Chiraneau and Colzet be trolling.

Main idea is pick one enemy ship(say Dengar in a Dengar+Nym list), slap ISYTDS Blinded Pilot on it, and then have Colzet follow it around flipping it over and over again while Chiraneau and Scourge take out what else is in the list before finishing off the poor initial victim.

One possible change is to change the ATC into Fire Control System and use the point elsewhere. It would limit Colzets offensive output but give me a way to get the target lock out there and have my action to focus for defense.

Very trolly. Haha. Would be devastating against a two-ship list to keep giving one of them blinded pilot.

The benefit you have is that you could do that , and then have colzet follow, but the next turn you could do the same thing to the other ship, while Colzet keeps flipping. Ideally you could have a continuously flipping blinded pilot, with Chir moving to another target. especially with his 360 arc. I love it. I'd make a few adjustments though.

Colzet, I'd put FCS on him. you attack the blinded pilot, and hit or miss you get a new TL to discard to flip, rather than the ATC's. where Colzet attacks near the last, he'd always gain one to discard to flip incase said target had a way to shed them. It reduces attack, but ensures more continual flippage.

Col Jendon on the Lambda, with the ST-321 title allows him to target lock anywhere on board, put Colzet at range 1 of Jendon, and Jendon can pass him the TL, and no matter where the ship goes, as long as Jendon can lock him(anywhere on the board) You can put Kylo on the Lambda with a mangler, to get the Crit in, still leaves you plenty of room for some other fun stuff too.

Well the two games I've had with it have been pretty devastating. It's such a trolly combination. Scourge is also a bit of a sleeper, he really synergizes with Kylo.

Yeah, I tried to make a list like that.

Point on the FCS vs the ATC. I'm really on the fence between them. The FCS does let me do a K-turn and still get a target lock, but it cuts my end game damage output.

How about this?

Vessery and Jendon have the same PS, so Vessery can tractor beam to make someone -1 agil (preferably someone TL'd). Then attack him again with Vessery's primary using the TL again that should be all you need to get a Crit through, but if that doesn't work, you have a Mangler that could push the Crit. at that point you can choose to let Colzet follow, or fly Colzet around Jendon and have Jendon feed his TL. Jendon can push another Kylo to someone else. Everytime Jendon attacks with the FCS he gets to reset 2 target locks, (1 for use, and one for Colzet) and Vessery attacks first so that he benefit's off of other people's TL's, reduces their agility, and then hits himself. Ideally you could have a Blind pilot and 1 other Pilot crit take effect EVERY turn... Ideally.
obviously there are pro's cons, but pro's wise, the Tractor beam can screw around with your bomb throwers, two routes with colzet prevents a 1 ship lost, with cons being limited movement of the lambda.
another option could be swarm them with three ties instead of Vessery to get in the way and minimize their extra actions to ensure you have enough time to start your, with them 1 ship down, swarms could be very effective especially if you decide to throw extra TL's with Jendon, once Colvet gets in position to follow and troll.

I don't like the flechette cannon. I'd find 2 points to boost it to a Mangler so that you dish the Crit. Vader with his crit is a nice bit there too.
