So I'm pretty sure this technically works as expected, but wondering how to make this better:

So, Quickdraw fires first, grabs a TL with FCS. Vader fires his Clusters using Quickdraw's TL and keeping his own. He then gets to fire two- 3 dice shots and add a crit to each shot. If he can somehow make it so it's through an obstacle, he can fire two essentially 5 dice attacks at a target first turn.

After that, Quickdraw could keep his TLs for himself, or share with PS or Vader if trying to knock out a ship that turn. Thoughts?

Advanced targeting computer is Primary weapon only, so Vader could use his target lock to re-roll one of the cluster missile attacks but he couldn't add a crit to them.

****. Back to the drawing board...

Also, Adv Targeting Computer doesn't spend the TL, so doesn't work with Targeting Synchronizer, right?

That is the understanding from the recent FAQ. Targeting Synchronizer is for "Attack[TL]:" headers and spending target locks which specifically denies Advanced Targeting Computer as well as Omega Leader's pilot ability.

@Raven19528 on the topic of making two 5-die attacks on the first turn you might give my current favorite list a try:

(36) TIE/SF Fighter: •"Quickdraw" (29)
Twin Ion Engine Mk. II (1)
Special Ops Training (0)
•Swarm Leader (3)
Electronic Baffle (1)
Pattern Analyzer (2)

(16) TIE Fighter: •"Youngster" (15)
Rage (1)

(48) 4x TIE Fighter: Academy Pilot (12)

Total: 100/100

It's a lot more moving parts than the list in the original post, but on the other hand two five die attacks with rerolls is par for the course

I assume getting the above to range 1 isn't allowed???

Getting QD range 1 with all the TIE fighters on target (and not bumping any of your own) is the double six dice attack, but it's harder than it sounds.

@nitrobenz I see your double 6, and raise you triple 6 (with a 7 thrown in there):
