The VCXs are a better investment for the squadron fight than I expected. Those eight hull points let them stay in there for quite a while.

Now just switch Madine for Sato, you can hear him calling you....

It was a fun event. I'm more of the opinion to choose second player against a bunch of small annoying ships next time.

I have a Fleet Patrol on Wednesday. Someone post a janky listbuilding requirement and I will try to make it work.

Not to be THAT GUY, but are YOU ACKSHUALLY the drunken uncle raddus?

Game 1 (attack of the clones): "Corran, Shara, Tycho, Corran"

Game 2 (imperius curse from harry potter): "My thought was to force Demo out of position if it wanted a shot at Demo."

I await my special no-prize from taking away how good the article was by commenting on minor BS that doesn't take away from the game writeups.

Consider it done.

... I can't do both these wonderful ideas, but I will include Isard in your honor.

All mediums and squads for Imps?

I look at that and believe Thats a Potential Nose Punch... but Not even you are that insane ?

i mean, I am. That’s the point ?

Thank you for sharing the detailed field report for your "move fast and break things face" MSU list!

Do you mind commenting on your choice for your yellow objective? What do you feel are the tradeoffs between fire lanes and hyperspace assault?

It gives me the option of VSDs, Dics, and Quasars.

And gives me a really dumb idea to try.

Great stuff.

Maybe a short evaluation of you commander choice?

It's a list that might fit MM - or as Gink suggests, Sato

Great batrep, thanks for sharing. Glad to see Armada looking healthy with 14 players for a monthly game day!

I blame Biggs. I asked him to proofread

The list is has been explicitly tailored to Madine over many iterations. I have zero doubt it flies best with him. I've given thought to Cracken since I'm rarely below speed 3, but the extra notch (sometimes two when I cash in the token) combined with Engine Techs is just too much damned fun to fly. You can ask pretty much anyone that's flown against it: the maneuverability catches you off guard. What Cracken gains in obstruction, I typically achieve with arc dodging.

Also, what's a k turn? 2 clicks, 2 clicks, straight, click, or what?
