It's not my normal cup o' tea. I prefer Vermeil, Maarek and Vader but I got to thinking about trying something like this:

Thunder Road:

Captain Oicunn (74)
Intimidation (3)
Darth Vader (14)
0-0-0 (5)
Agent Kallus (5)
BT-1 (2)
Shield Upgrade (3)
Dauntless (4)

Storm Squadron Ace (40)
Marksmanship (1)
Passive Sensors (3)

Storm Squadron Ace (40)
Marksmanship (1)
Passive Sensors (3)
Total: 198

Basically the Stormies can take care of themselves, while Oicunn blocks, can Vader pull tokens, grind damage out, and 000 and BT-1 combo to make range one shots really hurt. Kallus is there so I don't feel bad constantly burning Vader's force every turn, though if this was extended I'd probably use Tarkin.

Death by a thousand cuts?

The only reason it’s called Highway Patrol is because they have police car repaints.

You can replace Soontir with Grand Inq too if you’re not a Soontir flyer.

I would add another Inq.

any ideas/suggestions for running them as a two of?

RAC and Oincun ?

Different ways to load them out but major concerns are flying these banthas around you need guaranteed actions and mods.

Thus only 1 force per ship and way to get actions when bumping. The rest is your preference. You can equip VTG but I prefer double Prox.

Vader is a must.

i like it - not fully HS legal is it?

not too sure tbh

tia

Yeah.... I THINK minister tua is not so you may have to go the grand inq Crew route for guaranteed action

A friend of mine went with

• Maarek Stele (Marksmanship, FCS) 49
• Duchess (Fifth Brother) 51
• Rear Admiral Chiraneau (Vader, Proton Bomb, Dauntless) 99

at a Hyperspace-format local kit tournament (shortly before Wave 5), and went 4-0. Seems like a decent little squad, a good mix of strengths.

Just messing around and throwing stuff out there and going the thematic route. Probably too much on the VT-49 but what a show!

VT-49 Decimator - •Captain Oicunn - 121
•Captain Oicunn - Inspired Tactician (74)
Intimidation (3)
•Darth Vader (14)
•0-0-0 (5)
•Seventh Sister (9)
Shield Upgrade (3)
• Dauntless (4)
•Fifth Brother (9)

I was batting around something like this just a few days ago. I subbed Minister Tua and BT-1 for 7-Sis and 5-Bro, tossed a Hull Upgrade on, and gave the Inquisitors Predictive Shot.

Minister Tua isn't in Hyperspace is she?

Theme wise it seemed like the Grand Inquisitor should be in the list but that takes 0-0-0 out of the list and the murder droid seemed to go better with 7th Sister.

Ciena Ree seems like she'd fit in these lists especially the ones with three Inquisitors.

Whoop, I think you're right.

The problem with multiple force users that require their force for their abilities, is that you only regen 1 force per round. Don’t prefer having the choice of 2-3 force options and only 1 force 😖 😖

That is a reasonable take. It can be frustrating to not be able to use all the stuff at hand. I don't mind having to pick from several. Dropping two of them and some other stuff to get an academy TIE doesn't seem better than too many force users and too few force tokens.
