OK, so been thinking about Leia. It seems to me that Contrate Fire commands really cash in on her ability. So, for your consideration, criticism, and possible ridicule, I offer my humble take on this idea. Basically, everyone spams Conentrate Fire commands except for the transport, which is really there for activation, and also to combine Toryn Farr and Jamming Field (a personal favorite of mine) near the A-Wings.

Concentrate, Leia

Oh for frak's sake, edited. Yes, that should have been Salvation from the beginning. Thank you for not wording it in a way to make me feel stupid, I do that on my own enough lol

If you are cashing in on concentrate Leia, why do you have dice modifiers on your ships??

Because red dice

I think the MC80 with a Nav. Team is actually a great use for Leia. It lets you jump speeds 1-3 and back like Ozzel if you want, or change speed and gain 2 clicks like Madine. It is not as outright fast an an ET Liberty but it turns way better since you don't have Madine.

I don't like Hammerheads as they are pretty crappy little ships, if you have the models, TRC 90's are just flat out better for the points investment you make into them, plus they can get more use out of that nice "ozzel effecct," when you Nav. Dial.

Small ships with short range guns and no brace are worse than Raiders...

I like Hammerheads, they're just not easy to use. You need them to start their turn at red range and end their turn near your black, that's the best way I see of using them. They're good ships, Bront.

This list looks fun! I may to give it a spin. Been looking for something new and fairly squadron-light after running a Sato list in my Corellian campaign. Never done Leia either!

I also love Hammerheads, but I agree that they are hard to use correctly. I lost quite a few during the campaign due to bad planning.

I just have a hard time justifying them. TRC 90 is 51 points. A Hammerhead Scout with any kind of dice manipulation or firepower booster via Slave Trts, DTT, Spinal, TRC, will run you between 46 and 50 points. For between 1 to 5 points you can have speed 4 with a much better nav chart at higher speeds and an additional (harder to lock down) Evade. To me it is not even a close comparison, unless you are using task forces to great effect I fail to see the point. To me TRC is better than any reroll because if insures a positive result.

TRC 90 under Leia vs Hammerhead under Leia, I take the TRC 90 every time. Under Ackbar... we don't even need to have this conversation right?

To me, the advantage a Hammerhead has over the CR90 is the Off. Retrofit slot and if you are taking them, you need to be using them to justify NOT taking a TRC 90. Which makes both ships about the same cost.

I feel like the only Hammerheads worth considering (in light of their comparison to TRC 90's) is the black dice torpedo corvette, which has its uses, but is still a Econo Raider with no brace. (we see so many high level fleets with Raiders these days).

Raddus and or Profundity will be the ones that make Hammerheads, specially Garrels Honor, good, as they should based on the movie...

One idea that I have not explored built around the Off. Retrofit Slot idea in the face of Gallent Haven and Sloana Aces is a firing line of Scout Corvettes with Toryn Far and Ruthless Stratigist. 4 Hammerheads with TF Antillies to blunt a bomber assault, paired with RS may be pretty devastating. The problem is that you still have to be able to fight other ships too, and you need some meaty squadrons (probably Y-Wings) you don't mind getting chewed up really bad.
