Not that good at this game, trying to build a good Imperial squad...

By SolennelBern, in X-Wing

Next squad I want to try:

blank.gif?v52Omicron Group Pilot + Fire-Control System + Gunner + Engine Upgrade (32)
blank.gif?v52Turr Phennir + Push the Limit (28)
blank.gif?v52Saber Squadron Pilot + Marksmanship (24)
blank.gif?v52Dark Curse (16)

And do you think a single TIE Bomber is viable? I tried some squads with a single Bomber (I only own 1) but didn't made that much difference in the game. Maybe it was badly use and/or not supported enough but it didn't felt that good alone.

Could 1 Bomber + 2 Ints + 1 Dark Curse would do the job?

Like this squad:

blank.gif?v52Dark Curse (16)
blank.gif?v52Saber Squadron Pilot (21)
blank.gif?v52Turr Phennir + Push the Limit (28)
blank.gif?v52Captain Jonus + Proton Torpedoes + Cluster Missiles + Concussion Missiles + Deadeye (35)

Thing you need to know about Jonus, is that he doesn't give the benefit to himself.

In that case, you are better off using Rhymer as his ability only works for him...but he's also 4 more points.

I know that but can't his ability be useful for the others? Flying in a tight formation so that the other ships are at range 1 from Jonus?

Jonus's ability most certainly favors other pilots, but in the squad you provided no one else is using secondary weapons... *shrug*

Dark Curse (16)

blank.gif?v52Turr Phennir + Push the Limit (28)
blank.gif?v52Captain Jonus + Proton Torpedoes + Cluster Missiles + Concussion Missiles + Deadeye (35)

LOL must have read with my eyes closed, you'Re right, secondary weapons only lol...

tbh for the pts ur spending on jonus id rather have a shuttle - even doomshuttle.

i think this squad u suggested has potential...

Omicron Group Pilot + Fire-Control System + Gunner + Engine Upgrade (32)
blank.gif?v52Turr Phennir + Push the Limit (28)
blank.gif?v52Saber Squadron Pilot + Marksmanship (24)
blank.gif?v52Dark Curse (16)

not sold on the marksmanship on Sabre tho as u r burning an action and PTL which allows boost + another action is WAY better.

Yeah I know but I only have access to 1 PTL card and don't really want to proxy.

I use what I have, for the better or worst :P

imo stealth device on Dark Curse is a little win-more as he is already a pain to hit but if u have a stealth device u could try something like...

Omicron Group Pilot + Fire-Control System + Gunner + Engine Upgrade (32)
blank.gif?v52Turr Phennir + Stealth Device (28)
blank.gif?v52Saber Squadron Pilot + PTL (24)
blank.gif?v52Dark Curse (16)

also running with veteran instincts on Turr is nice as he is now PS9 and will move after pretty much everything making his attack + boost/roll options even better.

Omicron Group Pilot + Fire-Control System + Gunner + Engine Upgrade (32)
blank.gif?v52Turr Phennir + VI (26)
blank.gif?v52Saber Squadron Pilot + PTL (24)
blank.gif?v52Dark Curse (16)
+ 2 pts to spend on another cheap crew upgrade for shuttle?

I really like your second suggestion, Turr+VI and Saber+PTL. The 2 points left could be cool too.

Think i'm gonna try this!

Thanks!
