Vassal Corellian Conflict: Campaign blog, part 7 (round 3)

Rebel attack at Tralus imminent. Lord Vader responding...

So this is my friendly list for r3. I've picked up some extra upgrades (STM!, Quads, and Devastator), fleshing out the ISD. Demo gets Brunson. Some extra squads. Still not great, and I have control issues, but not as horrible as before.

Rebels screamed in horror when they saw the title: Devastator. But if you look closely, this is (at least in my eyes) VERY different from my WC list. I've limited myself to 5 activations, while rebels are now at 6 and 6 and 5 (Ackbar). And I'm locked in eternal 2nd player mode... so... yeah. I still think that list is about as friendly as I can get without deliberately trying to make the list bad.

Arrayed against me is Sato, and a LOT of WAB. Tralus is just a standard planet, so we're running my usual objectives. I'm guessing Dangerous Territory again. Although I will offer to swap in Blockade Run and Ion Cannons if Veggie thinks that will be more fun.

Anyway, I'm out-activated and 2nd player, and that's always a challenge. He's got some good squads in there, so I'm not really feeling a win in the squad fight. But at least he'll need to close if he wants to use Sato's ability. Downside is he's taken a million WAB. Not very friendly at all. And why does he have THREE VCXs? Lol!
