Hey All, has anyone tried an instigator titled raider with tua cluster bombs?

Instagator has always been good at locking down some squads. But, has had the problem of then getting shot by said squads and dying.

Are the 7 pts too much of an investment to potentially put the hurt on an attacking squad?

Not tried but for two more points I would try with EWS. At least that way the problem of getting shot by those squadrons is solved.

Now all you need is to keep it safe from ships.

Yeah, but it is very easy to hit other hull zones on small base ships. I've found it ineffective.

Keep in mind that the front hull zone is generous and line of sight from squadrons is traced from the closest point TO THE SHIP, not the center of the base.

Also Ciena Ree + Instigator is a classic one (a bit more expensive though)

However, try cluster bombs and tell us how it goes.

Really? I always went from center. Good to know. I'll have to experiment.

There is a vassal example somewhere. It is a little difference but noticeable.
