Hi, new to the game. I was toying with what I'm calling the "Bro Bossk" I want to make sure if I am understanding the game mechanics correctly so any advise is greatly appreciated.

Here we go!

Bossk

PTL

Mangler Cannon

IG-88D

Recon Specialist

K4

Engine Upgrade

IG88-C

PTL

Fire Control System

Mangler Cannon

Glitterstim

IG-2000 title.

if I'm getting this right. Maneuvering: Green move bossk get a target lock, boost get an evade from IG-88 ability, ptl focus (X2 recon specialist)get my stress. Next round green move remove stress get target lock , boost (get evade) ,ptl focus.

Firing with mangler cannon. Example get hit change to a crit cancel crit for two more hits? using target lock & a focus as necessary. Then IG88 get same benefit from mangler cannon with bossks ability correct?

I hope to play it this weekend, opinions?

Hello!

Some good upgrade combos on your selected ships, unfortunately IG88D does not flow both ways. So in your list Bossk gets IG88C's ability (an evade after using his EU to boost), but IG88C won't get Bossk's ability.

This is a slightly different approach I've taken with the same two ships. Purely theory crafted at this stage (nowhere near enough table time as I would like.)

Moralo Eval — YV-666 34 Heavy Laser Cannon 7 Zuckuss 1 IG-88D 1 Dengar 3 Glitterstim 2 Ship Total: 48

IG-88B — Aggressor 36 Veteran Instincts 1 Sensor Jammer 4 Heavy Laser Cannon 7 Glitterstim 2 Autothrusters 2 IG-2000 0 Ship Total: 52

Swapping Dengar for Bossk is also viable - if you miss, you get a focus+TL and fire again

I will try to change on Moralo glitterstim and dengar to bossk and a hull upgrade.

because ig88 and moralo have the same PS i change veteran instincts to crack shot and perhaps sensor jammer to fcs.

thoughts?

I have played this list with decent success. Fun list to fly, just don't lose IG first

I've had moderate success. In the hands of a better player it could be really good. There are plenty of options for Scum crew (Zuckuss might be good... he seems to be the flavour of the month). A more conventional IG build might be preferred by some (swap out Fearlessness, FCS, and HLC and bring in PTL, Advanced Sensors, and Mangler Cannon)
