Thinking of an Oicunn with Daredevil and EU. Or run them both as attack ships.
Edited by Celestial LizardsDecimator-Upsilon lists
Theoretically, Ram, then Co-Ordinate/Daredevil Ram?
I'd still take Dauntless if you can - as that allows co-ordinate boost, manoeuvre ram, dauntless/daredevil ram.
I'm not sure what else I'd pack.
- You'd want Inspiring Recruit on Oicunn, for definite.
- Upping the upsilon to Stridan lets you be a bit more careless with formations.
- Pattern analyser lets stridan pull harder moves and still co-ordinate his wingman.
- The Upsilon probably wants fire control system to give it some attack modifiers when not using its action on itself.
- If you're fielding Stridan, Systems Officer is too good to pass up, I suspect.
- Gunner pairs well with Fire Control.
- Mara Jade supports Oicunn playing bowling ball - against a swarm she can mess up a lot of ships at once.
- For the last couple of points, if Stridan is following Oicunn in, Kylo Ren's Shuttle can help add more stress to the mess Mara Jade leaves.
- Captain Oicunn - Dauntless, Daredevil, Inspiring Recruit, Mara Jade, Engine Upgrade
- Major Stridan - Kylo Ren's Shuttle, Fire Control System, Gunner, Systems Officer, Pattern Analyser
Well I don't know if it's good or not, but I've got this on my 'to play' list...
- Kylo Ren - A Score To Settle, Advanced Sensors, Kylo Ren's Shuttle, Emperor Palpatine (47)
- Captain Oicunn - Daredevil, Intelligence Agent, Boshek, Rebel Captive, Ion Projector (53)
That has the Ion/Palp trap built in along with Boshek & Daredevil shenanigans. bwhat I'm actually playing at the moment is a very different Deci/Upsilon list...
- Major Stridan - Agent Kallus, Fire Control System, Pattern Analyser (38)
- Rear Admiral Chiraneau - Veteran Instincts, Kylo Ren, Gunner, Rebel Captive, Engine Upgrade (62)
Coordinate is huge in letting RAC boost & blind at will.
Kylo Oicunn is fun, as is RAC/Kylo, but neither are top tier competitive simply because the Shuttle is so lumbering and completely unable to turn round. You also have to build one or the other very much down to a price, which hurts.
It's a shame, because this feels like it should be the low-variance Imperial list I've been looking for for ages, but it just doesn't quite have the chops.

Maybe there's more to life?

Then what is?

I just said Kylo Oicunn is fun. I run it when I'm looking for a fun list, it's hilarious. Though typically I'd actually do Oicunn Deathrain instead, just because I find Deathrain more interesting.

A low-variance Imperial list? RAC or Oicunn/ace is probably the lowest variance you can get, at the moment. Imperials don't have a second low-variance ship for the right point value to pair with a big Deci and complement its weaknesses IMO. So you need to go for a higher variance ace. My current pick is Quickdraw.

Maybe. Maybe.
But what is best in life is clearly to crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women.

I tried making the Deci/Upsi combo work and unfortunately it doesnt for 1 simple reason. A decimator need a partner to finish the job once its down. Upsilon isnt a great finisher,
I played this once:
• Kylo Ren Veteran Instincts, Fire-Control System, Kylo Ren's Shuttle,Engine Upgrade
