I have a favourite list, six activations, (inc Strat Adv), lots of black dice (Kuat, 2 x GSD1s, Screed).
I thought I'd try for the opposite (ie red dice). This is what I've come up with, and would appreciate any comments / suggestions for change etc.
Key thing is I want long range fire power but other that nothing is set in stone.
Cymoon 1 Refit (112 + 62: 174)
+ Grand Admiral Thrawn (32)
+ Darth Vader (1)
+ Gunnery Team (7)
+ Intensify Firepower! (6)
+ Linked Turbolaser Towers (7)
+ Spinal Armament (9)
Arquitens-class Light Cruiser (54 + 11: 65)
+ Skilled First Officer (1)
+ Enhanced Armament (10)
Arquitens-class Light Cruiser (54 + 11: 65)
+ Skilled First Officer (1)
+ Enhanced Armament (10)
Gozanti-class Cruisers (23 + 2: 25)
+ Comms Net (2)
Gozanti-class Cruisers (23 + 2: 25)
+ Comms Net (2)
Ciena Ree (17)
Valen Rudor (13)
Howlrunner (16) or (Sabre Squadron plus Hand of Justice on one Arquitens for same points?)
400 points
Opening Salvo
Planetary Ion Cannon
Solar Corona
My thoughts:
Thrawn gives me Concentrate fire dials for more dice or Engineering to repair.
SFOs on the Arquitens for DV to force choke to get rerolls on the red dice when my gunners (aka the dice) go awol.
Intensify Firepower for a little dice manipulation
LTT for the same - If there's two blanks (likely) then better to move one with IF and reroll the other with LTT.
Small squadron presence which could tie up enemy squadrons for a bit.
I think I'd be happy to be second player and could replace Sabre with a higher pointed squadron to get to 400.
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance for your input.
EDIT - Made a schoolboy error with DV Officer. Amended the list slightly.
