Mhhh how about this:

• Onyx Squadron ace (76)
• Darth Vader w/afterburners (71)
• Soontir Fel (52)

199/200

Loosing some upgrades (predator on Soontir, FCS on Vader and Def) to up the Def to I4)...

For sure

You can fit Soontir with Predator, Rexler with Juke and FCS, and Maarek with Marksmanship, FCS, and AB with 2 points to spare. Feels much more competitive with 3 aces than 2 aces and a generic defender. Especially with all that Crit cruelty

But it means loosing Vader...

Still, it might be worth it if it makes target priority harder for my oponent...

Should I call it Crimson Crit Conclave?

If I push the Crit theme more, shouldnt I put Marksmanship on Soontir too?

Nah, Predator is a lot better on Soontir

I've updated my "Crimson Crit Conclave" Imperial squad to the new points:

Crimson Crit Conclave (195)

Maarek Stele — TIE Advanced x1 46
Marksmanship 1
Fire-Control System 2
Afterburners 6
Ship Total: 55
Half Points: 28 Threshold: 3

Soontir Fel — TIE Interceptor 53
Marksmanship 1
Ship Total: 54
Half Points: 27 Threshold: 2

Rexler Brath — TIE/D Defender 81
Marksmanship 1
Fire-Control System 2
Autoblasters 2
Ship Total: 86
Half Points: 43 Threshold: 4

5 pt bid... or 4 if I switch to Predator on Soontir. He will be shooting first so perhaps is more important to having him clearing shields... even if it deviates from the "crit dealing" theme.

Ideas? Suggestions?
