Any Devestator lists working these days?

By Deadshane, in Star Wars: Armada

I got Devs guns up to +3 dice btw. Broba helped me out with that of course.

A question came up early game. If you get shot at, full shields, with a crit result that does not penetrate shields, can you exhaust/spend contain?

I also learned, with the above list, how important it is to block Dev's flanks when up against Demolisher.

I thought I had maneuvered perfectly. Demolisher was still able to dodge my kill shot on him. **** ET.

Yes. There's no requirement that your defense tokens actually do anything when you spend them. Similarly, if you put Needa on there you could spend the evade at close range--it just wouldn't do anything for you.

DV could be your man then. You could always trim Comms net if you want some more bid back.

It's very weird for me to be offering advice on an Imperial build! :D

Edit: I've just looked again at DV squadron. It looks like his ability also applies Vs ships (unless it's an errata I didn't pay attention to). That makes him an amazing bomber substitute, if so. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Darth is an amazing "bomber", or would be if he wasnt already dead by then due to escort.
