Inspired by a recent thread, I came up with this combo. Of course, it won't be any use until the Sheathipede comes out. Does this seem competitive?

Fenn Rau

Swarm Tactics

M9-G8

Weapon's Engineer

Pulsed Ray Shield

Dutch Vander

TLT

EM

Plasma Torps

GC

Targeting Astromech

Gold Squadron Pilot

TLT

EM

Plasma Torps

GC

R3-A2

Here's the idea:

Fenn locks the others, giving them mini-predator as long as he's around. They slow roll up into the first engagement, focusing. Once the opponent has moved, hopefully they will be within Range 2-3 and, when Fenn finally moves, he coordinates Dutch into a TL which gives the GSP a TL. Then they can fire their torps (one at Fenn's PS 9) with a focus token, GC, and mini-predator modifications. Next round, if possible, they do the same, but if need be, they pull 4Ks. Targeting astromech gives Dutch a TL which gives the GSP a TL, they fire the other torps modified by the GC and mini-predator. In subsequent rounds, the Ys do TLT things, all of which will be modified by the mini-predator as long as Fenn sticks around, and the GSP can do some stressbotting just to frustrate people.

I like the idea but I think it will need some table time to really see if it will work.

Is this for casual games or for a tournament?

I'm looking forward to the Sheath as well

@Greebwahn - I do think Rebel ordnance is viable, but I don't think that list is. It's not high enough PS, has too many dependent parts and only has 2 relatively fragile ordnance carriers. I feel an ordnance strike needs to be able do at least one of the following:

• Can reliably PS-nuke something off the board during the initial engagement before it fires
• Eat enough damage that it can reliably survive the initial engagement along with delivering its ordnance
