Was just doing some playing around with list building and i thought has there been anyone out there thats tried Emon, Cad and the Generator? Seems to me you could cover a large area with Emons ability. cads not as good as Sabine IMO, but rerolling bomb dice is always a plus.

Emon usually plays better with an action-bomb, if only so that he can do a hard-3 and then 'slingshot' the bomb forward onto the enemy.

Shhh...that was gonna be my post-nerf plan! ;-)

Scum Nym (99)

Captain Nym (46) - Scurrg H-6 Bomber
Veteran Instincts (1), Autoblaster Turret (2), Extra Munitions (2), Homing Missiles (5), Bomblet Generator (3), Havoc (0), Long-Range Scanners (0), Accuracy Corrector (3), "Genius" (0)

Emon Azzameen (53) - Firespray-31
Cluster Mines (4), Cad Bane (2), Homing Missiles (5), Glitterstim (2), Slave I (0), Guidance Chips (0), Seismic Charges (2), Extra Munitions (2)

I've been running Emon with Andrasta, Bomblet Generator, a Conner Net, and Dengar crew and it's been pretty successful and very fun to play.

I think without "Genius" bomblets are not so good and more predictable

After some thought, I think youre right. I think EDog is on the right track with his list though.

It's not just you.

Sabine:

• Works with every bomb, not just those that roll dice
• Deals damage automatically, no rolling
• Can hit ships other than the one that triggered the bomb (mine)

Oh, and:

• She costs the same as Cad Bane

**** Sabine.

Yes, bomblet on Nym with ab turret, genius, intensity. Adv sensors. Clusters, connor nets, extra munitions and cad bane on Eamon. Long range scanners on both. Very funny list.
