It’s always bugged me that the “support” refit only has 1 squadron value
I always figured that was because it was the "Medical Frigate" from ESB - (support as in fleet auxilliary) the hanger bays have made way for other facilities
Love the revisit! Just got into Armada, finally got a core set!
Even since expanding my collection a bit I'm still running a nebulon in every single rebel build. Whenever I play armada with my dad he uses it really well. It's one of my favorite looking rebel ships too.
You have A LOT more experience with Star Wars Armada than I do, but I started watching this video because I’ve always loved Nebulon B’s and have decided to make one my flagship. I was doing a Pelta with a bunch of small ships. Anyway, one thing you didn’t mention... is that Mon Mothma makes evade better.
I just need a card for the lovely new Imperial Nebulan that's we can get our hands on now. God I so want that to be able to be properly supported
You know the Nebulons started as Imperial ships, they just kept being stolen by the Rebels.
@@elijahsellers3727 thats, literally what I was talking about..
@@Biodragon882 I figured, but I wasn't sure. Not many people seem to have read the novels that mentions that kind of thing. A lot of world building took place in the novels and people just don't read much.
@@elijahsellers3727 literally in my og comment I said I wanted a card for the imperial Nebulon, as this was after the release of a third party one
Loving the guides, really helping me get into the game. Thanks keep it up!
spines, gunnery team, vanguard, and shield teams. it throws 8 red dice a turn and it has good survivability! i enjoy running this build.
Nolan Dickerson it can only throw 8 dice if it’s targeting two ships so it’s not as good it’s just better to run a different ship
@@peewee130946 if you can run a ship that can do an average of 7 damage an activation for 74 points then by all means run that ship, but ill run what I like.
Nolan Dickerson again 7 if it targets two ships with its tiny front hull
@@peewee130946 im glad we agree.
jacob blackman How about you not suck the fun out of the game eh? We can run whatever we want. How about not be toxic and let ppl enjoy the ships they want to play with. Pls and thank you.
I think it’d be a cool concept if Armada implemented a "Mega (Faction) Expansion Pack." The rebels could have a DP20 (Small), Assault Frigate Mk I (Medium, more black dice focused), some squadrons like U-wings and K-wings. Imperials could have Tartan Patrol Cruiser (small), Dreadnaught-Class Heavy Cruiser (medium), squadrons could be Tie Reapers & Strikers.
If they wanted to include more, rebels could have Marauder Class Corvette & Empire gets maybe an Acclamator, but I can see them saving that for the clone wars version of Armada. It'd be an interesting thought though if the ship was compatible/interchangeable for both factions though (Clones & Empire) as a multi-use ship
I'd prefer Alpha class starwings than TIE Reapers
Eli Wintercross Fair. I was just thinking to Rogue One how we have a bunch of ships from there but none of the imperial squadrons shown on Scarif
Thanks for doing these for each ship. They really help me to navigate to a few good base builds for ships to at least have something on the table that isn't a total trainwreck as I learn this game.
The Nebulon B is such an iconic ship. I love seeing it revitalized and made useful. The Heavy Fire Zone build is great for new players who are still learning to not get overwhelmed by squadrons.
Always look forward to your armada content
This is the only ship I would ever use slaved turrets on
I really liked your imperial Nebulon you painted! Great work.
This is the only ship I run slaved turrets on
Every time I use a Nebulon B it never dies
Love your content Crabbok, keep it coming! Solid discussion about Nebulon Bs here for sure.
I really like the Local Fire Control on Nebulon Bs. It becomes a really affordable ship counter option, and dishes out a lot of return fire for an incredibly low cost. Also really love Heavy Fire Zone as well, for insane anti-squadron builds. Overall, it's great to see the Nebulon Bs given more variety in how they can support the builds players want to run. It's lovely.
Thanks for the video, already excited for your comments and badreps to come.
Just starting Armada, thank you for the upgrade build run down.
I’m working on building a ‘rush’ rebel fleet with the star hawk and winged calamari ship who’s name escapes me at the moment. I think using the ghost to escort in bombers too is a pretty good idea. Essentially rush enemy capital ship and pick off the rest
Mc80 battlecruiser/starcruiser also known as „Liberty“ from the Movies
Thanks so much for this! I've never been a huge Nebulon B fan, but this gives some further options with it in the future! Excellent!
I'm looking forward to HFZ with a neb. Also glad to see Redemption getting some attention, my personal favorite for the neb.
I never used to run Nebulons. Now I might!
Thanks for the revisist. Really like adding Aux Shield Teams. And you're right....packs a (somewhat survivable) punch for it's point cost.
