Trying Rieekan for the First Time

By Admiral Theia, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Been posting a lot of lists lately, I know, but I'm searching for what my next long-term list will be. I've been playing Triple Cymoons through the Store Championships and now into Regionals. I want to switch it up.

I've never used Rieekan, not once in a game. He became popular early and I just sort of shied away from him. I've decided to give him a try, with some fighters, but in a slightly different way (no Yavaris for instance). So, here's my attempt. Where do you think this could be shored up?

Name: Untitled Fleet
Faction: Rebel
Commander: General Rieekan

Assault: Most Wanted
Defense: Hyperspace Assault
Navigation: Superior Positions

MC30c Torpedo Frigate (63)
• General Rieekan (30)
• Lando Carissian (4)
• Ordnance Experts (4)
• Advanced Projectors (6)
• Assault Concussion Missiles (7)
• Admonition (8)
= 122 Points

MC30c Torpedo Frigate (63)
• Ordnance Experts (4)
• Assault Concussion Missiles (7)
= 74 Points

Hammerhead Torpedo Corvette (36)
• External Racks (3)
• Garel's Honor (4)
= 43 Points

Hammerhead Torpedo Corvette (36)
• External Racks (3)
= 39 Points

GR-75 Combat Retrofits (24)
• Jamming Field (2)
• Bright Hope (2)
= 28 Points

Squadrons:
• Corran Horn (22)
• Ketsu Onyo (22)
• Shara Bey (17)
• Tycho Celchu (16)
• Rogue Squadron (14)
= 91 Points

Total Points: 397

If you think of it this way, RBD and ap both save you a potential 3 damage. I'd opt for RBD if you fi the def slot as getting rid of ram damage is important.

If you plan on using jamming you should find room for a hwk so you don't get caught in it too. Especially the a-wings lose a lot of punch if their counter is one.
