I personally expect dual IG-88, along with other large ships (Falcon), to reappear with wave 10. Tractor beams from wave 9 (Shadowcaster) has had an effect on my local meta, but the prevalence of Imperial aces is still there. The Quadjumper and its upgrade will push things further along (sorry for the pun); this is another tool of "low PS ships affecting higher PS ones".

I'm excited for what the future holds.

#20 (6-2, 30, 1062) - Bob Randall

2015 Regionals Winner: Pittsburgh, PA, USA

2015 NOVA Open Top 4

IG88B&C + VI + HLC + FCS + Inertial Dampeners + Autothrusters + IG-2000

This is the list I had been running. Had a lot of success locally. It will be missed.

It sounds like their hasn't been a lot of change to 'BroBots' with the last couple releases (HoR, Wave IX, and Rogue One). Going forward it looks like I'll be focusing on SingleBot and Friend or the IG-88D crew card.

Majorjuggler sure knows a lot about that Bob guy.

funny how you never see the two of them at the same time...

They both always seem to give me the same advice about squads...
