Captain Needa and the Onager

By Wetaas, in Star Wars: Armada

Have anyone tried to use captain Needa on the Onager Star Destroyer. It will make you trade away one defense token to gain evade.

so why do you want evade ?

Turbolaser reroute circuits.

This make you guaranteed to make those crits every time to the super weapons.

You can achieve similar using Weapons Battery techs or Gunnery Chief Varnillian - and there are two weapons team slots. I've played my Onager a few times and lack of crits wasn't such a problem. The officer slot on big ships often goes to Strategic Advisor.

There are better options for the Turbolaser slot. XI7 or LTT (Rerolls for Salvo!) or even H9 to one shot Flotillas.

Not guaranteed 😁
The targets evade tokens and Sloane will ruin this a little bit.

It is still a nice combination. But as the others said already, these two are high contested slots. And there are better/more important cards that should be on these slots.

I've tried it and it's nice when it comes off, but there's a lot of slot competition

Needa is good in an Onager mirror match as the two dice canceling power at extreme range is sweet, the trc thing is kinda bad there are better ways to get the crit.
