Slaved Turrets on Arquitens??? its a broadside boat...

I think the idea is that at long range the single red die from your front or rear arc if you double arc an opponent would just be evaded by the defence token so might as well go with a 4-5 red dice side shot with Vader rerolls.

^^This...EXACTLY!!! Now I need to find space for the title cards for the Arq's...

Vader does love wave 5. Colonel jandon

That's a tough 20pt squad to make room for...

I suppose I can drop SA to get the Arq titles and then drop Jonus and the comms net on Vader's ship to add Jendon...

Jendon basically gives you the same ability that the Centicore title does...right?

If you're going that route, I'd rather drop Rhymer over dropping Jonus. That auto-accuracy will be more useful, even with Vader's reroll.

Also, Jendon is the one that lets a squadron attack twice. So squadron vader loves him. Commander vader doesn't care. All lambdas give the equivalent of the Centicore title, including Jendon, but that's not his special ability.

what are we spending acc on.... if we are at long, locking an evade isnt great... if he has two evades then screw it... locking a redirect or brace while he evades is meh as well... f the opponent is even somewhat annoyed by jonus, he can take em out easy... drop jomus for intel officers on arqs
