So last night I played my 1st game in almost a year. I decided to serve the Empire on my return to the battlefield. Here is my list.

Quickdraw

Snapshot

Special ops training

Fcs

WHISPER

VI

FCS

Adv Cloaking device

OMNICRON GROUP PILOT

Mara jade

Rebel captive

Antipursuit lasers

I got wiped by Dengar & Bossk. I was too agressive withthe shuttle, and boy am I rusty. I missed a few card abilities during the game. Just looking for thoughts on the list in general.

I think that some of the trouble may be that each of these ships are highly situational, and pretty fragile. Quickdraw wants to be shot at, Whisper can be really risky, and the shuttle is hard to move around.

Your list can pump out some firepower if the positioning works out and if Whisper doesn't get shot out of the air too quickly, but it might not be super reliable.

What about this?

“Quickdraw” [Snap Shot, Sensor Jammer, Special Ops Training] (35)

“Whisper” [Fire-Control System, Veteran Instincts, Advanced Cloaking Device] (39)

Omicron Group Pilot [Rebel Captive, Anti-Pursuit Lasers] (26)

Now your aces are both PS9, you can control how much damage Quickdraw gets to some extent, and your shuttle has a very specific role. Force bumps with the Lambda to get some free damage and prevent action, fly Quickdraw close to the Lambda to take advantage of the positioning, and flank with Whisper. Could be fun if you're careful about making sure that positioning is optimal for the initial exchange.

I like the concept, man. Lots of potential damage.

Thanks. Like i said, i got too agressive with the shuttle and it was the 1st casualty of the game. My other mistake was giving up initiative.

Why a Lambda shuttle and not just like a bomber shuttle for less points to get a crew on Whisper + an init bid?

EDIT: Also, Ion projector might work better than APL w/ Mara Jade, being able to freeze a small ship in place.

Only problem with this is that i currently only own 1 copy of lightweight frame.
