Cartel Spacer + Heavy Laser Cannon + Heavy Scyk Interceptor + Hull Upgrade

Took down 2 Miranda lists with it. :P

Protectorates are knife fighters, and that list makes you fly like a knife fight.

It's a rush when it works right, and when it doesn't... well, it's usually quick. Either way, it's messy.

No Jump, no Mindlink :)

Another Boba/Bossk user. Just wondering, why Determination?

At a guess, to hopefully fade some incoming crits because of Greedo.

Easy:

34 Fenn w/ PtL, AT, Title.
46 Bossk w/ VI, K4, Zuckuss, 4-LOM, HomingM, Chips.
18 Gunrunner w/ Tractor Array, Intel.

It's actually a really good list, and I've won quite a few games with it.

One of my favorite lists!!

Expert Handling (2)
K4 Security Droid (3)


Y-Wing: · Kavil (24)

Bossk - K4, DTF

MandoMerc - Dengar, Stims, Fearlessness, LRS, Slave1

Kaato - Concussion, Deadeye, Chips

Bounty Hunters 1 ( 100 )

Dengar — JumpMaster 5000 33

Ship Total: 53
Boba Fett (Scum) — Firespray-31 39
Fearlessness 1
Tail Gunner 2
Inertial Dampeners 1
Engine Upgrade 4

Ship Total: 47

probably nothing fancy but was doing pretty well

on the other hand, this siliness is not tested yet

Mandalorian Squadron 6 ( 100 )

Serissu — M3-A Interceptor 20
Veteran Instincts 1
Tractor Beam 1
Shield Upgrade 4
"Heavy Scyk" Interceptor (Cannon) 2

Uhm... any brobots list?

Talonbane Cobra — Kihraxz Fighter 28
Attanni Mindlink 1
Vectored Thrusters 2
Ship Total: 31
Fenn Rau — Protectorate Starfighter 28
Attanni Mindlink 1
Autothrusters 2
Concord Dawn Protector 1
Ship Total: 32
Guri — StarViper 30
Attanni Mindlink 1
Fire-Control System 2
Autothrusters 2
Virago 1
Ship Total: 36

Need some work but already quite potent. After my last testing, Guri needs to be changed for something else. A pilot with better PS for sure. Talonbane is surprisingly effective.

you beat me to it, if that makes you feel better about it?

How often do you fly them?

Someone recall that Boba/Kath list that went super far at Worlds

Kath had Expertise, HLC...right?

That list is my submission.

That list went 5-2 day 1 but sadly lost both games day 2. I almost had to play him, but they goofed up the pairings and gave me a loss from the round before. So then I wasn't paired with he Double Sprays anymore. Shame as o wanted to see how he flew it to make it work after I heard about it day 1.

A list I have titled 'Balls of steel'. The equivalent of 18 dice at R1, not that I have found the time to play it or an opponent that would let it happen. Mindlink would be the more efficient option but not as fun!

Grammar

Probably my Favourite List:

Fenn Rau: Autothrusters, Concord Dawn Protector, Attani.

Kath Scarlett: Engine Upgrade, Attani, 4-Lom.

Tansarii Point Veteran: Heavy Syck, Attani, "Mangler" cannon.

Probably my 2nd Favourite List Without Fenn and Without Attani (Of course, not a competitive list):

4-LOM: Mist Hunter, Wired, Zuckuss, Tractor Beam.

Palob Godalhi: Moldy Crow, Bodyguard, Blaster Turret, Recon Specialist.

Cartel Spacer: Heavy Scyk, Ion Cannon.

Jakku Gunrunner: Spacetug Tractor Array, BoShek.

Wating to CROC Expansion to make this list:

Fenn Rau: Autothrusters, Concord Dawn Protector, PTL

Talonbane Cobra: Engine Upgrade, Expertise, Cloaking Device

Genesis Red: Pulsed Ray Shield, Heavy Scyk, Veteran Instincts, Mangler Cannon

I've had fun with this list - you have some wiggle room with the last few points to tweak the Z-95 or Quadjumper as desired:

99 Points

Fenn Rau — Protectorate Starfighter 28
Attanni Mindlink 1
Autothrusters 2
Concord Dawn Protector 1
Ship Total: 32

Flew them regularly from release right through to October 2016. Won a store championship with 3 Marauders and 2 Mangler Scyks about a month after they were released and took the 5 Marauders to a top 40 finish at Yavin 2016. Missed the cut by one point (and probably a lot of MOV). :(

Haven't played them recently, though I wish I'd taken them to Yavin 2017 instead of the list I did take...

5x Binarye Pirate

Torkil Mux w/Autoblaster turret

Jakku Gunnrunner w/PA and tractor array.

Yes, it is actually competitive.

If you prefer mindlink:

Fenn w/AT, ML, title

Serrisu w/ML, title, HLC, Stealth

Kavil w/ML, TLT, Vectored thrusters, unhinged.

Also good.
