Hey guys,

I follow the forums frequently, but rarely ever post. I wanted to get any input on this list for an upcoming championship. My guess is most people will be playing some sort of mindlink list. I think three aces would be viable and I have two options:

Soontir Fel (32)

PTL (3)

Autothrusters (2)

Quickdraw (36)

Crack Shot (1)

FCS (2)

Sensor Cluster (2)

Special Ops Training (0)

Lightweight Frame (2)

And EITHER -

Countess Ryad (32)

ASTS (0)

TIE/x7 (-2)

OR -

Carnor Jax (32)

Adaptability (0)

Royal Guard Tie (0)

Shield Upgrade (4)

Autothrusters (2)

I am leaning towards Carnor to disrupt the mind link focusing, but at the same time, I like Ryad as a stand alone with better survival. Let me know what you think.

Thanks!

I think you're right on leaning towards Carnor. I'm guessing you're putting the shield upgrade on it other than Fel since the ability only works at range 1, which can get tricky. I'd still be tempted to go title and stealth device/shield upgrade on Fel because people will gun for him.

So you think Fel will get targeted before Jax, even with Jax playing the range 1 game?

My biggest concern is this list vs 360 arcs on large bases. Think it can compete?

Id like to see Carnor Jax paired with two other great ships to the fullest.

Having hard time deciding which two.

I believe Dengar and Tel bids two points. I wonder if a list with nines should bid three:

Carnor Jax (26)
Push the Limit (3)
Autothrusters (2)
Royal Guard TIE (0)

Soontir Fel (27)
Push the Limit (3)
Autothrusters (2)
Targeting Computer (2)
Royal Guard TIE (0)

"Backdraft" (27)
Veteran Instincts (1)
Fire-Control System (2)
Lightweight Frame (2)
Special Ops Training (0)

Total: 97

Anything can compete as long as you're comfortable flying it. When it comes to Fel, I think you need a TON of practice before you get good with him. A buddy I play with has nearly 100 games with him, and he's gotten so good at knowing when to strike and when to duck and cover.

Depending on the lists you face, I would anticipate people gunning for Fel, but they may also try to take out the rest of your list and gang up on him.

I think I would prefer this list. Carnor needs PTL for actions. Either to get into range one, or for tokens to not die immediately. I would consider going to 99 points and adding targeting computer on Carnor as well.
