I've been playing around with this Raddus build this week. It's been interesting.
Raddus Turducken
Author: stonestokes
Faction: Rebel Alliance
Points: 394/400
Commander: Admiral Raddus
Assault Objective: Station Assault
Defense Objective: Contested Outpost
Navigation Objective: Dangerous Territory
MC75 Armored Cruiser (104 points)
- Profundity ( 7 points)
- Rapid Launch Bays ( 6 points)
- Electronic Countermeasures ( 7 points)
- Leading Shots ( 4 points)
- External Racks ( 3 points)
= 131 total ship cost
GR-75 Medium Transports (18 points)
- Bright Hope ( 2 points)
- Toryn Farr ( 7 points)
- Rapid Launch Bays ( 6 points)
- Bomber Command Center ( 8 points)
= 41 total ship cost
[ flagship ] Nebulon-B Escort Frigate (57 points)
- Admiral Raddus ( 26 points)
- Yavaris ( 5 points)
- Raymus Antilles ( 7 points)
= 95 total ship cost
4 B-Wing Squadrons ( 56 points)
1 Jan Ors ( 19 points)
4 X-Wing Squadrons ( 52 points)
I stuff Profundity full of Bees and Jan Ors, putting the other Bees on Bright Hope, and putting Bright Hope into the belly of Profundity as well.
Then, after deploying Profundity and Bright Hope, I will activate Bright Hope first, dropping 2 Bees but activating 2 X-Wings. Then when Profundity activates, it can drop the other 2 Bees and Jan Ors, activating one of the Bees and the last 2 X-Wings. Then Yavaris activates and double-taps with the remaining 3 Bees. That is a total of 7 blue-black attacks from B-Wings, supported with Toryn Farr and BCC.
The Profundity could really use Lando or Wallex, but I'm hesitant to reduce my bid. First player is just so much better for this build. I might drop ExRax for Lando. That would put me at 395.
Thoughts?
