Just wondering if there is a build including these 2 ships that's competitive, the thought of 10 dice on 1 ship if flown correctly is such a lovely thought lol
Edited by Plymouthdean86Is there a Rau/talonbane build
I have a list that runs both of em. Never been in a tournament but I have won several times with it before. What list have you made?
I have played them alongside Manaroo before the nerf. Took the list to local regionals and won 3 out of 6 games, which isn't bad considering it was my first time playing competitively.
These are some pretty decent builds on Fenn and Talonbane, I just used Guri as i didn't want to make the obvious choice and use a JM5K.
| Fenn Rau — Protectorate Starfighter | 28 |
| Attanni Mindlink | 1 |
| Autothrusters | 2 |
| Concord Dawn Protector | 1 |
| Ship Total: 32 | |
| Talonbane Cobra — Kihraxz Fighter | 28 |
| Attanni Mindlink | 1 |
| Ship Total: 29 | |
| Guri — StarViper | 30 |
| Attanni Mindlink | 1 |
| Fire-Control System | 2 |
| EMP Device | 2 |
| Autothrusters | 2 |
| Virago | 1 |
| Ship Total: 38 | |
|
Nothing two special on Talonbane and Rau just what's efficient and cheap, makes each one strong without overcosying either and making them too valuable to lose. Hope this helps its pretty obvious but whatever

I would drop EMP on Guri for init bid.

I love this idea, and may need to put on the table soon. Personally, I think Cobra is going to need vectored thrusters!!!!
I was inspired by someone from this board (can't remember who or I'd give him credit) and made a Fenn, Old Teroch, and Talonbane list.
It's pretty fun to fly.
Fenn--Thrusters, PTL, Title
Old T--Fearlessness, Thrusters, Title Seismic
Talonbane--Fearlessness, Black market slicers, vectored thrusters
Comes in at 98 points.
Talonbane usually dies, but still manages to get a few salvos in. You throw a lot of red dice, and it doesn't even have mindlink.
Well, there's this list that throws 10 reds at Range 2/3 and 15 reds at R1:
Fenn w/ mindlink, title & thrusters = 32
Talonbane w/ mindlink, cloaking device & stygium = 33
Zuckuss w/ mindlink, FCS, mist hunter (+tractor beam) & outlaw tech = 34
99
Keep in mind the tractor beam is useless. You only take the title to give Zuckuss barrel roll for better repositioning. Its really mean when you get all 3 of them in range 1 of something...
Always thought it would be worthwhile putting engine upgrade on talonbane for arc dodging and giving him the ablity to get in close
I ran Fenn with title, autothrusters and mindlink, Talonbane with mindlink and vectored thrusters, Guri with mindlink, cloaking device, autothrusters and title at an tournament on monday just gone.
Went 2/2 and finished 8th out of 21. Fun to fly and when it works it realy destroys your opponents list (fairly convinced i got so high based on Mov, one of my friends was also 2/2 but they came 15th) should hvae done better in both my losses, one was a foolish bit of flying which my opponent exploited expertly and one was lost on final salvo as my one hull talonbane shot at a 3 health z95 at range one when he had deadmans switch and got 5 natural hits...... (should have had more patience).
Definately fun to fly, not sure its top tier but still worth a go. Talonbane seems like the weak link, to easy to pick off compared to the other two.

How about teroch/opportunist Zuckuss instead of Fenn?
