    Moff Jerjerodd is very good in an epic game. I rarely play a game less than 1000 points and hes a must have for every list. He lets my tie bomber wing do crazy maneuvers when the leader has after burners. Lambas go alot faster with him. Alpha class star wings have an even tighter turn radius. Hes a gem, really.

    It's pretty "controlly" list by having 2 TIE blockers, stress control with Sloane and reducing the room to maneuver even more with the Proximity Mines. With Lieutenant Sai, both him and RAC become hyper efficient. When Sai coordinates RAC a Reinforce, he gets it to himself too. Through his title he also gets a target lock. At this point both of them are looking pretty good and RAC hasn't even used his action, so he can rotate his turret or take a Target Lock.
    The only point in the list I'm not really sure about are the Proximity Mines. I might consider removing them for a six point bit but that might not be enough against the lists with squishy Ini 5 pilots I need the bit against.

    @PsychJ7 5 років тому +1

    Jerjerrod is a solid choice for the Decimator, but makes it very bloated in points to make it efficient. Vader is a decent crew on it, but again points. Maybe future pilots will make this ship viable again. Still ive had my fun with RAC and Whisper flying together with a decloak boost.

  • @Fredgamer4
    @Fredgamer4 5 років тому

    Large ships with a turret only kite the board. It would be cool if the title card gave the Decimator the ability to perform port / starboard reenforce. It would most certainly help Chiraneau, still be relevant with Oicunn and generally boost it’s ability to remain out of direct combat while providing decent fire support to your other ships

    What if they had a pilot that did not roll additional dice when attacking at range one, but got 2 defense dice when defending if there were any number of enemy ships at range one.

  • @nikvernon4251
    @nikvernon4251 5 років тому

    An initiative 4 pilot with an efficiency ability would be amazing for the Deci. I love stacking force tokens on Oicunn personally. I think large base ships that are meant to be aggressive and powerful have to balance the fact that you're giving up additional attacks that you would have if you fielded more ships rather than one. But if it's too powerful, it can feel bad, the Dash problem. It's not even that its necessarily OP, more how it feels. But Han, Dash, Dengar, and RAC *should* feel powerful. It's tricky to cost and balance

  • @egyptian316
    @egyptian316 5 років тому

    I think Decimator lists are all about the ships /other/ than the Decimator. Here's where I'm coming from. The Decimator is just about the toughest ship in play right now-yeah, there's the Ghost but work with me here. With it's turret and massive hull and shields the Decimator can fly with impunity at any other ship in the game, attack, and have no fear of retaliation. I mean what are they going to do, shoot back? Your opponent MUST gang up to destroy it. So it falls to you to take that other 128 points and build a list that will swoop in and punish anything that dares turn in on your Decimator.
    Patrol Leader = 72pts
    Pure Sabacc = 44pts
    (2) Planetary Sentinel w/ Proximity Mines = 40pts
    Send the Decimator in, and let your opponent make the hard choice. He can't ignore 3 red dice in a turret, and with Reinforce he's GOT to pile it on. As soon as he turns to attack the Decimator, send in the cavalry. The Proximity Mines are just to keep your opponent from getting ideas about getting behind those Strikers. I mean, he can, but he's got to pay for the privilege.

  • @miskatonicuniversityavclub202
    @miskatonicuniversityavclub202 5 років тому

    if it had boost it wouldnt be garbage. the ONLY list i have found that works at all with a deci is RAC with tua and 5th brother, Lt. Sai with title, and naked fel 199 pts. depending on what you face, you either joust n flank, then clean up with fel, or feed them sai while arc dodging with rac, but get close to hammer em with support from sai then depend on tua after sai goes away to get tl reinforce every turn. ive thought about tactical officer as backup so when sai gets blocked i can coordinate a coordinate then they both get reinforce and sai gets the lock, but have to drop tua and i dont like that .

  • @thomasdrobnick2323
    @thomasdrobnick2323 5 років тому

    This is the only valid build I’ve been able to make with a decimator. You can switch out the ships you fly along side Oicunn, but I took him with Whisper to my first tournament and went 3-2 (Pre points change). Without Fifth Brother he’s definitely not viable, having him frees you up to take target locks.

      @michaelcavin750 5 років тому

      But for a small based ship at initiative 1 be 70 points is a little nuts. Cant even fit 3 basic defenders in a list. Yea sure they have the white k turn but countess ryad got a lot weaker along with evades. I'm not saying give me 3 named pilots I just want my 3 defenders back lol. And also upgrades have gotten a tad weaker and they lost their mod slot and title slot to gain a system and 1 shield. That doesn't really justify being as much or more points than most large ships. I'd be more scared of 3 decimators than 3 defenders.

    but this ship was my no 1, with the k wing being 2, tie d being 3, the tie punisher being 4, and the yt-666 being 5. great ship I wish they would reprint the piolits to make them better case there pretty bad right now. but will see, still love this ship will play him more in the future I hope alone with my droids.
