Traditional Vessery & Ryad with Scariff Base Pilot carrying Krennic. Assign Optimized Prototype to Ryad, Ryad can now spend a focus/blank result with OP and TL the rest, saving tokens for defense. ISB Slicer is nice synergy with Juke Vessery and can extend the range out a little on the Jam Action. If the action is Range 1-2, can hit someone at Range 2 then give a Jam token to someone at R1 of that ship.

Here's my issue. As we know from Rebels season 4, Director Krennic's Stardust initiative was placed in direct competition with Grand Admiral Thrawn's TIE Defender project. So why would Krennic be using... frankly... his rival's "achievement" of the TIE Defender?

But perhaps that makes it work better. Krennic is getting huffy about not getting the credit he deserves for someone else's work.

List mostly looks fine on paper. I'm worried a bit about the geometry. I guess an Aierons move into a 1-speed move isn't that far from a 3-speed move on a Defender, but the way that the ship you probably want somewhat in the back kind of comes in faster than the others.

I kind of want Lightweight Frame on the SBP. Perhaps ISB Slicer gets cut (seems like a "try both and see" sort of thing). Perhaps it'd make sense to trim Countess to just Juke/x7. Hrm. I don't really like that.

All the more reason to shout, “My achievement, not yours!” every time Ryad benefits from Optimized Prototype!

Yeah, LWF and SBP points are wait and see for the most part. However, word is Wave is delayed until 2.0, so May never get to try it.

My only thought would be to ditch the slicer and get LWF. I'd rather live longer than mess with tokens, which are absent all to often these days.
