Any way to squeeze in Swarm Leader?

I think that's my favourite Swarm build ever. You can fit Swarm leader, but you have to drop one Tansarii down to a Cartel Spacer:

4 x Tansarii Point Veterans (16)

Attani Mindlink.

Light Scyk

Serissu (24)

Hull Upgrade

Swarm Leader

Light Scyk

Cartel Spacer (12)

Light Scyk

Total: 100 pts.

You get a decently offensive ship, but one that chucks four dice with focus as its biggest threat. YOu'd be better off with Heavy Scyk and a Heavy Laser Cannon there. I think I prefer the OP's swarm.

i figured Serissu getting the focus and taking evade was good enough for survival. Throwing swarm tactics on her basically loses a ship out of the build. All that Attanni, only one needs to focus. the rest can focus/ evade/barrel roll/target lock as needed. Having AG3 double tokened ships shooting PS5+, that's menacing there. Now I just need to decide if it is worth buying more scyks. Going to proxy for now.

You can't use Hull Upgrade with Light Scyk.

You could do 6 Light Cartel Spacers and Heavy Serissu with Swarm Leader and Hull Upgrade (5 health total).

The one problem is, that Serissu is the only fighter not benefiting from her improved defence - meaning she's both simultaneously the most dangerous ship and the easiest to kill. The hull upgrade might help, but I'd doubt she'll get to fire twice, and not firing once is a possibility.

Also - note that a hull upgrade has the problem that the hit point you're adding is another automatic face-up damage card due to the title.

Attani Mindlink Swarms are okay - the biggest problem is that you may lose Serissu's abiltiy a bit - the one thing you need to do with Attani Mindlink is come in in a relatively dispersed pack, so you can get away with only needing to K-turn ships one at a time, and managing with hard turns for everyone else. But, a spread-out squad doesn't support Serissu's abiltiy well.

I was wondering, in terms of a Tansarii Veteran swarm, if Fearlessness might work? For 1 point you essentially get the equivalent of 1-2 extra attack dice in a face-off. Light Scyks probably go 'pop' too easily for it, but it might work.

You can't use Hull Upgrade with Light Scyk.

Why not? E: oh, huh, I'd forgotten the new title blocks mods.

Mosquitos is right. It takes a lot to bring down an elephant, and in those terms, this isn't really a lot.

Reliably getting two hits at range 2 isn't really enough in the current meta.

The m3-a swarm has better name, it's Scyka Blyat
