I have some new Scum toys coming and I wanted to try and make a weird list. I don't have all the components yet (don't have the cards or it is not out yet), but it seems fun in theory. The Contracted Scout is basically a suicide bumpmaster. When the ship is about to die, you use Vizago to switch out Feedback Array for a Dead Man's Switch. Manaroo can also make an effective blocker as well. Let me know how you think it would do!

Jumpmaster 5000- Manaroo
Attanni Mindlink
Anti-Pursuit Lasers
(30)

Jumpmaster 5000- Contracted Scout
Attanni Mindlink
Anti-Pursuit Lasers
Cikatro Vizago
Feedback Array
(30)

Lancer-class Pursuit Craft- Asajj Ventress
Attanni Mindlink
Latts Razzi
(40)

I think the question is does the scout give you any advantages over Fenn? Because essentially the only difference between this list and that was his him. You gain a lot of hull and some shields for a big decrease in firepower. The Scout is a better blocker. It may come down to play style.

I agree that it completely comes down to playstyle. I am going to try both variants. The feedback array I think does a good job of dealing with pesky aces while the beefier body also holds up better to unlucky green dice. Another factor that could eventually be a big deal is if the Quadjumper and Kylo start gaining real traction (Fenn really does not want Damaged Cockpit, Blinded Pilot, or the threat of being tractor beamed onto a rock).

I went in a slightly different direction. I hate the self kill cards (looking at you Vader). This was my take:

(100)

Manaroo (31) - JumpMaster 5000
Attanni Mindlink (1), R5-P8 (3)

Contracted Scout (29) - JumpMaster 5000
Attanni Mindlink (1), Intelligence Agent (1), Anti-Pursuit Lasers (2)

Asajj Ventress (40) - Lancer-class Pursuit Craft
Attanni Mindlink (1), Latts Razzi (2)

a little bit of "should I" for Manaroo and a decent number in the scout. I'd be interested to see the Quad. I fear it might just be a Roman candle and blow too quickly.
