A build question

By Teufelscuba, in Star Wars: Armada

Hello All,

I am a player who has been away from Armada for over a year and am returning...trying to get a group to play locally. I have a question and forgive me if this is ground that has been already taken: Has anyone tried the ISD-II, Avenger, Screed, Overload pulse combo. IF...IF my theory is correct then it should almost completely prevent the use of defense tokens when Avenger attacks, that being said im not sure if the points sunk in get a good enough return on the investment. Just a thought, if anyone has tried this and it fell flat let me know, im considering it for a CC fleet...Cheers

I am pretty certain that due to the order things are done the avenger can not make use of its own overload pulse. you can use a dictor with it but you will likely not get the shot with a meta of high activations. If you try it people will just move out of the way before you can pull it off.

Sorry to clarify, dictor triggers it and avenger fires after. In tournament play I got it to work once, didn't bother to try again.

Raider II could be your trigger but again pulling it off is really hard.

Yes, you are correct... in theory

Yes, it is very difficult to "pull off" because it is so deadly and so firing the OLP on the "activating ship" gives away the ISD target & it just runs before your next activation (as Benji1980 has said)

The ISD can only use it's own OLP if it uses side arc for first shot then follow up with main arc. This takes many skillz.
