I like running new stuff. i also like runny weird lists so thought i'd try out Ahsoka.

Given my babies are now back in the Meta i thought i'd run the K's again as well.

Can i get your opinions on this list

For a viable bombs list, you're going to want more action bombs, which get expensive very quickly. Connor nets are your best bet, both for giving you control, and for doing reliable damage. They can ALSO set you up for your non-action bombs, if you still have room for any.

If you're not bringing action bombs, then Advanced SLAM is far less valuable, and, honestly, the Warden isn't really as important anymore.

I like the idea of having Miranda in the list, but you're going to find yourself extremely tight on points. Also, her higher PS means she's actually going to be a far worse bomb-caddy than the Warden, who can reliably move & drop his payload first.

I'm open to dropping proximity mines on Miranda but quite like it with Ahsoka dishing out free actions all the time so if needed i can spit a proximity mine in someones face just before the combat phase!

just noticed i have Intel Agent on both Miranda and Warden! which one would you replace and who with!

Hah... I just flew similar. The thread is likely only on page 2. I too was considering Miranda as the second K-wing, but ended up flying two Wardens instead. I sorta regret the idea, as Miranda gives you options of how to fight, sacrificing a few bombs though...

• Lighten the bombload on Miranda to bring the price on her head down a bit and so you can boost your second K-wing. Miranda is going to attract a lot of heat just being Miranda, no need to make her half your list.
• Conner Nets are much more dependable that proximity mines... though I admit the theoretical damage spike is quite wonderful on prox mines.
• Sabine's pimped out ride works pretty well, but have a plan how to deal with aces and the potential late game if your initial bomb run goes bad.

Edit: I greatly underestimated the growth of this area...

Miranda can be fine without action bombs, but probably doesn't need Advanced SLAM, then, as that's primarily going to be used as an escape route, not a combat bomb drop.

I'd have to play around where I'd adjust points, but Rec Spec on a combat-oriented Miranda always sounds like a good idea. Or even C-3P0 to make her incredibly annoying to kill.

So torn between recon spec or tactician on Miranda, I'm unsure what I will face. Lol

I was tempted with Rey on her but don't have hotr yet

I'd argue strongly against Tactician. As it only works on arc, you're likely not to get more than one or two uses of it -- and those are probably going to result in you SLAMing the next turn. Miranda doesn't want head on engagements, if she's going to make the most out of her TLT. And, even with Regen, you don't want her taking focus fire, so jousting isn't the correct play.

C-3P0 or Rec Spec is really up to what you want her role to be. If your opponent aims for the Warden first (likely), then Miranda is going to have some regrets NOT taking Rec Spec. If Miranda is the primary target (it's possible, if the opponent doesn't think they'll have an answer for her regen late game), then C-3P0 is going to help buy your other ships time to do their job.

I'd probably recommend C-3P0 in the end -- you're likely not going to care to spend a focus on any shot you're using to regen your shields.

Almost finished the first test game and end game is Ahsoka with 2 hull left and Vessery with Tie D (tractor beam) and 2 hull left!

that tractor beam really hurts Miranda. i managed to take out Turr with a nicely placed cluster mine spread (flew through all 3) and Inquisitor got splash bombed a few times.

I reckon against the normal Meta this may work but Ashoka doesn't seem to be worth it in this setup as she doesnt contribute an awful lot (had 2 or 3 uses from her and ended up with just an extra focus i couldn't spend)

Eh. Normal meta has Fenn, who wipes out Ahsoka quickly, unless you're able to bomb him quick (which is harder for only two Ks).

Ahsoka's damage output doesn't really come close to a bombing Warden, AND Ventress shuts down her ability right quick.

Yeah, as long as Paratanni is a thing, this list isn't remotely meta-viable, unfortunately. Fun, maybe, but not competitive.

I prefer to keep Ahsoka cheap for this reason... If Fenn (or another PS9 ace) is on the board, hang back. Tour the map as though you were Manaroo. The more you pile on that TIE however, the more it has to be able to do to make up it's points. Two Ks and a TIE is still viable as a bomber list, but variations of it won't be.

Totally Agreed. Seeing a few more ps9-10 again. Had a brilliant game against Adaptability Dengar. A bit of luck and skillful bombing got me the win but Ahsoka did nothing apart from explode turn 3 (Actually no, she Connored the Quadjumper so that bought me an extra round later I guess). I think Id rather spend her points on Biggs or maybe a Stresshog.

Going back through the game, we played Vessery's ability wrong (my friend misread the print out and didnt see the "if they have have a red target lock" bit) and i didn't check it lol.

Rematch next week, might get a bit of practice in flying it again. i think i only managed to get 1 lot of TLT shots off out of arc and had a range 1 normal turret burn 2 hull of inquisitor at range 1.

Well i don't know if i can get the tie in time for the tournament so i need a back up plan!

I have access to a Hwk, A's, X's, B's and y's.

apart from Roark is there anyone else that might fit in?

Here is an easy to fly list, that you can field with a few choices on Mirandas build. It normally does allright
Miranda, TLT, EM, Homing, Sabine or Rey, Cluster or Conner, Ion or Seismic, AS (52)
Y-wing TLT (24)
Y-wing TLT (24)
