Inspired by biophysical' quad Intercepters I wanted to squeeze out one more. It's certainly not tournament level but this should be fun to play if nothing else to see the look on the other person 's face when they all hit the board.

Alpha Squadron Pilot w/Autothrusters x5

It could be fun :

I am curious about the results if you can post some

The problèm is That VS ordonance ships you Will suffer a lot, VS stress Y Wing TLT you Will loose a lot of Hull...

And what I think is : it Will be difficult to flight in formation...

There's no real reason to run so many alphas (other than for fun). Competitively speaking, they are most effective as blockers, but you don't need that many. Typically one is enough (maybe 2 at most).

I have seen someone run Howlrunner in place of an alpha to give them a little more punch. Howlie also acts as 'biggs' and with crack shot, can usually deal at least a point of damage before dying. Unfortunately, with the alphas at PS 1, there is a very real chance that Howlie can die before any interceptor benefits from her re-rolls, so ultimately, I don't think its amazing or anything.

Another option is Fleet Officer (maybe systems officer too?). You can run this either on a Lambda (best with advanced sensors) or a TIE shuttle. Interestingly enough, a fleet officer TIE shuttle is 19 points, so it can replace one alpha very easily (you can even throw howlrunner into the mix and just run 3 alphas with them).

List 1

Howlrunner w/ crack shot = 19

Scimitar w/ shuttle title, fleet officer + intel agent = 20

3 alphas w/ autothrusters = 20 x 3

99

List 2

Howlrunner w/ crack shot = 19

Omicron Pilot w/ advanced sensors, fleet officer = 27

3 alphas = 18 x 3

100

You could also drop crack shot to grab an intel agent on the Lambda.

Or you could just use a pair of alphas as blockers for something more sinister:

List 3

2 alphas w/ thrusters = 20 x 2

4 black squad pilots w/ crack shot = 15 x 4

100

Or if you want to keep the all interceptor theme and stick with Bio's predator Royals:

List 4

2 alphas w/ thrusters = 20 x 2

2 Royals w/ predator, title, hull + thrusters = 30 x 2

Obviously, you could replace predator with Push the Limit for a more traditional interceptor. I have actually run this list before, and its not bad (with PTL, not pred).
