An attempt to build a filthy Rebel scum fleet

By Diabloelmo, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Hi all, I have long been a fairly solidly Imperial player, but I have decided to take the plunge and give the dirty Rebels a try, using ships I already own and think are cool. I've gone with a corvette wolfpack list lead by Leia, which just seems to be the natural fit for her ability. I'd have prefered to go with more CR90s over the Hammerheads, but I'll hold off on actually buying a swarm of the things until I know I will actually USE them!

So I'm not sure how you're planning on flying the fleet, but Rebels like speed and are often moving 2 or 3. I would think QBTs are more of an Imperial upgrade except for on the bigger slower Rebel ships. Most often I'd think you won't find a use for them and that something like DTTs or even TRCs would even out your dice more.

I think the list is fine. As per tactic: hammerheads+neb will slowly creep in the middle as an anvil, while corvettes sneak up on the flanks.

As a future reference if you like corvettes: try trc corvettes with cracken. He provides them with a lot of survivability they lack. The B version works well with mothma, or you can go crazy with rieekan ram list with them. Btw, ET is an expensive upgrade on them, yet its worth having on two, so you can ram flotillas to the death without wasting any shots on them.
