TIE Striker with EU

By Hrathen, in X-Wing

The baroness with VI, the title, and engine upgrades.

She would have the most repositioning power of any ship since pre-fixed whisper. She basically gets a boost before and and after she moves and a ps 10. This will probably be the first build I do with the striker.

Too bad she can't have autothrusters

So fast!

Her appeal is she's a cheap ps8, EU makes her less efficient than other choices.

She has a protoboost and a barrel roll leave her action for focus so archer can hit something, it'll be totally ninja.

Presuming that the TIE Striker has a 5-straight, then any of them could pull off:

1-pre maneuver boost

<base>

5-straight

<base>

1-boost

So that'd be 9 forward for positioning then, right? And as Hrathen noted, at PS10 with Duchess you could pull this off pretty much first in the round...

At 4 hull and 2 agility (perhaps 3 with the the unrevealed mod) that ship will melt without those green focus and/or evade tokens. PtL probably won't be much of an option either (and it's not compatible with the title anyway) as the 2-turns are white, though it's possible it'll have green 1 or 3-turns... but I doubt the empire will be getting another auto-PtL ship.

I think the striker will meet the standards of a lot of the lesser used scum ships like the khiraxz and starviper: maybe not the most optimized ship in the fleet, but dangerous if ignored for a priority target.

It may melt but it's cheap so that's fine.

Purely by the stats, it's an Attack Shuttle that traded its shields for hull. It looks like there's a TIE-only modification that may help with that, but for now it's not not going to be that hard to kill them.

all this just in time for Hotr falcon to not give a **** about positioning!

Except it comes with almost certainly cheap generics.

Against non turret ships, it doesn't matter what you agility is if you are out of arc. I'm am not saying that duchess will be the new soontir, but she will be fun to fly.
