Part of the reason for that is Imperial listbuilding was boring, so I've been more or less shoehorned into Rebels if I want to make interesting fleets. All two of the competitive Imp options felt like obvious gimmicks to me (hmmmm, should I bring Demolisher, a Rhymerball, or something stupid and bad?). Nothing really inspired me when I sat down to make an Imp list.
W5 and 6 have really stepped up the Imperial options for me, and I'm excited about the options now. The Howlrunner alpha-strike game, for example, is something I've always loved playing--now, I can actually build a reasonably viable fleet around that with Sloane.
Now I just see it being.
"Should I bring Demolisher, Avenger/Boarding, or something stupid and bad... Oh wait, I'll take them both."
