Hi! Am looking for a way to integrate my two fan favourites here. But, how? And, why?

How: what combination of SSD type, upgrades and Thrawn dials could actually add value?

Why: would you choose any of these over Piett or officer slot uses instead?

All advice welcome please!

I would only use Thrawn over Piett if you have other ships with your SSD. So minimal upgrades or larger than 400 point game.

Take Assault Prototype if you want to nuke something.

Krennic
Intel Officer
QBT
Leading Shots
XI7
Ravager
SW-7 or HIE depends on your taste.

Dial in ConFire on SSD
Nav or Repair on Thrawn

bring 2 flotillas with repair crews if you can

Thanks CV!

I tried a variant of this just today with @TheCallum :

Krennic

QBT

DCO

LS

HIE

H9

Ravager

I used Thrawn CF’s because I feared sliver and having seen Master of the Fleet am liking the fact that Thrawn’s “Reveal” dial stipulation adds the token to the SSD as well. Hope I got that right @Drasnighta !

The Advice we got was "Thrawn Dials are not Revealed."

THat's part of the FAQ.

For the purposes of things that happen "On Reveal", the Thrawn Dial is not Revealed, only the Ship dial is.

That’s a shame! But thank you! We better tell the MotF guys too.

I guess Thrawn’s SSD utility just decreased.

Here's the one I will be trying tonight. I will let you know how it goes

How have your SSD games gone?

Honestly not great. I'm still getting a feel for the SSD. It doesn't help that every game that I have played with it has been against players that are wayyyy more experienced in the game than I am. I have figured out some flaws in that build. I haven't had a chance to test my new one but It should work a bit better.

Here's a new version I plan on trying once Ritr comes out

Faction: Imperial
Commander: Admiral Piett

Assault: Close-Range Intel Scan
Defense: Planetary Ion Cannon
Navigation: Dangerous Territory

SSD Assault Prototype (250)
• Admiral Piett (22)
• Captain Brunson (5)
• Damage Control Officer (5)
• Commander Vanto (7)
• Gunnery Team (7)
• Quad Laser Turrets (5)
• Leading Shots (4)
• SW-7 Ion Batteries (5)
• Quad Battery Turrets (5)
• XI7 Turbolasers (6)
• Ravager (4)
= 325 Points

Squadrons:
• Maarek Stele (21)
• 3 x TIE Defender Squadron (48)
= 69 Points

Total Points: 394
