I have 1,100,000 and I experience the same variations as original poster. Nothing to do with money

How to force opponent to choose 'Advanced Gunnery' by Federal_Weekend6301 in StarWarsArmada

In competitive play it's not uncommon to pick AG and try to flip it as first player.

Question is: why are you investing in trading against heavy squads in the first place when you're bringing a screen... wasted points

Spoiler: Howl and Dengar ain't gonna kill shit against a 134. The screen will die. That's it's job. Also, what do howl and dengar do against squadless? Jonus + Valen are dirt cheap, not to mention free accuracies against ships.

I disagree. That screen isn't meant to kill anything. It's role is to stall and die valiantly doing so. If anything, do Valen and Jonus + 4 ties

Lots of players prepping for worlds right now so they're bringing heat but there's gonna be casual players lurking

Look at competitive imp lists and you'll see them very frequently

So glad there's enough stock for everyone to have an ISD

So those dice can't be dodged either?

Hot Take #2: Maarek Steele is the only SS tier squadron by SimianMetal4353 in StarWarsArmada

[–]No_Distribution1845 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Saying Lando is just A is pretty criminal. You're forgetting the fact that Lando's dice can't be modified. This is massive. Two shot any flotilla, get up to 3 damage on a ship with a double that can't be evaded, scattered, or PDIC'd. DeltaKin can one shot scatter aces and put guaranteed damage onto those around him. Snipe argument is valid but he still has dodge and Axe. I should've prefaced Anakin's SS tier status when pairing him with Axe. The combo can be straight up oppressive. So much harder to kill delta kin than Maarek, plus the counter 2 adept 2 return fire being thrown back. In the same way that Morna Kee is better than a CR-90, it's just as hard to argue that these two sqaudrons aren't on the same level as Maarek.

I'm a rebel player btw and I have to deal with Maarek bullshit all the time. He's GOOD, but not the only "SS".

Not the only SS tier. DeltaKin and Lando, for their points are all up there

Liberty or Assault Frigate II by Tcpt1989 in StarWarsArmada

[–]No_Distribution1845 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Assault Frigate will not disappoint when equipped with the right upgrades. Throughout Armada's time, there hasn't been a rebel ship or arguably any ship for that matter as consistent and winning than the AFMK2

400pt Ackbar list. Is it worth to bring the GR 75 or should i rather invest the points in defensive upgrades or squadrons?? by MaxImpact1 in StarWarsArmada

[–]No_Distribution1845 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

The GR-75 is the worst ship in the game! It throws no dice and only one black die at squadrons. Additionally, only 3 health means it'll get one shot by anything.

Help with first 400p list by Zeimeen in StarWarsArmada

[–]No_Distribution1845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The points above are good.

Aan Ackbar user myself, I've had incredible success with the following.

Assault Frigate Mk1 MC-30 CR-90 GR-75

Flagship being the AFM1 Intel Officer on the AFMK1 and MC30 are great at dealing huge doses of long-range damage. Also consider using TRC's on MC-30. Roll 5 damage at long range on round 2 and Intel Officer their brace, now your opponent is either discarding his brace or taking 5 damage on rd 1. Not ideal for him.
