I only have 1 Punisher, but if I had four:

Could substitute an Ion for DBM if desired.

I have 3, and I’m definitely looking for a good way to use em, so thank you. Now I just need DBM & Fuses to be in something other than just the Hyena...

5 Jakku Gunrunners with Deadmans Switch and assorted bombs would be my choice. The combination of tractor tokens and bonus ways of inflicting damage can really mess with your opponents strategy. Sometimes you even win a game.

Might be fun to try out four Supernatural/FCS Inquisitors. There's even room to fit in 2 concs and 2 ions.

5A , 5 Strikers , 5 Interceptors , 4 Gunboats , 4 T70s . All fun lists. Of course you don't have to spam them, but they all work quite nicely.

Don't wanna be a jerk, just saying that there's only 2 arc you really need to dodge, and even dodging one means a really big drop in firepower.

4 e-wings now.... that could be something intimidating!

In an all-generic world, those i4 Rogues might as well be i6s, so best of luck to you in your efforts to arc dodge them. 😉

In that case, I’ll take 4 Sabers with a 40 pt bid.

Or make it 4 Predator Sabers with a 32 point bid or 4 Outmaneuver Sabers with a 16 pt bid.

Bidding 40 is probably hilarious overkill, especially at first when you've got the ambush factor over everyone else. Could easily take a blocking Academy and Pred for all and sit at 191, then start cutting EPTs as needed.

I realized that and edited it in. You do want to bid against knaves, FOTP silencers, Black T-70s, and the dreaded triple-sigma.

VERY curious what such a meta would look like...

4x Storm Squadron with elusive, cluster missiles and fire control system

5x Tempest Squadron with fire control system

4x Inquisitor with proton rockets, supernatural reflexes

FIVE. C–

–avern angels zealots?

Up S-Foils to 1 point and I see no issue with CAZs dropping to 40. You can stuff your sub 41pt X-Wings otherwise...

Agreed exactly.

Without foils they're probably worth about 2 points more than a cartel marauder (1 less initiative but 1-straight and shield for hull).

For the record, 5x DMS Cartel Marauder is crazy hard to ace against. Aces hate high hull, lots of 3-dice arcs, and AOE, and this list packs tons of all three. Even when you win you often lose and have to go to a dreadfully hopeless salvo.

Gunboats.

I'm under moral obligation to write 5x Black Sq. Scouts w/ Predator, even though @GreenDragoon beat me to it with "5 TIE strikers."

I also hear 5x Planetary Sentinel w/ Afterburners is a hoot, and I still need to try 5x Planetary Sentinels w/ Proximity Mines. I have my work cut out for me.

Oh, bonus: 4x Planetary Sentinel and a Scarif Base Pilot, all 5 ships with Hull Upgrade.

This looks fun...
