Decided to finally give these guys a go. Still pretty new to the game itself and just recently got into S&V. Not sure what I am doing this is just someting I liked. I am open to any suggestions or advice.

Kimoglias are on my want to fly list. Picked up 2 from barnes and nobles for 75% off.

Each variation of the Falcon (Rebel, Resistance, Scum) has a different ship name/dial so no, you can’t use the Rebel dial/cardboard in the scum faction, at least if you’re following official rules.

I’m still thinking there’s likely a better third ship than Palob. Give the Kimoglia a shot.

Something like this would be my personal starting point.

Thanks guys for more ideas to run!!! I do not currently have a G-1A but i will look into getting one. I would like to run passive sensor's on the bots but I do not have those yet either.

Been experimenting with triple Brobots: called Tricepticons. Its a lot of fun. Its especially fun having the synergy of 3x IG88s. So far, I'm 4-0 with it.

Might be blasphemy, but do you think there's any merit in dropping IG-2000 on B to add Autoblasters or Tractor Beam? If B has the "good" cannon, it probably isn't as eager to give up its calculates, so the only major loss here is the lack of straight/turn "Segnor's Loops" on B. Edit: Derp, some reason I thought A & D could get the bonus cannon benefit from B without B having the title. Disregard.

HERESY! TRAITOR! Guards, off with his head... <thump> Move along. Move along.

In this thread, Triceptitons , i talked about my decisions between ACD vs ABD. Choosing violence with ABD is the way to go. But, I don't think giving up the 3x ship synergy is worth it for a 2 point cannon. Having all three ships to share calculates, shoot jamming beam, and many ways to turn around is just too awesome to break.

The trick is focus firing all 3x ships on one or two targets. I even won against a double Firespray list (Boba + Koshka).

My Go-to after a lot of theorycrafting, not nearly as much realy testing as I would like, is (as others have also suggested) pairing 4-Lom with 88D crew with 2 other bots.

Also, I have had quite good success with Marksmanship and Autoblasters.

And I find it hard to fill the sensor slot or the illicit slot, but I come from V1.0 Bro-bots where 88B and FCS and Glitterstim was just awesome.

I want to share my experience as well. I tried 3 ship build but wasn't satisfied, so I tried a classical 2 ship build.

The most upgrades I had on a single ship ever.

- IG-88B is too strong in a two ship build to not take it into the list
- Both A and D are good imo. I think A is better in a 3 ship list. I tried D once and it was awesome. The 3 turn segnors loop is awesome and comes unexpected. The best part is that you dial in a 3 segnors loop and have the choice of executing 3 different maneuvers.
- Elusive is nice because both bots are flying lots of red maneuvers. The double calculate helps to get the most out of it. (I tried Fearless-it's nice and a good alternative)
- Adv. Sensors because it's the most important upgrade. You can intentionally bump and perform your amazing spin maneuvers while staying modified.
- Ion and tractorcontrol is the strongest part combined with B's ability.
- Proton Bombs helped me a lot to push damage through and are necessary
- Deadman Switch because each of my opponents who killed a bot at r1 forgot about it (>dead Vader)
- Still not sure about Stealth Device. I found it really helpful because it works well with Elusive and double calculate.

The list is not easy to fly because it can lack damage output. In this particular build (because no IG A) I only use the calculate action. Only having 2 calcualtes can be problematic if you want to push damage through. Being able to double tap helps to mitigate this problem.

I think ill give your list a shot on the next x-wing night.

What would really be more effective though Jam cannon or tractor beam?

I played against Jess, Cova, Greer and Zari yesterday. I was able to tractor Jess on a rock twice to deny her attack. So tractor all the way.

Elusive won me the game, its really good in this build.

Tractor beam all the way. As stated, you can ttactornonto a rock, possibly set up an easier shot for the other IG.

I usually start in the middle and turn left or right depending on which side the opponent is starting. Both IG‘s are pretty fast with the boost action.

So does "D's" ability essentially give him a straigt 3k?

Yup.
