I personally think the Ndru alpha strike just got MUCH nastier, as range 1 Cluster Missiles get to do a potential 10 damage thanks to fearlessness, and after, BMST makes him a constant threat to some lists even if he can't get off that massive cluster missile attack. Still fragile, but improved.

Also, Tail Gunner could be a great addition for the firespray, particularly Kath, though at the cost of action economy.

Ndru probably needs Glitterstim to get those 10 damage.

I agree with Blair on that - if your EPT is being used for Fearlessness, you're going to need Glitterstim to get those Cluster Missiles off for max damage (plus GC of course). That being said, I hadn't considered Fearlessness coupled with Clusters. That's going to be NASTY! Talk about enemy #1.

Yeah, you're right about that. Glitterstim it is.

I was thinking a list with Manaroo, Fenn Rau with APT, and Ndru with cluster missiles, though with glitterstim, Manaroo doesn't seem to do much for Ndru.

Although the idea is certainly tempting, I personally have trouble getting the CM attack off without dying first, if I do not have VI equipped on N'dru. It doesn't matter how much potential damage you can do, if you are never able to get it off BMST is a great idea if you have Manaroo as a support for those focus tokens on your CM attack. Without the support of Manaroo (I prefer recspec for double focus) or Glitterstim, the CM attack doesn't achieve enough punch IMHO.

I do think that Kath benefits from Tailgunner a lot. I also think that Talonbane will be slightly better with Vectored Thrusters (those 2 saved points go a long way).

But the biggest winner in my opinion are TLT carriers (especially Palob) with Vectored Thrusters. But I'm sure a lot of people will disagree with me on that

Amazing wave in any case

Yeah, Manaroo had RecSpec, Countermeasures, Unhinged, PTL, and Burnout Slam, so she had some extra options to stay alive longer if she got hunted.

Biggs

Biggs got new friends

Oh also Ndru has to be R1-2 away from friends, AND range1 to his target to use Fearlessness. Yes, thats a lot of damage, but you're gonna have a hard time getting it on anything even slightly dodgey.

Pain in the ass match vs say Deci Ace, Fat Han, or IGs.

(OH WAIT, JUST LIKE EVERYTHING. )

Maybe with some stress and control? And a little anti ace? (Cuz heaven knows theres zero anti large manevuerable ship tech)

Vector Thruster TLT Kavil.

Vector Thruster TLT Salm.

Can't wait.

Vessery. Vessery and /SF with fcs are best friends. Vessery plays poker with the first order special forces on the weekends.

Every Firespray with tailgunner, especially Kath

Vectored thruster xwing/kizraxasdf followed by tail gunner firesprays

Talonbane becomes more than just an overpriced biggs

Time will tell, but I'm super excited to start trying out Kath with Tail Gunner.
