EMPIRE FLEET 398 -
Concept: Arkitten Conga Line with a heavy Squadron support in the middle. Rhymer has escorts, Bossk/Jendon/Zertik for squadron cover, Ozzel is leading to free up points. Actually considered Tarkin with this one- between Wulff and Aresko we're already reaching to push all our squadrons, but i like having the token shenanigans spread out instead of all in one place. Also considered TRCs on the Kittens, but with only 1 evade i think it cedes too much survivability.

Instead of complicated Wulff and Aresko token shuffling, why would you not simply use the Command Cruisers instead? Wulff and Aresko together are 14 points, just 1 point short of upgrading all three cruisers to the Command version...

I like the officers on cheaper ships- it's true that they'll often be using their abilities to make a cheaper version of the same 2 squadrons value, but by using the officer tokens to do it the ships don't need to necessarily spam squadron commands.

One kitten can spam squadron commands and pass tokens to Aresko, and Wulff can keep rolling his, and get 4 squadron commands across the kittens with only 1 ship actively pushing the command. It frees up the others to do concentrated fire, and the fleet needs more damage output.
