Phantom at range 1-3 for action assigns a Kylo Token. Vader can Crit him either harpoons with a TL/F, or standard attack. You could Blind Pilot a PS 10 to not attack, move nym to a PS 0 or other options on first round. Colzet has to be watched because he can shoot that same person get a target lock and while he never has to hit, he can keep flipping that blinded pilot.

My only thought is to possibly give Vader Engine Upgrade, but where this list counts more from the start I think the Harpoons are a more viable option. Thoughts? Anyone flown something like this?

While Vader's harpoons are nice, I think you'd find a lot more value from EU in the long run. Overall, it seems like a very potent list.

I don't get why harpoon misiles

I think they're trying to double-down the effect of landing a crit if it's also the ship you have assigned ISYTDS to.

I can't read the title of this thread without imagining Kylo Ren threatening to drop his trousers and show his bare butt to the Resistance....

Thats no moon....

which reminded me of my favorite Spaceballs quote "She's gone from suck to blow"
