I kinda like it !

That VCX build needs some Zeb on it.

Looks fun! I love thematic builds like this

I absolutely LOVE IT! So thematic.

Things like this are why I like this game. I haven't read many of the books and was never a video game guy, so a lot of the ships and pilots from that media don't really interest me. Stuff that was on the big and small screen? Now we're cooking with gas. I just hope we can show up with thematic lists like that and not get blasted/laughed right off the table.

Docking with the Ghost.

It seems to me that the article implies that an Attack Shuttle (or Sheathipede) without the Phantom title can still dock with the Ghost but only at range 0.

I seems to me that you could field one of each (only one with title) and dock either of them as necessity dictates.

Am I right?

Freedom!!

I noticed this today as well. Only the VCX-100 has to have the Ghost title to enable docking. You could have multiple attack shuttles or sheathipedes and any of them could dock, I think (but only at range 0).

This is a 201 point list.

I like how they ignore that the Ghost peg doesn't work with a turret arc indicator and even have a photo of a Ghost without one ?

Today. Always changing, the 2e point costs are.

Yeah ive been wondering about that... epic ships will have the same problem. 2.0 is so rushed its nuts to think it isnt going to have issues

I'm hoping Alex didn't use the Squad Builder app for this squadron (201 points). The app is supposed to prevent building illegal squads like this.

does it legal to

1) fire primary

2) fire turret with Ezzra

3) fire back with docked shattle

?

in same turn\engagement

Only one bonus attack per turn

But you'll very rarely, if EVER, have shots in both your primary and auxiliary arcs

It's why vet tail gunner kinda sucks

Brleing able to double tap out of front or aux is pretty spiffy, though

Maybe it's legal on the list builder they are using internally.

Or they meant to put Zeb in there instead of CHop

Or this is just similar to quick builds.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Or FFG has no idea what they're doing when they write articles.

Sometimes I wonder if they do it on purpose since there's usually only one mistake (at least in the ones I currently remember).

Squad List subforum: 1....

FFG Article: nil.

The list is now at 199 points

"The Spectres" (199)

Can't wait to see the Empire and Scum list !
