Going to a store kit tourney sat and i e enjoy running imps a bit here lately. I waa meaaing around and found a way to get 9 activations including a atst and veers. I want to keep enough troop unit to capture most objectives and still not fall eccessivly vehind a rebel troop spam list. Bikes help take fire away from troop units and atst while hopefully creating a disturbance for my oppenent in the backfield.

I know the popular rebel liat in my area is 4 z6 units and 2 shottys with a few atrt or luke leia and a single chicken. I have a trusty repwl spam list loaded but rather play some of my unloved units.

I personally recommend either dropping General Weiss or grabbing the grenade launcher, because his 10 points is spendy to shoot off one extra weapon with exhaust. If you drop him and your mortar launcher, you can afford another DLT. I personally like the mortar launcher, but it's effect is reduced when facing Leia and her inspire 2.

Also, in my experience I've found that Veers gets focused down pretty easily without Esteemed Leader, even in cover. Sure, you can keep him out of LoS, but that often means he's behind and out of the fight. He needs to be close to pass out those sweet, sweet aims, and that often means he's visible by enemy units.
