Who needs hammerhead corvettes when you can run ram-spam with General R. and Corvette-B's with e techs?

Also I'm pretty sure Mel is gonna make some serious coin on the military version of the Hammerhead....cause the poorly armed looked transport kinda...is meh...for me.
I will re-do it to fit the same amount of detail and scale.

Swarm Sloane has my Vote.Otherwise she should be more than Tarkin.
Defense Tokens are the Economy with which one buys Victory .......... And she takes them away from the enemy in handfuls.
Eh. The one thing Sloan does is scare the living heck out of Rieekan Aces. All those defense tokens just disappear after 1-2 engagements.

People who want to deal face up damage cards, activate first next turn for an External Racks and CF buffed attack, and either ram again for a killing blow, or get the hell out of dodge before they even get to return fire.
Probably. I definitely haven't thought that through as a potential weapon at all yet...
Racks on racks on racks!
RIP Vic Star Destroyers
LOL Sloan.
Welp, time to change factions!

Don't give up hope! Rebellions are built on hope, it's all we have left! You're our HERO!! If you leave, if YOU give up hope, our foundations are ruined!
Edited by NobodyInParticularI'm thinking about the boarding paries and it looks like Raider1 with Boarding Parties and External Racks may be a winning combination for imperials for only 50 points.
ISD-Is love Sloan and Boarding Parties :>

Thanks mate

I'm not convinced. I think that those slots are too valuable on ISD for one time effect. And if Sloan is in play, taking Avenger instead is more effective. I can see the argument for boarding parties for non-Sloan Avenger though.

Flip side is you only get one spend for those points, and the extra two black only once. As someone recently converted to the devastation otherwise known as OE and Flechettes, I'm not willing to give that up yet. Also 49 pts

VSDs just got the ability to throw black dice at long range. I'm not sure if they're as boned as you think.

Yes, but Raider may not live long enough for the second chance to use them (I do see the argument for OE/External Racks approach as well or OE/Flechettes. its just three different loadouts for three different missions)

How? (And I think that VSDs are viable as is)

Exactly, the Raider may have just become a toolbox, outfit for what you want it to do. Cheap enough to take one of each, one for boarding, one for tying up squadrons.
I'm looking at the zoomed in .png file, and I think the Hammerheads actually only have three hull. The little line of the number has a curve to it, and the left side looks rounded, disconnected. If so they will likely be DIRT cheap, and I will field a massive number of them!

Yeah, and then they strip the Defense Tokens from Ships 25% of the time. Even while TIE Fighters.

That's the card you have to discard right?
The quasar thingy is more of a threat to the vic's role as a carrier.

I've been using Raiders with Flechettes, ACM, and APT, and can confirm they're already a toolbox. A beautiful, diverse, fragile toolbox.
That said, I can't see much of an argument in favour of Racks over Flechettes, or even APT, on them. A point more for consistent squadron control seems important now more than ever.
