Okay, so having just created a topic on why Thrawn might not be all that great, and having heard several interesting and thoughtful arguments to the contrary, I’m going to try making a Thrawn list now. The list draws on a few different points: @scipio83 ‘s point about regeneration, @Karneck ‘s point on the Interdictor’s potential gains, and especially @Maturin ’s point about Thrawn’s versatility in many matchups. Between BTAvenger and the Interdictor, first and second both seem appealing. The overall game plan is simple: keep Avenger alive with up to 3 Thrawn repair dials, gozanti tokens, ECM and TS. Earn points through aggression or objectives. A major part of the idea I’m going for is to make sure any of Thrawn’s command choices could have a major impact, to maximize his benefits. Thoughts?
