Special Format Wave 5 List

So we've got a special format tournament this week to celebrate the new wave. The rules are that we have to build to 300pts with a new Admiral and at least one new ship and squadron.

Here's what I've got so far:

Faction: Galactic Empire
Points: 300/300
Commander: Moff Jerjerrod
Assault Objective: Precision Strike
Defense Objective: Fire Lanes
Navigation Objective: Dangerous Territory
Arquitens-class Light Cruiser (54 points)
- Tactical Expert ( 6 points)
- Dual Turbolaser Turrets ( 5 points)
= 65 total ship cost
Gozanti-class Cruisers (23 points)
- Expanded Hangar Bay ( 5 points)
- Bomber Command Center ( 8 points)
= 36 total ship cost
[ flagship ] Victory II-Class Star Destroyer (85 points)
- Moff Jerjerrod ( 23 points)
- Gunnery Team ( 7 points)
- Boosted Comms ( 4 points)
- Leading Shots ( 4 points)
= 123 total ship cost
1 Maarek Steele ( 21 points)
1 TIE Advanced Squadrons ( 12 points)
1 Major Rhymer ( 16 points)
3 TIE Bomber Squadrons ( 27 points)
-------------------------
My thoughts are that the Arquitens will attempt to flank but at the very least provide some consistent downrange firepower. The Victory will spam Squadron commands along with the Gozanti but stay as far back as possible. The Gozanti will split the difference in order to get BCC in range to do some good.
Any suggestions? Much appreciated!

Id Take off tactical Expert for an x17 for vic. Off with leading shots to upgrade tie advanced to tempest squadron, its the same but for an extra point, its a bomber. Youd have 3 more Points, maybe 1-2 skilled First officer, and One point bid to enable you to pick 2nd Player with precision strike, Fighter ambush, superior positions.

I don't have any SFO's, unfortunately.


Pulling the Tactical Expert I can slot in Needa for a second Evade on the Arquitten (should be more valuable than a contain, right?) and switched Maarek and a bomber out to generic Defenders which'll have more value as anti-Squadron while maintaining Bomber. I also don't intend to purchase Corellian Conflict (at least initially) so I won't have Tempest.


Seems to me that having Leading Shots would be more valuable than X17's. I have a better chance of rolling accuracies so I should be able to lock down their tokens anyway, right?

I think youd want to spend those precious accuracies on scatter/brace. X17 is against redirect. Well, if you play rhymerball, if you start with them, there is a good chance you can burn those tokens before you take the shot with your ship. Needa is a solid officer on Arqutiens, but with him, replace DTT with TRC.
