Droids!

With 2nd edition it seems bro-bots is very capable of being a 3 ship list now, what do you think?

Here is the list in YASB otherwise it is listed below- https://raithos.github.io/?f=Scum and Villainy&d=v5!s!81:116,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,151:;83:116,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,151:;91:-1,36,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1:&sn=L3-37 IG-2000&obs=

IG-88A

-crack shot

-IG-2000 title

Total-73 points

IG-88C

-crack shot

-IG-2000 title

Total-73 points

Customized YT-1300 L3-37

-IG-88D crew

Total-51 points

List total-197

Any suggestions on how to improve this? I debated the HWK-290, but I was worried about its ability to use both IG’s abilities and thought a large base would spread tokens better as well as help block.

L3-37’s pilot ability seems synergistic with IG-88C’s wish to boost giving the falcon a much appreciated evade unless the red boost is an issue?

If the red boost does prevent it I suppose I could use the HWK.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Brobots only recieve an ability from ships with the ig2000 title, so your bros wont get abilitys from other types of ships.

Red boost > stress > cant do actions since you are stressed.

ig88 gives the calculateaction, so you can take any ship with a crewslot and share tokens.

Zuckus+ig88 = 51pts

the L337 pod + tactical officer is great in brobot lists :)

I know the brobots wont benefit from my 3rd ship, but my 3rd ship can use the pilot abilities of the brobots.

I was tempted by the Mist Hunter, but do you think a HWK with engine upgrade and title would be better?

The reason I was running the falcon was to try to get my opponent to shoot it before the bots, this makes me wary of the escape pod because it will probably be ignored.

I played something like this. Was fun, although the ships are quite naked. Pablo is so annoying when ignored and he has great options for fully modified shots.

Unfortunately the engine upgrade doesn't fit by one point, so I went for debris gambit to give Pablo that little bit of staying power when needed.

No problems I dont really get bothered by much.

Torkil was exactly the one i was debating vs the scum falcon, it would protect the list against a nasty ace, and the HWK is definitely one of the stronger ships in 2.0.

I was just worried about the hwk’s survivablity but if it gets an evade from the bot ability maybe?
