I tried Holo and 4 sf with optics on TTS not too long ago. I don't own 4sf, only one. But I figure I could justify one more if this list was viable. Any good lists with 2sfs? How about 5 ship FO in general? Any help greatly appreciated

I find this list to be extremely fun to play.

"Quickdraw" (45) - Fanatical (2), SF Gunner (10), Deuterium Power Cells (9)

Captain Phasma (39) - Proud Tradition (2), SF Gunner (10), Hull upgrade (5)

x3 Zeta Squadron Pilot (26)

Total: 200

Fly Phasma and two Zetas together and QD and a Zeta together. Phasma is pretty wicked at tanking/passing off damage to either of the Zetas and can be a strong endgame piece. I'm not entirely convinced by the DPCs on QD or if I were to change them out, I'm not sure what for??

If you're specifically trying to build around the I2 Zeta Survivors, I'd pair them with the I1 fo Cadets.

Just run two and two opposing mid-center deployment, and you should have enough points for a 5th "ace" or other focal piece.

The sfs excell either as light fighter's with Optics, or heavy fighter with sf gunners.

Either loadout can work as long as you have a plan, pick your 5th pilot carefully, and consider during your planning phase that you'll be moving in a "1, then 2" order with your separate wings - your I1 Cadets priming the board, then your sf's following up around and besides to fill in the cracks of your firing arcs.

It'll feel more like a "protect the queen" kind of squad, with your win condition often coming down to how well your mini-ace contributes to your game.

Good luck!
