Hey guys,

I just threw this together.

Let me know what you think.

Ventress (49 points)

- PTL

- Ketsu Onyo

- BMST

- Shadow Caster Title

- EU

Bossk (51 points)

- PTL

- Mangler Cannon

- Dengar

- Zuckuss

- BMST

- EU

100 Points

My thoughts for this build:

Using Dengar, Bossk can re-roll dice while stressed. I would use Zuckuss as much as possible.

Ventress would be helping to make the opponents ships as vulnerable as possible with Stress and Tractor Beams.

Again, I just threw this together so forgive my blatant oversight of better combos!

Thanks guys!

You might use PtL on Bossk once. VI, Crack Shot, and Fearlessness are all far better options. For the same reason (Zuckuss), Engine Upgrade is likely going to be a very expensive one-time-use card.

Some suggestions.

PtL on the Bossk isn't going to trigger often, due to all the stress Zuckuss will be giving you. I recommend replacing it with Predator, strictly due to my next suggestion.

You may want to consider putting Latts Razzi on either the 'Caster, OR, if you plan on flying these ships close to each other, the YV-666. If you put it on the YV-666, which I do not think is a bad idea, you'll want to move Dengar to Ventress, which is a solid pairing.

Now, with Latts, BMST is something you'll only want to use if it's to kill a ship, or against a ship that is otherwise difficult to hit. Beyond that, you'll want stress to stay on your enemy so Latts eat it up.

EU on Bossk is also a no-go, due to all the stress you're likely to end up with. Those four points can go pretty much anywhere, maybe 4-Lom for the YV and Glitterstim for the Shadowcast (in case you bump), but you could use it however you see fit.


TL;DR -- PtL and EU are not a good idea on any ship using Zuckuss.

Ahhhh, very good points about Adding actions that Zuckuss will make unusable.

So here is what I ended up putting together:

Ventress (53 points)

- PTL

- Dengar

- BMST

- Glitterstim

- Shadow Caster Title

- EU

Boss (47 points)

- Predator

- Mangler Cannon

- Latts Razzi

- Zuckuss

- 4-LOM

- BMST

100 Points

Excellent suggestion guys, Thanks!

I think that you want to avoid having the YV-666 be more expensive than the Lancer. In most games it is probably going to be the first ship you lose.

Actually a local player pretty much only has a YV-666 and JumpMaster5000 in his collection at this point because Bossk/Tel is all he plays, but he's quite good with it and he will tell you the first secret to beating the list is leaving the YV for last. It'll be loaded up with stress, can't shoot 360, and the only way for it to turn around is hard 3's.

Really, PTL Ventress with EU seems like she'd be able to take you on a merry chase keeping you in her mobile arc once she started taking some damage while dragging you through the YV's huge arc.

It does make sense though that the YV is easier to deal with while it is alone than Ventress would be.
