My guess is......................................................................everything :D

let me be clear, wave 11 is my first new wave. so I have no experience with TLT or Y-wing for that fact. So if my plan is bananas, please let me know and how to actually

accomplish my goal.

with this build the plan is to simply circle the map while keeping my distance as much as possible.

with Nym, and his TLT's, I'll have rerolls with my FCS and because it's a secondary weapon, I can deny them their range bonus(same with the Y-wings).

Whenever they manage to close the gap and hopefully it's against nym, I'll just start throwing out bombs as much as possible while utilizing my talon rolls to keep them at least

ahead of me if they are range one. Nym will generally be in the back so that I can drop bombs if they start chasing us and not worry about hurting my own Y-wings.

With Kavil, I should for the most part be throwing out 4 dice TLT's and depend on what I do and what my opponent does, I can throw 5 dice TLT's through obstructions.

effectively almost guaranteeing 2 hits per turn. Hopefully by the time my Syndicate Thug shoots, it'll be against unmodified defense dice.

That's a pretty tanky list, man! I wouldn't want to fly against it.

Might drop Kavil to have both of my Ys at the same PS. Maybe throw VT on them to control range better.

Kavil with trick shot and TLT is good keep it, get obstructed shot out of his ark and throw 5 dice twice. ?

Haha, oh god, trick shot TLT is one of those things that seems pure evil.

Edit: Oh, oh jeez. 5-dice per shot. That's despicable, and I can't see that ever failing to hit if you just have a focus.

what do you all recommend for rock/debris types and their placement?

I personally am thinking 3 large asteroid rocks and place them in the middle in a line(from left to the right)

if this doesn't well Thursday, I'll try your advice to see how it goes. your idea gives me a 4 point bid, any thoughts as to what I can add to the build?

or should I just keep it for the bid?

I'd drop Kavil to a syndicate, then add clusters and EM to one of them, or torps if you don't want bombs on the y's.
