Well not ALL. Half at a time. Raiders need time to chew.

I love raiders and I had never thought of that list design. I always think in terms of Raider maneuvering rather than trapping the enemy in quicksand.

For those interested in some more Raiders, they're $13.89 a piece on amazon right now, so I just bought 2 more :-)

Can you go through the bat rep in more detail? You say the flak was amazing, but you talk mostly about throwing ships into the raider nest. What actually happened? Did play skill create large discrepancies?

I mean let's be honest here, I can imagine that you're a decent enough player to win with nearly whatever. And its not impossible to mis-play even strong lists.

Does it make it much more difficult if the opponent commits to sending both into the trap, and alpha striking some Raiders down?

Blail why is this always ine way? Me constantly explaining how to fly, and you failing to learn. I dont get why I should keep bothering, its never seemed to have any effect as there are some questions you repeat every couple of months.

I dont see why I should bother.

Ha. How many times have I answered your questions?

I noticed the other day you have asked me if Salvation should take intel officer 4 times. Clearly I am having no effect.
