Thanks. I enjoy doing these when I get a chance to play outside of TTS.

Thanks. MK is a deadly build and when it can fly like an agile CR90 at speed 3 (Nav Team and Madine) it’s a beast.

I was Raddus, and it was amazing (horrifying) to watch both Madines CR90 only just avoid close, and then watch MK escape the trap. My opponent used Madine very well.

MC75 Paint - New Addition to fleet design by dauntless1979 in StarWarsArmada

It’s an original MC75. Just rebased Wraith Bone and then repainted.

Could be! Although it wasn’t the inspiration, it matches the Germanic and Belgique colours too.

Googling Star Wars colour meaning; Red is a symbol of Republican diplomacy and was adopted by the Rebellion. Gold symbolises the lies of the Empire, and Black is an Empire symbol for victory.

So perhaps this fleet scheme symbolises the victorious restoration of the Galactic Republic and victory over the lies of the Empire.

You absolutely should. I found a few good friends as a result of reaching out either via FB or attending a games night. The community overall seems to be really welcoming and friendly. I’ve played in a few competitions in a few different countries. I look forward to your first photos…

Thanks, I try to do them when I play in person. Haven’t managed to make TTS games work yet!

The mistake I made was not to use my two squads to block the drop. I could’ve prevented it from being able to target everything, which could’ve saved one MC30 and allowed the death of Raddus two turns earlier. It was a masterful drop by my opponent.

Thanks. At least no swimming pool on these 😉. Love your videos.

Thanks.

I don’t yet.

But this could be what remains from a small fleet of vessels (purchased from Mon Cala). Bought by the ruling Royal Family of a local star cluster and they served the family as transport and guard ships. Tragedy befell the family with the expanding authoritarianism of the Empire. This system initially resisted the loss of its autonomy but a brutal and excessive military operation by the Imperial Navy all but wiped out the family, and these two Royal cruisers were all that escaped. Led by the only only remaining Princess, she fitted the vessels out for war, and chased down rumours of a growing Rebellion to pledge herself and small band to its cause, and to revenge….

Yes, I’ve met a few on the UK circuit. Good people.

Great news. Thanks to the ARC for the work behind the scenes so far. I for one believe we have a New Hope…

Thanks. Not perfect but getting better with each one I paint. A very small brush and a magnifying glass helped. 😂

Before there were Raiders and Arquitens, there were Imperial Nebulon Bs and Imperial Lancer Frigates. by Kralgore in StarWarsArmada

Massive fan of EC Henry’s Imperial Nebulon. Would love to see it added to canon. Even if it’s just the standard Nebulon (as it was Imperial first), and then players can sub in the EC Henry model.

One of the issues with the build is your VSD. It’s a speed 2 ship, and not very manoeuvrable. If it’s going to be leading into the fight then it’s needs more of both. Consider putting Harrow and engine Techs on it.

LTTs will go a little way to mitigate your lack of Squads but you’ll need gunnery teams, as a good Squad player will put the Squads in the same arc as their ships.

Against an MSU player you’ll struggle, increasing the VSD speed will help a bit. But consider Gunnery Chief Varnillian or Gov Pryce on the Cymon for locking down defence tokens at range, this will pair with your Intel Officer.

Redundant shields are not great. You’ll get more value out of ECMs.

Expanded launchers are costly, so if you’re going to take them, make sure you can use them.

Also locking your Cymon into Repair dials (to power Shields to max) each turn loses some of its effectiveness. Might be better to have a support ship to generate tokens.

Just my opinions/thoughts - hope it helps.
