage deck is probably best in this instance.
Good luck with the list too. It looks fun and I would like to give it a shot, but I won't be buying more than a second TAP, I imagine.

Thanks. I did ok in the tournament. I went 2-2 and finished 7th out of 16. (Top 50%!) If not for some unusually cold green dice in one game, I may have been 3-1. Overall a fun time.
Is seems that being able to choose a fixed element of the game like a damage deck is a bit over the top munchkin.

It is for backwards compatibility purposes and it makes a tiny (but potentially huge) difference.
