Shouldn't it be kill an ISD with a single b wing?

He's talking about a scene from the show Rebels.

Which does mean that Darth Vader should be able to take out a Pelta solo!

Had the same exact thought!

I have added another elite mode sub-quest

Seems to me there is a "compact" game or scenario setup with all of this. 3x3, Pelta, Ghost, Kenyu, Vader, Cr90, Arquitens so e objective tokens to transfer...

Yup. Playing out scenes from Rebels is too tempting! (Thank you FFG for finally putting hotshot Hera into Armada!) Be cool to see a house rule where "Fulcrum" is revealed and damage ensues.

Oh hey. Are we getting phoet squadron? That would be neat.

Hmmm.... Nevermind, I don't want to fly against the Protectorates. :P

I think the ship we got in Armada is more supposed to represent the 'ideal', fully-staffed, Phoenix Home. Which, of course, we never saw in the show. The ship, as seen in that episodes, was understaffed, unprepared, and caught by surprise.

So...Vader 'soloing' Phoenix Home (Pelta-type command ship), but give it no defense tokens, and deal it the 'Crew Panic' and 'Point Defense Failure' critical cards before the match begins.

Trick is that there were still (IIRC) 4 or 5 CR90s and that squadron of A-Wings (not to mention the Ghost). Still...sort of a ridiculous uphill fight for Vader.

I have found myself wanting to design lists based on Rebels multiple times, currently I'm eyeballing the "Interdictor & double Light Cruiser" combo from S2E9 though Phoenix Squadron is also very tempting for my Alliance. Multiplease CR-90s backed by Phoenix Home, A-Wings and Ghost looks like a very entertaining list.

Trying to take outhe Ghost with Kallus is a failing endevor, their plot armor is far too strong! (Translation: Hera's Ghost should have at least two Scatters and a brace)

Was that supposed to be Phoenix Squadron? Looks like a phone spell check fail. (I have Many of those.) That would be fun and if Ahsoka made it in there that would be awesome. Not to mention who would the Protectorates work for? They worked for the Empire to begin with but they never really flew for the Rebels before being killed off.

Yup. PHOENIX squad. I am the king of typos.
