4-LOM and Sol take control of the center, Han circles and jockeys for good shots, 4-LOM can even double stress an opponent and create another obstacle for Han to use in the process, he's pretty much the ideal litterbug with advanced sensors and his ability to get a calculate after a red maneuver. Sol is solid beef, can take a lot of punishment, and has double arcs and precision bombing.

Not likely to win tournaments, 4-LOM and Sol are likely to give up half points most of the time, even when you win, which makes your score suffer, but fun for casual play.

My only question is, are Angled deflectors really worth it? That's a 3 dice gun for which I'd rather have mods

Fair point. Maybe I should just go with shield upgrade instead. Also ups the half-point cut-off. Gives me room to give 4-LOM Zuckuss crew(or upgrade seismic to proton, but I actually like running seismic).

You could ditch the ICT for 0-0-0 on LOM, extra control!

0-0-0 on 4-LOM is great. In my experience it usually results in a free calculate token, since folks are typically keen to avoid having extra stress tokens piled on them due to LOM's ability.

If you go that route, you could also toss BT-1 onto Sol Sixxa instead of the skilled bombardier; plenty of opportunity to push crits through that way.
