Yavaris has Squadron 2.
Steele is in position and does not have to move. As is Jendon.

Steele Shoots Twice, as is allowed by Yavaris.
Jendon has the opportunity to shoot twice, gives up both opportunities to make Steele Fire Twice.
One of the two is Re-De-Activated by Adar Tallon afterwards, and allowed to activate again later, either by Squadron or a further ship command. Activating either one will allow Maarek to shoot again, assuming someone is still in range... As either he does so directly, or Jendon gets him to shoot again.

Its dependant on being able to MOVE Jendon/Steele into a position beforehand, to let Yavaris do its Dirtywork, because with Adar Tallon on Yavaris, you cannot rely on FC/FCT to do the final placement for you....

It would be legit, if not for the fact that you need to Cross-Faction either Jendor+Maarek, or Yavaris with Adar Tallon.

Just an absolute ***** to do... Like a Triple Tapping Keyan Farlander back at Wave 1 Full Release. Pre even Wave 2.

... and arguably, as I look at it now... Triple Tapping Keyan in said situation is still capable of doing more damage than Maarek Quint-tapping... If we're talking about Bombing.

We'd have to be comparing to Wedge Triple-Tapping on an Activated Squadron Target to get the same Comparable Damage output that way.

I was thinking the same thing, but if cross faction is the name of the game, rhymer get in there.... positioning problem solved lol

that said I'd probably stick to stele, keyan is better for damage but in all my rolls with Stele I've always gotten a minimum of 2 damage. Keyan could do more, and with rerolls probably would, but I'll take a sure thing any day. Lol

Even then, you're still banking on having position, and/or intel, and all of that. Its not point-and-click.

My point was more, "It seems stupidly ludicrous, but in all honesty, its not that bad."

I mean, if we're cross-factioning. I'd be more impressed by a Rhymer-Jendon-Keyan-Yavaris Combo, given that light.

Wouldn't you ?

Because if a Quint-Tapping-Maarek is about the same as a Triple-Tapping-Keyan.... What's a Quint-Tapping-Keyan going to be like ?

Sloane + b-wings (x-wings/e-wings too) but the blue to sloaning and the black to put some damage... Toryn Far a bit if needed.

Riekan's RBD-ISDs :P

Tallon + Boba double damage

Blount + Howl + interxeptors/fighters + Toryn or another way to be sure you deal 6 damage.

Rhymer + Norra happy birthday!!

Corrupter + every rebel bomber.

Tarkin + Pelta

Blissex + Vader

Ackbar + TRC-Architens

Tagge + TRC90 or TRC Salvation

You are all missing Luke. Join him with Dodonna and there is no ship he cannot drop in a single turn.

I deliberately ignored Wiff walker for someone who actually hits a bloody ****.

The most damage he could do is 10 with 5 structural damages, for 15 total.

Brace and contain can reduce that total to 11 (or 9 if you are the Endeavor).

So yes, even an ISD goes down with 5 attacks from Luke. But not a Motti ISD :D

and I guess that's fair. It only took him 1 shot to kill the Death Star...

Awesomeness candidates:

Luke

Literally the top of the list.

I agree, he'd be outrageous I this kind of scenario. Particularly since it can happen anywhere on the entire board without respect to Yavaris' location.

Demolisher and Madine.

Victories and Madine

ISD /light carriers and Leia commander version

Sato, Overload Pulse, Avenger?

Home One (title) plus Arqitens?

Darth Vader on any MC80?

Quintuple Tapping Nym on something would be pretty funny to possibly strip tokens.

Quintuple Tapping Nym on something would be pretty funny to possibly strip tokens + Sloane ;)

Tarkin + Pelta + Int with Nua and Redundant shields and projection experts

Tarkin plus fleet commands

Rhymer, Nora and 7 B-Wings.

Toryn on a BCC flotilla nearby with Sloane as admiral.

Which (Dras will back me on this) you absolutely know will roll at least 4 blanks the first time you roll it.

Dengar and shara bey

Everyone is talking squadrons while I am thinking about running Demolisher in a Cracken fleet.

Seriously?

Maybe you should think about Ackbar's Demolisher

:P

Easily 6B2R after move with ET.
