200 point Imperial

By mjc721, in X-Wing

Hi so my mate and i have been doing 200 point battles he plays those OP rebels and i the Imperials needless to say my win record is a bit sketch...

im thinking of running this next game for ***** and giggles what do u think?

pl,ease leave feedback.

6x Tie Fighters (howlrunner + Academy pilots) [84pts]

5x Tie Interceptors [90pts]

... leaving me 21 pts to play with...

do u have shuttles or slave1's or bombers as well? r u looking at just running straight tie-fighters+intercepters?

i do have slave, shuttle and bombers but yeah was thinking just ties and interceptors

With that many points you could easily run a Doom Shuttle with Vader :)

200pts

Omicron Group Pilot + Darth Vader + Intelligence Agent (25)

Howlrunner + Swarm Tactics + Stealth Device (23)

Academy Pilot (12)

Academy Pilot (12)

Academy Pilot (12)

Academy Pilot (12)

Soontir Fel + Swarm Tactics + Stealth Device (32)

Alpha Squadron (18)

Alpha Squadron (18)

Alpha Squadron (18)

Alpha Squadron (18)

Why do I think Jonus behind a wall of HLC equipped Shuttles would be devastating here?

Sorry, don't know what kind of feedback you are looking for. Universal support ships like Howlrunner become a lot more amazing although you run into the "problem" of keeping everyone in range to use those boosts. A mega swarm would be a pretty terrifying thing although if your opponent knows it is coming he could pack more area attacks.

The escalation tournament at worlds (started as 60 point sqauds for round 1 and built up each round to end up at 150 points for round 4) was won by Howlrunner with like 11 academy ties, most of which were clsoe enough to her. Now that was a bit different, because i guess people didnt know ahead of time to bring like 4 assault missles or have a way to work it into their sqauds since you had to carry over a large portion of your squad round to round, and you probably dont have 16 tie fighters, but imperial can definetly win this. I like bombers list cept i would prob get rid of teh intelligence agent and give fel PTL instead of swarm and let him be more on his own maybe.
