Three ships at the same Init, all getting double calculate on calculate actions, evade on boost, and passing calculations around freely. Iggy A and C charge in, while Iggy D(ace) acts as a support ship, either calculating and passing tokens or directly coordinating a double calculate, targetlock, or boost on a fellow bot.

There's enough points left, barely, for a seismic to make Han or a tie swarm regret chasing down Dace, but depending on your loccal meta a bid may be more important. Dont forget to make roadrunner noises when a HWK arcdodges with boost.

Are you adamant on dace and the ini? My buddy Palob is only 2 points more...

Like the suggestion on the "meep meep"

I built a 1.0 list like this once. The list was called hawk-bots. It died horribly, but 1.0 was very different. And I love this list very much.

Do you think you'd get more value is you took off FCS, and bumped up to Palob? You'd have 4 points to do trick shot or crack shot on the bros, and have a 2 point bid or do something else. Or you could Mux it up.

If you strip Squad Leader and FCS you can put Ion Cannons on both bots to take advantage of Dace's ability. I'd probably trade Charlie for Bravo in that case.

Otherwise Mux is the same cost as Dace and his ability is still pretty good.

I've only ran this list once so far, but being able to squad leader either before of after the igs move was huge.
