Trying to improve a Raddus double mc75 list

By TheRedScourge, in Star Wars: Armada Fleet Builds

Used this list for VWC qualifier with little success. I like this list but it’s just falling short. Any ideas of changes?

Raddus (389/400)
MC75 Armored Cruiser (104)

- Admiral Raddus (26)
- Electronic Counter Measures (7)
- Overload Pulse (8)
- Strategic Adviser (4)
- External Racks (3)
- H9 Turbolasers (8)
- Weapons Battery Techs (5)
= 165 total points

MC75 Armored Cruiser (104)
- Boarding Troopers (3)
- Electronic Counter Measures (7)
- Leading Shots (4)
- Walex Blissex (5)
- External Racks (3)
- Quad Battery Turrets (5)
= 131 total points

CR90 Corvette A (44)
- Jaina's Light (2)
- Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7)
= 53 total points

GR-75 Medium Transports (18)
- Comms Net (2)
= 20 total points

GR-75 Medium Transports (18)
- Comms Net (2)
= 20 total points

Not an experienced player. But here is a couple changes that seem good:

MC75 Armored Cruiser (104)
• Admiral Raddus (26)
• Walex Blissex (5)
• Weapons Battery Techs (5)
• Electronic Countermeasures (7)
• Assault Proton Torpedoes (5)

• H9 Turbolasers (8)
= 164 Points

MC75 Armored Cruiser (104)
• Lando Calrissian (4)
• Boarding Troopers (3)
• Electronic Countermeasures (7)
• Assault Proton Torpedoes (5)
• Leading Shots (4)
• Quad Battery Turrets (5)
= 132 Points

GR-75 Medium Transports (18)
• Comms Net (2)
= 20 Points

GR-75 Medium Transports (18)
• Comms Net (2)
= 20 Points

CR90 Corvette A (44)
• Turbolaser Reroute Circuits (7)
• Jaina's Light (2)
= 53 Points

Squadrons:
= 0 Points

Total Points: 389

@Uncrustable main goal of the Raddus ship was to make an ion crit. go off every shot with H9 and WBT. I’m a sucker for overload pluse might just be the down fall of my list

Heavy ion emplacements would be a better blue crit?

In most cases I agree but I was trying to boarding troopers after the overload pluse went off. Great when it happens but finding harder to do when I play good players even with Raddus placing a ship

I've ran lists very close to this one before, and my main takeaway is that a second boarding troopers is far more reliable than overload pulse. I've also tried to do 2x BT together with the overload pulse, which is very forgiving for getting of the main gimmick (since you can make do with 2 out of 3 getting off and still completely melt somebody's face), but of course can struggle a bit against some matchups. This version delivers the 2xBT from the MC75s, and a CR90b dropped from Profundity to deliver the OP, using Toryn, CF dial plus CF token from Hondo to get a total of 9 chances to roll a crit. I've stopped using this version myself since it seems a bit too overspecialized and I've been seeing DCOs more often lately, but it's great fun.

It has a few points left to play with.
