My initial list had Jendon in bit then I swapped it out for Vader. Not sure if this is the right choice? Advice welcome.
Plan is for Bossk, Strom and Dengar to tie up the initial enemy squadron ball Whilst Morna, Vader and the vanilla Decimator head to the enemy ships. Strom shoots first and rerolls to get Bossk his auto accuracy. He is also there to act as escort for his trio, as Vader does the same for his. If no enemy Squadron then I can mix it up a bit but still keep Strom with Bossk.

Until I get another pack of Imp Sqn 2, I’d like to keep Bossk in there as I only have 2 Decimator. I wouldn’t mind trying to squeeze in Boba Fett as well instead but not sure who to swap him with. Vector title is to give some of my speed 3 ships an additional boost.

Are Flechette Torps a good take or should I use Ex Racks?

Thanks!

I'd take Maarek over Vader. He'll do more work against ships and comparable work against squads, but Zertik protects him. Jendon could replace the generic Deci, maybe; he's a little easier to not command (or use a banked token early) because his attack range is effectively 4 if you have something engaged with the target already.

Love the list.

Borrowed it from Dave’s Armada AAR’s but just amended Squadrons slightly and added Vector.

Will look at Maarek instead of Vader.

How about this for a Squadron list? It puts my list at 391. Would need to buy another pack of R&V for Tel: -

Squadrons:
• Bossk (23)
• Dengar (20)
• Maarek Stele (21)
• Morna Kee (27)
• Zertik Strom (15)
• Tel Trevura (17)
= 123 Points

Tel provides escort for Maarek, and can travel 5 with Vector. Hmm but Morna still travels 4..... Aargh! Or Vader instead of Tel?

Not sure I understand the use of flechette torps as you need to spend a black crit and the glad attack squads with 2 blues. You need a raider or and ISD to use this ordonnance.

Kallus. He'll add a rerollable black for each attack (Demo usually gets to flak twice if desired), which statistically lands him the crit against uniques.

If he doesn't get one and really needs it, he can use Screed.

And (Iirc) the Flechette Torps are a spend, so no defence tokens to cancel it out.
