Looking for some help with the upcoming store Championships season. Will be posting 3 Lists (one for each Faction) and id like Opinions.

This time its the Imperials

Tomax Bren (24)
Crack Shot (1)
Extra Munitions (2)
Unguided Rockets (2)
Seismic Charges (2)
Lightweight Frame (2)

"Omega Leader" (21)
Juke (2)
Comm Relay (3)
Stealth Device (3)

Colonel Vessery (35)
Veteran Instincts (1)
Tractor Beam (1)
Twin Ion Engine Mk. II (1)
TIE/D (0)

Total: 100

View in Yet Another Squad Builder

So Tomax is waiting for Wave 11 (hopefully not to far out) as a 3 Shot ship that doesnt give up a R3 defense bonus as well as Crackshot every turn. Lightweight frame makes him a poor mans AG3 too with bombs to 'pursuade' people to reconsider getting behind him. Omega does what Omega does as well as allowing Vessery to do what he does. Fairly simple but i like it.

The other lists are here.

Why would you run Thomax without ordnance in this list?

Loaded Backdraft would cost the same and would be a better choice here with its dial and FCS that synergizes with Vessery.

Well i can drop the Stealth Device on Olly to fit in a Torpedo. That was stuck on there because i had spare points, i know its not needed but i figured Tomax's unguided Rockets might be enough.

In my mind that would be a better choice as otherwise in the initial encounter you will be split between Thomax target locking for Vessery and focusing for unguided rockets.

Well, Omega Leader will be Target Locking for Vessery in most instances, Tomax just has the best chance at putting in damage at R3 with just a focus.

I really like Tomax and the Bombers excellent dial. Looks like a great list and something I would try for sure. That's also how I like to build Vess. Nice.
