This list has been so fun to play with. The bus and Vynder dart around the board ionizing and chipping away while whisper lurks along the flank!

Any tweeks, or thoughts people have? Thanks in advance!

Have adv. protons been worth it?

I feel like that's 18 points on very limited amount of shots, and it's 1 only more die than ions at range 1. I think I'd rather have adv. SLAM on there to make them really hard to catch.

I haven’t struggled to fire them, and they punch very hard. Range one ion is nice but it’s been game changing to have that damage output.

its the "punch" that the ions set up.

In 2.0 you cannot do anything except focus after an ion move, in exchange for it clears stress.

Thus, regardless of who it is, they WILL be 1fwd from where they currently are. Therefore its stupid stupid easy to get APTs on them.
And Gunboats can reload the 1charge APT, making it even better.
