APT - Likely going to be flechette for super AA, just don't know the points yet. Likely going to be 4-5pts though.

Arquitens

Needa

Reinforced Blast Doors

Tubo Reroute

Jonus

Vader

385

I'm thinking Impetuous on the Raider is a good thing the Arquitens titles might change that though.

It's a neat list, but really ship heavy. Jonus will not survive with only Vader protecting him. Expect to face lists with 134 points in squads, if you run into that, you will never get to use Jonus and your ships will get melted. Going to be fun to find the right kind of list for the light cruiser, need to see the new imperial squads. Glads want to be close and light cruisers want range, I'm looking at trying to run two light cruisers, two victory i, with the rest in squads. Hoping we get some options to run less than max squads without getting rolled.

I would instigator up your raider and pair him up with a group of tie fighters, this will allow you to pin a bomber blob in situ to be taken apart by Demo and instigators dice.

I think I would change out insid for a second cheap Arquitens. You have Demo and instigator for the dirty knife work, a third knife fighter may just get in your way. 2 Arquitens is a who lot of nasty long range power, which will force them to come in close for Demo and Insti to hit.

In the new waves I would not send out Demo on his own as a last first ( it just does not work any more, bombers are to deadly, ships have mitigation ect),keep them all in formation, let the bombs in close then hit them with demo and friends while the Arquitens add AA dice if needed or take chunks from the carrier.

Kallus should be on the Raider since Demo is going to attack ships. I think you should work Intel in here so Jonus doesn't get pinned down.
