Hey, why not. Seems interesting.

OGP with Palp.

Bounty Hunter with Slave 1 + LRS, Tail Gunner.

Vessery with x7, Juke, and TIE MK II. Alternatively, swap Tail Gunner and TIE MK II for Stealth Device on Vessery.

What squad would you make?

Kath Scarlett (42) - Firespray-31

Calculation (1), Recon Specialist (3)

Omicron Group Pilot (29) - Lambda-Class Shuttle

Emperor Palpatine (8)

Maarek Stele (29) - TIE Advanced

Adaptability (0), TIE/x1 (0), Twin Ion Engine Mk. II (1), Advanced Targeting Computer (5)

Like you said, why not and this should be entertaining to play

Palp Shuttle + Calculation/Rebel Captive Kath + Valen Rudor

Why does it feel Vessery is the only guy doing a good job in the list here" o_o

I'm actually kicking around the idea of

OCP + EP

2x Glaive + Predator+x7

This list hits hard and moves after swarms and before arc aces. I see this as a win win. (As my favorite way to blow up aces is to block them.)

or

OCP + EP + Engine

2x Delta + Ion Cannon + D

This is a control list. It can be configured a few different ways. Instead of EU on the OCP, you could put a Ion cannon and then give the 2 Deltas Mk. II. Or, give OCP Enhanced Scopes, Tractor Beam, and AP Lasers (or Ion Projector).

Fun idea.

I've got ... palpoutine... krassis with a mangler...and inquisitor.

Lambda-Class Shuttle: Omicron Group Pilot (21)

· Emperor Palpatine (8)

Firespray-31: · Kath Scarlet (38)

Adaptability (Increase) (0)

Tail Gunner (2)

TIE Avanced Prototype: · The Inquisitor (25)

Push The Limit (3)

Autothrusters (2)

TIE/v1 (1)

Keeping Inq in good position will allow you to use Palp on offense for the Kath ability trigger. Could actually deal with PTL Aces pretty well.

Bumping Kath to PS8 to choose order in Activation/Combat.
