Works fine for me ;-) @X Wing Nut can verify

It is what you make of it.

At least a third of the games I've won were with a pulsetap fleet. It's Janky and hard to use against players who know how it works, but it hits hard . Enough so that a good PT will finish a game.

Wave 6 has made PT fleets even easier with the addition of QBTs and Dcaps....

Hammerheads. I really can't stand using them. I'd rather have a CR90, which happens to be more survivable.

Sato with a Liberty. Man did that ******* blow. I learned real quick Sato needs MSU style to be effective.

Interesting. Another time I feel opposite!

I had a lot of success with massed hammerheads (the secret may be having 6 of them due to payment for painting in lieu of cash)...

And I just can’t MSU Sato... it could be that outside of said Hammertime swarm, I just can’t MSU ?

My Sato lists are best voting around the large, robust carrier.

Again, I know I am often outliers, but it’s still interesting to see other thoughts and metas outside my own ?

I find the HH to be very squishy, on par with the Raider because they have to get into close/medium to do anything. I'd rather take a Raider over the HH, but I play them basically the same. I'm not really keen on the idea of losing a HH just so my others can get to attack, which is how a lot of swarmy fleets play.

I don't like the Liberty, but I do enjoy Defiance with Sato. Ironically it's supported by 2 APT HH because I am determined to get it to work. I'll be switching over to the MC75 with Sato because it naturally has black dice. So long as one of the versions has an Ordnance slot, I'll be in business.

I had difficulty with the Liberty because I found it wasn't really with the investment. You get a really strong glass cannon worth almost have your fleet. Mon Karren + GT + Sato is fun, but I always felt I was splitting my attacks when I should be focusing them.

Konstantine.

I want him to work so, so badly. Yet he refused to cooperate.

Mythics abuses scout hammerheads with Leia. They're supposed to do what nebulons do- front firepower- except for cheaper. They have a weapons team advantage over cr90s and titles to synergize with. While CR-90s Dodge and burn, Hammerheads crowd and fire. In the very least they are cheaper than CR90s with the same red dice.

I have found the Hammer Heads to be kinda cheap to kit out and highly cost efficient, combine them with Leia or Mon Mothma and they can be a pain especially in numbers.
