•Colonel Vessery (40) - TIE Defender
Expertise (4), Tractor Beam (1), TIE/D (0)

please halp.

Omega Leader with Juke and Comm Relay. 26 points of default Imperial Ace action who also feeds Vessery another target lock to trigger that wonderful ability.

I think you could drop Extra Munitions and Seismic Torpedoes from the Cutlass & get 31 points which gives you some more options. That fits an Inquisitor (no ordnance) perfectly. Drop Expertise from Vessery and give him VI, then you can combo off Inquisitor's target lock and equip Inquisitor with Cruise Missiles. Fire with Vessery, then Inquisitor.

Omega Leader is a great fit and an awesome end-game budget ace.

You could shave some points off the Cutlass and get Ion Cannon on Vessery. Bomblet Generator, yes, but Unguided Rockets is great on a Punisher, as is LWF.

If you don't mind mixing First Order and Empire, you're always comparing any other choice to Omega Leader. He has problems given the reasonably high likelihood of engaging a Black One Poe Dameron at least once during a given game night, but he remains a great ship, and a great support for Vessery.

Alternatively, a TIE/v1 ace, maybe? Valen Rudor can be rather nice with a few cheap bits of kit (Autothrusters, Intensity, TIE/v1 title)
