    "this looks like a tie fighter and a star destroyer had a baby !" this is what my friend who's never seen this ship before , said when he saw it for the first time .

    Currently running a Rebellion In The Rim campaign with some buds, my Imperial fleet was made purely to mess with the rebels, who expected big ships. Imagine their surprise when 2 raiders and an arquitens came flying at them at top speed

      @@elementairttv I think a big problem I have with it is that a lot of the UI and game design feels very dated, justifiably so given how old the game is, but there's only so much a mod can do to fix that. Whenever I encounter something irritating, nine times out of ten I think "this wouldn't be in here if the game was made today".

    The raider is my favorite imperial ship in terms of design. Its form perfectly communicates its function. FFG knocked out out of the park.
    Which is funny because even though I play Imperial and love their design I hardly ever run them, but this video did give me a lot of good ideas.

    Honestly this almost works better as a pure deterrent than anything else. Can lock down squads, run in and punch ships, and the ability to reposition a 4-speed ship with this much close range damage for only 2 points is pretty amazing.

    @madjackal8748 2 года назад +2

    Raider I, Minister Tua for the upgrade slot to add cluster bombs, ordinance expert, quad laser turrets, Flechette torpedoes
    Went with Impetuous so that you could potentially trigger the torpedoes on everything, then with the title attack try to finish a squadron off or get a 2nd chance at a squadron that you whiffed on. Or if your against a unique squadron with Evade, there's a 2nd chance to shoot them after they spent the potential Evade.

    I'm no Imp player so this is wild speculation; What would the utility of running two Raider-IIs and a VSD in a nice little murderball be? Using the Raiders to screen snub-fighters moving in while being able to lance out and do precision strikes against larger ships moving in? I know the meta is ONAGERONAGERONAGER, but I never play for victory but fun.

  • @misomiso8228
    @misomiso8228 2 года назад +1

    When your doing your ship builds, it would be quite cool if you did another Rebel Squadron build if you used ONE of each ship and not double transports or Assault Ships.
    The reason is that a lot of people don't buy double ships till later; they prefer to get different ships, so we can't do a classic Crabbok 'Double Assault ship' squadron build!
    Just an idea. Maybe an Assault, Pelta, Yavaris, Bright Hope build...?

  • @Zeoinx69
    @Zeoinx69 2 года назад +1

    While they decided ultimately to use the Raider in x-wing, its not like they didnt have other choices to bring into the role. The Tartan-class patrol cruiser was the CR-90s mirror for the Empire in Empire at war, a star wars RTS, then there was the Lancer-class frigate, a anti star fighter vessel in the expanded lore novels.. They had choices here for the Imperial Fleet.

    I wish they made a new Imperial Escort Frigate. They mentioned a new Imperial Fast Frigate in the RPG and had an Imperial Stealth Recon Frigate statted there but no details other then its connection to the Stealth Recon Frigate. (The Stealth Recon Frigate used the same Hull frame as the Fast Frigate design much like how the Immobilizer class Interdictor Cruiser and the Enforcer class Picket Cruiser used the same Hull frame as the Vindicator class Heavy Cruiser)

  • @JKSSubstandard
    @JKSSubstandard 2 года назад

    The two raider build I use are codenamed the squadbuster and the little f**k. Squadbuster is a raider 1 with ordinance experts, kallus, and flechettes. Double black flak to toggle all the enemy squadrons is just mean. The little f**k build is a raider 2 with gunnery teams, overload pulse, Palpatine and disposable capacitors. Drive up, nail the two biggest enemy threats with overload and fly away. If they want to respond, they have to discard a token. And with disp caps, there's a decent chance it gets to do that 2-3 times

    • @JKSSubstandard
      @JKSSubstandard 2 года назад

      Oh snap, he uses similar builds. But seriously, Palpatine on that overload raider is brutal. To get rid of that little tick they need to discard 1, maybe 2 defense tokens. That's brutal. Palp is a dirt cheap force multiplier for that raider build. Not only are all their tokens red for your other attacks, but they have to discard them to get the raider which can supplement its bad survivability by making people not want to attack it with big flagship shots

    Overload pulse on the Raider combined with boarding troopers on another ship larger ship can easily strip all the defence tokens in a turn off most ships.

    Whatever you do, do not think this is the empire version of the cr-90. The cr-90 can zip around and shoot at long range. The raider has to get close and put itself in danger. I find it's best at hunting down flotillas or trying to set up a squadron crossfire trap
