No 2 die anti squadron ships and no squads? Courageous!

also no quad turbo lasers, REALLY courageous!!

Also placing admiral on a lifeboat without a fighter screen, EXTREMELY courageous.

You're a bold man my friend :D

and it has to be close to the fight! (repair crews)

So at what point does he go from "courageous" to what are you doing you madman?" Gotta be honest, I feel like he crossed that line. I like the Assault Frigates, though.

I tried a few lists with Cracken to combat squadrons...somehow they still find a way to chew through. A good amount of the Aces now have two anti-ship values and my Liberty/AF still got swarmed.

Not sure how Cracken helps with squadrons, pretty sure he only works against ships. Would be great if he did.

Would be incredible. Tried going speed three with a list like this to get to the carriers quickly, still got swarmed lol.

That makes more sense, bomber swarms have always been an issue for me, just can't seem to counter them well with a fleet I like.

@Warlord Zepnick you just drop it and leave! With a outside lane fleet like this gotta at least drop some thoughts on what you think strengths weaknessednare and how you think it could be flown.
