Forgot an upgrade card...again

Swap desthrains bomb for Proximity mine x1, then give black Squadron crack shot instead of ASTS, then give Pure Sabboc Light Weight Franes

Alright, and I forgot to put it in, but LWF is on deathrain (and I only have one copy)

If that is the case, drop it and give it to Sabboc, then give Deathrain ion bombs.

Why ion bombs?

Control of the battle field, maybe catch a large ship going off the edge of the board or onto an asteroid, or an ace so they cannot clear stress. And its also just a cheeky way to give desthrain the ability to barrel roll before he moves so he can avoid a rock, the edge of the board, etc without threatening damage to himself or other ships.

I'd consider Wampa instead of the Black Sq Pilot. People seem to like to target him because of his ability. If you're playing casual I'd proxy LWF. I think it'll work well on a bomber Punisher as it's very likely to trigger even for attacks at range 3 or obstructed and you don't need Guidance Chips. You could consider Unguided Rockets for the Punisher as well if you think you're going to have a focus token (and have the points).

If you are doing enhanced scopes, get action bombs. Deployment bombs are really hard to pull off with PS0, consider dropping lightweight frame and just getting clusters and conners. That way you can hit anybody whenever you like.

If you have wampa, I would also take him over your black. His ability triggers less but can happen on any target, and is a serious issue for ships with Shields.

Other than that, the list looks fun and actually reasonably competitive for a casual list ? ?
