Hi folks,

Put this fleet together centered around setting up the battlefield the way I want (Interdictor), Vader and Jonus flank the Imp Star while bypassing defensive tokens, the shuttle places victory tokens closer to my ships while Howlrunner and Mithel play. Not quite sold on including the flotilla but that's what I have in here at the moment.

Thoughts? Any help would be appreciated!

Faction: Galactic Empire
Points: 400/400

Commander: Moff Jerjerrod

Assault Objective: Precision Strike
Defense Objective: Fire Lanes
Navigation Objective: Intel Sweep

Gozanti-class Assault Carriers (28 points)
- Comms Net ( 2 points)
= 30 total ship cost

[ flagship ] Imperial II-Class Star Destroyer (120 points)
- Moff Jerjerrod ( 23 points)
- Relentless ( 3 points)
- The Grand Inquisitor ( 4 points)
- Gunnery Team ( 7 points)
- Electronic Countermeasures ( 7 points)
- Quad Turbolaser Cannons ( 10 points)
= 174 total ship cost

Interdictor-class Suppression Refit (90 points)
- Captain Needa ( 2 points)
- Medical Team ( 1 points)
- Grav Shift Reroute ( 2 points)
- G7-X Grav Well Projector ( 2 points)
= 97 total ship cost

1 Captain Jonus ( 16 points)
1 Darth Vader ( 21 points)
1 "Howlrunner" ( 16 points)
2 TIE Fighter Squadrons ( 16 points)
1 Lambda-class Shuttle ( 15 points)
1 "Mauler" Mithel ( 15 points)

If the enemy take ECM (like you have) then Jonus and the QTCs aren't that hot. XI7s and leading shots may do better all round.

Howlrunner is only benefiting 3 swarms, Vader is expensive and Mauler can get locked down with no Intel. So replace Vader with Zertek and Howlrunner for Dengar would be my solution. Zertek is just as survivable as Vader and the extra counter and Mauler ramming 2-4 times per game will more than compensate for the drop in firepower.

I also think precision strike could backfire against some bomber fleets. Most wanted would be a better bet.

...and this is why I post on this forum. Thanks @Mad Cat, always looking out. I will take this into consideration and adjust a bit.
