Vader + Juke

By polmoneys, in X-Wing Squad Lists

I'm having fun with:

Maarek Stele (TIE Defender) (35)

Juke (2)

TIE/x7 (-2)

Darth Vader (29)

Juke (2)

Accuracy Corrector (0)

TIE/x1 (0)

Carnor Jax (26)

Push the Limit (3)

Autothrusters (2)

Hull Upgrade (3)

Royal Guard TIE (0)

Wondering if there is something similar worth trying, love Carnor but with stress arcs everywhere it can't contribute as much as it used to.

What are your thoughts about this iteration of 3 aces + juke ?

Maarek Stele (TIE Defender) (35)

Juke (2)

Twin Ion Engine Mk. II (1)

TIE/x7 (-2)

Darth Vader (29)

Juke (2)

Cluster Missiles (4)

Accuracy Corrector (0)

Guidance Chips (0)

TIE/x1 (0)

"Omega Leader" (21)

Juke (2)

Comm Relay (3)

Hull Upgrade (3)

Any other Vader + Juke squad not involving Palpie you find interesting?

I would drop the accuracy correctors for ATC. That way you can use Juke to force the crit through. Drop the Cluster missiles to Proton Rockets, or drop them entirely for an initiative bid.

Slightly random thought but what about Sensor Jammer on Juking Vader? Punish their Focus tokens on both attacks and defense. Play with Carnor for even greater frustration. :D

I also think Vader is better with ATC than acc corrector since he has a spare action. I have tried both.

Im actually a little interested in the accuracy corrector cluster missles combo. I have been running my advanced with prockets.

The main reason is because his offense is pretty pitiful without ATC. That being said, I love the combo of Juke and SJ on a single ship, and Vader's PS means he turns into a pretty effective jouster.

I'll probably try this out the next time I have time for a fun game.
