So this is my first wave 6 idea that doesn't involve an ISD avenger laughing as a swarm of sloane ties makes everything defenseless.


Pretty basic, quasar has an evasive deploy, trying to use it's speed 3 to skirt the edge of combat and activate the fighter swarm. The swarm itself should be fairly deadly, using howlrunner and dengar to give my Tie/Int aces counter 4, with scatter, and 6 blue for striking(with flight controllers)... not terrible, with sloane, it should even tear through aces pretty quick, the standard ties are reinforcements for when the Tie/Int start getting chewed up, holding a similar high damage output. Should the opponent be running a small screen that dies quickly, these fighters will me throwing their blues at ships for damage and defense token destruction. Behind the quasar the demo should run interference, if a ship comes through the swarm to attack the carrier, demo moves in and hits it hard. The kitten, who holds the commander is also skirting at long range, applying it's attacks after the quasar/demo have softened whatever's in the frey to try to ensure it's small damage is unopposed. Lastly the flotilla, will likely run as activation support since the fleet is on the low end at 4, but can also join in to activate ties if necessary.


That's my thoughts anyways, I welcome yours

Keeping sloane alive on a non Jerjerrod Arquitens may be challenging.

The mix of squadrons is great. It will be a terror when boosted by Howlie and Dengar.

Well the hope is with the swarm, quasar, and demo to eat through first, sloane should be last on the menu... at long range, and speed 3 I feel like any shots targeting her aren't targeting demo or the quasar, which almost feels better.. lol almost

Good point. Giving your opponent "Bad Choices" (to name one of your old lists) is what it's all about!

Have you tried this out yet? This list is what I have been trying to create, 4+ activation, Light carrier, Sloane, only 1 flotilla (all I own atm), if there was a way to get an ISD in the list it would be my dream build. My problem is that I play like a bull in a china shop, jump in and start blasting away, preferably at close range with Screed, I need to learn some refinement, play the gentleman's game more gentlemanly.

I haven't tried it yet, but it's on the list. I'll tag you if I ever get the chance to play it lol

I too am curious about how this list fairs against Rebels and Imperials alike. Tag me too if you wouldn't mind
