Colonel Vessery (34) - TIE Defender
Crack Shot (1), TIE/x7 (-2)

Countess Ryad (33) - TIE Defender
Crack Shot (1), TIE/x7 (-2)

"Backdraft" (32) - TIE/SF Fighter
Veteran Instincts (1), Fire Control System (2), Special Ops Training (0), Lightweight Frame (2)

EPT selection is my only concern really. Thoughts?

If it was me I would drop the crackshots and put expertise on backdraft .

Backdraft doesn't need to shoot first in combat, he just needs to shoot before Vessery. You could drop VI to a freebie like Trick Shot or Adaptability and use the remaining 2 points to change Crack Shot to Juke on both Defenders.

Juke on a tie/x7 is always fun.

Juke does nothing versus Dengar that has overclocked and Mindlink which is gonna be the new powerhouse since you can fit Inaldra and Fenn with Mindlink in that list.

VI at least helps if I win the roll and for simultaneous fire.

Normally I would criticize someone for being that concerned about 1 possible matchup. That was before the Jumpmaster.

All hail our Jump Masters. All hail King Emperor Dengar.

Vi backdraft hits a massive advantage over

Dash

Norra

Rey

Miranda

Terry

Rau in asajj attanis or rau scouts, thanks to bid

Also ties with dengar, tel and other sfs

It is a great investment for a ship that can arcdodge like a boss

Plus shooting first when you autocrit can be massive

List is fine, happy hunting!

EDIT: also found Juke lost a lot of mileage with the x7 errata and the sudden saturation of ps > 6; crack has not
