Hi,

I'm a newish player, have about 20 skirmish games to date and have a Tournement coming up. Managed to buy a lot of it already (Expansion boxes - but not Bespin, most of the imperial add ons and a small selection of rebel/scum add ons). I'm kind of sold on Imperial (as my other regular skirmish partners generally do Scum and Rebel scum). I've been playing mainly a core of

eJets x 2, Temp Alliance and eWeequay x 2, and rOfficer

I usually fill with rProbe droids, Targeting Computers for the Jets, Zillo sometimes, and the command deck is basically jammed with Hunter/trooper Take initiative + Negation of course.

I feel the rProbes are slowing me down now though, but were a great way of getting to the seemingly magical '7 activations' I'm hoping to get some more games in before the weekend to test any feedback I get about what units to put in instead.

I think i'd really like a Jets x 2 + Terro Squad, but struggling to get ideas atm cos everything seems to be Rebel/Scum competitively. I know I wont win much but don't wanna get creamed every game at my first tourney.

2x eJets is a must. I would drop eWeequays, because without focus they are not that scarry , and the empire lacks reliable focus (+ as You mentioned you clog your command deck with hunter cards). I would also add Terro and BT-1. Rule by fear is deffinetly a good pick and Zillo is a must. Also Targeting Computers are REALLY usefull for eJets.

I would advice double jets with TC, Terro, BT-1 Rule by fear, Zillo Technique. Fill however you like with heavies/dewbacks/regular jet troopers and officers.

Here is the list I am using ATM with some very nice results.

eJet + Targeting Computer 8

eJet + cross training 8

rJet + cross training 5

Terro 7

bt - 1 6

rOfficer 2

rOfficer 2

Zillo 1

Rule by Fear 1
