REBS400 - Raddus Rampage

By Ritalbringer, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Hey guys,

Here is a try of Mr Raddus and a couple of W7’s novelties.

What’s your opinion?


Commander: Admiral Raddus

Assault: Advanced Gunnery
Defense: Jamming Barrier
Navigation: Solar Corona

MC80 Assault Cruiser (114)
• Admiral Raddus (26)
• Bail Organa (7)
• Engine Techs (8)
• Electronic Countermeasures (7)
• Early Warning System (7)
• Leading Shots (4)
• Heavy Turbolaser Turrets (6)
• Defiance (5)
= 184 Points

MC75 Ordnance Cruiser (100)
• Ordnance Experts (4)
• Electronic Countermeasures (7)
• Assault Proton Torpedoes (5)
• External Racks (3)
• Profundity (7)
= 126 Points

Hammerhead Torpedo Corvette (36)
• Cham Syndulla (5)
• External Racks (3)
• Garel's Honor (4)
= 48 Points

Squadrons:
• 6 x Z-95 Headhunter Squadron (42)
= 42 Points

Total Points: 400

No comment must mean that this list is too good or too bad ?

Here’s some commentary. ?Dropping Defiance is probably smart. With three activations you won’t be likely to get amazing use out of it, and space is needed for more ships. Swapping the Z-95s for Tycho and Shara gives you a potentially more survivable screen, and due to the fact that you start with one ship on the table, the deployment loss doesn’t matter. On a similar note, I’d ditch Solar Corona; you have ECMs and deployment advantage isn’t terribly important. Dangerous Territory gives you safe jump zones, with Minefields being a slightly riskier method and Intel Sweep being a fun dare for your opponent. XI7s are generally better than HTT, as they work better with accuracies, they don’t give your opponent a choice, and redirects are nearly universal. For this list, though? Quad battery turrets. They trigger LS at long range and are great with ETs. Bail might be replaced with Lando (for BTAvenger) or Strategic Adviser (because three activations with no bid is asking for trouble.) Doing all of these changes saves exactly 18 points for a GR-75, boosting you to four or “five” activations. If you want Comms Net to trigger ETs and/or a bid, I consider Cham (because you’re Profundity-dropping him and can’t CF as a result) and Profundity (because Aspiration is better <_<) to be luxury goods. Good luck, hope this helps!
