Predator on Fenn and Guri for an 8pt bid. Both those ships REALLY want to move last. I was just playing a game yesterday with Fenn against Vader and Soontir and had no bid and I basically could have just had a Zealot out there cause Fenn cant get range 1 on those guys.

Cloaking device is optional if you prefer to have some kind of a bid as I did find it underused in my games.

So true. I use Guri/Fenn/Lando and have a 7p bid. Used to have an 11p bid but decided to try Lando instead of L3-37. It's working really well

I wound up keeping Fearless on Fenn and replaced Outmaneuver on Guri with Predator for a 7 point bid. So far in the league I haven't seen too many 5 points or greater bids, so I have a decent shot at being able to get the initiative and set myself up to go second- allowing Guri to arc dodge. I figure on using Fenn and Talonbane together to joust the enemy's main hitters while Guri flanks/attacks lesser threats.

Well, somehow my Talonbane base insert flew away, so I'm waiting for a replacement. That means he's out as my third member in this squad for the game this week. After messing around with various stuff (Dalan in Kimogila, 4-LOM), and not having Lando's Falcon, I settled on this. I would like to have the title on Palob, but don't have the card so I decided to play around with him a little.

I like it a lot. I’d even drop the shield from palob and put outmaneuver on Guri. You even save 2p!

That's interesting. Now I have to think on that...

So I kept the original version of the second list (Fenn, Guri Palob list) and was glad I did- Guri never really got into a position where Outmaneuver would have triggered and got into Predator position quite a few times; the real savior was Shield Upgrade on Palob preventing a half damage result. 200-110, Guri destroyed and Fenn at half health after killing off Rexler, Scourge, and the Starwing pilot. Great game, pretty fun variant.
