Vader DOES NOT need HP. If not SR, then Hate, but still probably SR. And FCS. The others? Here, more TIES is better than better TIES

I know it is not the popular choice, but I also run Heightened Perception on Vader. Albeit in Hyperspace format.

This allows you to PS kill another i6, is that correct?

Yeah. So on the above than, im looking at this?

TIE/ln Fighter - Academy Pilot - 23
Academy Pilot - (23)

TIE/ln Fighter - Academy Pilot - 23
Academy Pilot - (23)

TIE/ln Fighter - Academy Pilot - 23
Academy Pilot - (23)

TIE/ln Fighter - Academy Pilot - 23
Academy Pilot - (23)

TIE/ln Fighter - Academy Pilot - 23
Academy Pilot - (23)

TIE Advanced x1 - •Darth Vader - 82
•Darth Vader - Black Leader (70)
Supernatural Reflexes (12)

Total: 197/200

That does look perdy. Tho Howlie would probably be worth one other TIE... I know it kinda sounds counter to what I earlier said, but here's my thought rn:

Vader (SR, FCS)

Howlie

3x Academies

Yes... Entirely counter 😂 it hurt taking her out the list so, certainly more comfortable with her in
