Featuring the most metal pilot name ever, Genesis Red!

It's fitting that this list dishes out a pretty gross amount of firepower. In testing thusfar, Genesis has been great, especially with all of the great action economy out there. Even at 31 points, you're often out matching a defender in action efficiency, at a much lower cost. High pilot skill and moving second are pretty important.

What do you think?

My only question is this. How are you able to play Genesis Red? From what I've read, the C-ROC expansion isn't out yet.

The Scyk exists; in a casual game, just proxy the pilot with the old dial and mini

I know it exists. I just didn't think proxying the pilot would be allowed unless you had the pilot card and base, that's all. I mean, I know people proxy upgrades.

Sorry, that may have come across as overly rude on my end. It's generally no different from proxying upgrades, so long as you ok it with your opponent for a casual game, especially since you can print out the spoiled card to use. A lot of people do stuff like that before the new wave drops in order to hit the ground running when it does, especially if they have a tournament right after.

No, you're good. Words can always be taken out of context, I know that all too well.

And that's cool that it can be done. I may do such a thing as well. Thanks for the info.

So excited for Scyk Goodness. Always loved the little ship and it's great to see some good ideas of how to use them. Genesis Red seems like a load of fun. Can't wait for him to drop.

To actually comment on the list, I think that it looks good. Not sure how much use you'd get out of Pulsed Ray Shield, but I also can't think of any better modification to give it while maintaining an init bid.

Not for nothing, but I've just started playing Scyk and I've found that Laetin A'shera is really tough to hit when I drop Stealth Device (3) on her. I finish it off with the "Heavy Scyk" Interceptor (2) title and a Flechette Cannon (2) it's a modest 25pt ship especially against Gunner. At one point I had 4 evade tokens on her by the end of one combat phase. If you want to spend the points, switch the Mangler for the HLC and it goes to a 30pt ship. With the HLC you get 4 reds from range 2&3 and 3 from range 1, but I choose to spend my extra 5pts elsewhere. Potato, potato.

Forgive formatting - I'm looking forward to:

Fenn - PTL, CDP, Auto

Genesis - VI, Heavy, Mango, Hull

COBRA - Expertise, EU

99 - 1 point bid

Love me some Cobra
