There is only one choice that his Majesty the Emperor approves of.. Imperial Class Star-Destroyers.

Pelta Command Cruisers! Park 2 side by side and I've got a Rebel ISD2.

Triple ISDs.

Not exactly the most competitive, but they scare the heck out of certain lists.

Gladiators.

Rock it wave one Gencon Special style and just mindlessly rush the other guy for the early KO.

Once External Racks are out, Raiders. Oh yes, Raiders.

Lately I'm gonna have to say Arquitens. Been having WAY too much luck with them. CR-90 would be a dang near tie though.

Considering how repair crews have been shot down as an inferior upgrade to the other flotilla upgrades, I'm very interested to know how do you fly them and this fleet?

Fun: MC80 home ones =). Can you imagine a 3 MC80 list??

Competitively: MC30s are one of the best ships in the game. add some rogues for sq defense.

More options: AFs with Akbar, AFs with squadrons. Very very stable.

Sadly AFs are being power creeped out. They need a little something if they aren't being taken for these two options. As Ackbar frigates or as a squadron pusher.

AFs will be the only other reb ship that can take boarding upgrades of wave 6. Dunno if that will certainly boost their value but that's another sell point for them.

So far the ships I felt the most need to get multiples of so far are my 3x Corellian Corvettes and 2x Victory Star Destroyers.

As many Arq's as I could fit. Such a good small ship.

If I had to pick the same ship and I knew my opponent would be doing the same, then I'd definitely pick nebs. Reminds me of my first tournament list....3 nebs with Xi-7 and a CR90.

Otherwise, I'm tempted to say CR90s or Arqs. Maybe raiders, but that's balsy

There's a guy in my area who does this. He's got other fleets he's working on, but for a couple tournaments now, he's just had five Glads with no squadron cover. As bomber lists improve, his results are slowly worsening, but it's a lethal list that's difficult to deal with because he flies it so expertly.

And for myself, multiple ISDs, duh. Do I have to have just I-1s or I-2s, or can I mix and match?

Team America: World Police reference for anyone who's wondering where in the world this is coming from

Tagge and a mess of TRCkittens! Ohhh yeah!

Point for point CR-90's for me. 2 ship fleets are boring for my taste and I am all about maneuvering and you can't really out maneuver your opponent with only large ships. They are way too predictable and are mostly just a push and roll ship without support ships to flank.

But then again a spam fleet of CR-90's is also just cruel. Take a lot of Rogue Squadrons and almost any commander works and is already a competitive list.

Decimators. Oh, wait...

I sense a new Vassal tournament theme!!!

Seriously, it'd be free of any flotilla-related controversy (unless someone brought Tokra's list of course)...

As for my choice, since no one's mentioned it, how about the classic triple space potato with a side of Ackbar?

Yeah, I've gotta go Correllian Corvettes or Assault Frigates, here. I think it'd be fun either way.

triple LMC80 star cruisers with madine!

Empire: Interdictors with a nice fighter wing.

Rebels: AFMKII for their versatility. Or if I would want to win ugly, CR90Bs with Rieekan.

Id happily run 4-5 Arquitens under Vader.

For Rebels? I think Id go with Corvettes.

I like 3 x Interdictors as Gunships.

4 x Arqs with Vader as another option.

honestly, with boarding teams and boarding engineers on the way (and as someone else mentioned external racks)...Raider-I's
