Leia CC Build

By erikwm, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Hey- We're starting a CC campaign, and I drew the Rebels. I was thinking of doing a Leia build, since she works pretty well w/o a lot of upgrades, and it's easy to slot in a corvette (or two)/some upgrades in the future as you get points, and everything is pretty cheap to replace. I'm debating between the two options below- any thoughts? They are similar, but run differently depending on what I include. First one is more of a damage yourself to blow up fighters/more activations, second is more of a standard (with only 1 upgrade) Rebel staple of killing things dead with Wedge.

Option 1- Flakking Away with Y-Wings

Name: Untitled Fleet
Faction: Rebel
Commander: Leia Organa

Assault: Most Wanted
Defense: Capture the VIP
Navigation: Superior Positions

CR90 Corvette A (44)
• Leia Organa (38)
• Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7)
= 89 Points

CR90 Corvette A (44)
• Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7)
= 51 Points

CR90 Corvette A (44)
• Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7)
= 51 Points

GR-75 Medium Transports (18)
• Quantum Storm (1)
= 19 Points

Hammerhead Scout Corvette (41)
• Ruthless Strategists (4)
= 45 Points

Hammerhead Scout Corvette (41)
• Ruthless Strategists (4)
= 45 Points

Squadrons:
• Wedge Antilles (19)
• 6 x Y-wing Squadron (60)
• Jan Ors (19)
= 98 Points

Total Points: 398

Option 2- The Good Ole Double Tap

Name: Untitled Fleet
Faction: Rebel
Commander: Leia Organa

Assault: Most Wanted
Defense: Capture the VIP
Navigation: Superior Positions

CR90 Corvette A (44)
• Leia Organa (38)
• Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7)
= 89 Points

CR90 Corvette A (44)
• Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7)
= 51 Points

CR90 Corvette A (44)
• Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7)
= 51 Points

GR-75 Medium Transports (18)
• Boosted Comms (4)
= 22 Points

Nebulon-B Escort Frigate (57)
• Yavaris (5)
= 62 Points

Squadrons:
• Jan Ors (19)
• Wedge Antilles (19)
• 5 x Y-wing Squadron (50)
• Dutch Vander (16)
• Luke Skywalker (20)
= 124 Points

Total Points: 399

Both look pretty darn fine. Maybe it’ll depend if your teammates need Luke or Dutch?

List 1 is pretty solid especially since you will prob play against Sloane. I would put in Cham for one of the Ruthless Strategists as you will be able to kill Imperial Squads with 1. I would change a Y-wing for an X-wing. (drop quantum?) It seems like fun!

For both of these- My teammate (we're doing 2 v 2) is going in with an initial squadronless Raddus build and is looking to slot in 4 YT-2600's as his fire and forget fighter coverage as he gets points. Has a fleet centered around dropping in a Mon Karren LMC behind the enemy fleet and ripping them to shreds.

I like dropping in Cham. That's a solid idea as well. Thank you!