Nebs are rough to field but you can rush a bunch and have some fun
So cool to see how the Neb can work now with HFZ. Really lets it reach out and irritate TIES with low health at long range
I still use a pair of nebs for my flak boats, love em for that.
I have definitely been inspired with ideas on how to fit this ship back into lists. Could be very interesting in RitR task forces.
Neb B still makes a respectable slow-roll rifle line
HFZ would also be great on Yavaris!! Super squadron support, helping to flak down enemy squads and help your own to get to bombing ships faster.
Also, good thought to put Agate on other nebs. Yav can be one threat while Agate buffs another to be a second threat
Awesome video! Planning on running a LTT anti-squadron Nebulon in my RitR campaign!
more of these please!!!!! still kind of new so could do with up to date breakdowns!
Another great video! Nebs are stellar in pairs! With you on the gunnery teams and Salvation cycle!
Yep, Neb-B became really good with the new cards, I often play with one or two Neb-Bs on my fleets. But I highly recommend you to revisit the Starhawk, it is not a bad ship as you think
Where do I get the new cards?
@@OrionSlaveGirlUWU , from that: starwars-armada.fandom.com/wiki/Rebellion_in_the_Rim_-_Campaign_Expansion
Always loved the neb as a support ship, I'd try to keep it out of harm's way at a slower speed and often had ships flanking it. Making slaved turrets useful.
Always love the Nebulon B! Always try to fit one into my lists, keep up the good work Crabbok
I personally love the Neb-B, one of my favorite ships as well as the Victory. I’d love to see a properly supported Imp Neb-B. Bet they would pair well with the Arqs.
I like running Major Derlin on Nebulons.
Thanks for these, they're really helpful for me as a new player
I look forward to seeing your updates on the Empire’s ships
Thanks for this. Enjoying this series. Will you also be updating your 'What to buy first' videos?
Salvation and spinal armaments would be a good combination.
if heavy fire zone was literally "exchange blue for red" i wouldnt even take that for 1pt unless i had a few random points floating around and didnt use that slot yet.
The actual die itself is technically better than blue but not by much. Less accurate, but the 2damage side offsets that. The true benefit is that insane reach.
New to Armada and have really been enjoying your videos very helpful for a new player. That is an awesome shirt where did you get it?
Nice video, thanks for sharing some great build suggestions!
Yes! Some Neb-B love!
First Armada ship I bought just before wave 3/4 came out (only $20). Looked into gameplay and shelled out $90 for core game. Still have and use "Horizon"
Curious to see a massive amount of Nebulons in a bat rep... hint hint.
The nebulon b is my favorite ship and when I got my Nadiri Starhawk I now usually run like a Starhawk with Ackbar and like 3 nebulons
Great video Crabbok, now where do I get a Chimera shirt?
You can get 11 engineering points if you use an mc 80 with leia or raymus antilles then engineering team, exodus fleet, and redemption
Hmmm, maybe my next build should include a nebulon
I wonder once the clone wars comes out if they will have cross-faction ships like the pelta and if they do that you could mabey use the nebulon b for the empire.
Long live the Neb B!
What do you think of akhbar and 6 neb b escort frig each with HFZ.
Hi. You are often talkin that Brace is the best according to defence. But on the other hand, when you are talking about offencive, I haven't seen you ever talk or use HTT. Why if this turbolaser tells you can brace only one damage (if brace is only token used)?
What ships can fire at extreme range? Is it just the Onager?
Now that you have the Imperial Nebulon B variant EC Henry designed, what changes do you think would change on the ship as a platform?
Nebulan with vanguard local fire control team with kyrsta agate and now you can just dance around with defense tokens lol
I will say I think vanguard with C+S for rerolls on all the red dice is nice
Hate to break it to you but I one shot a neb b with a Vic sd.
Totally love all your star wars content. If your ever in k.c. I would love play a game or two
Walter Ward he said that was the exception
Where's the fleet builder link?
Hey so you were talking about the evades at extreme range. So that mc 30 title that blocks normal 2 with evade, would that block 4 at extreme range?
The title states that it cancels ONE additional result, so it could block 3 at extreme.
Ok thank you!
I love to blow these up as an Imperial captain.
Where do you keep finding these websites
I"m going to try the AuxShield, for moral effect alone :-D
I do love Nebulon-Bs
Nebulon B, I swear by them
Also will Mon Mathma every cancel 2 dice at long range and 3 at ultra with the new mechanic coming into play?
No she doesn't do anything extra at extreme range. You're thinking of the MC-30 Title that targets one additional die.
I don't know what i could write
Love the neb b!
Why would you ever use the nebulon over cr-90 in a akbar fleet cr-90 are just better
entering to win... Nebulan could be better with newer cards huh
Love the show!
Neb-Bs are a great filler ship. I have three now and that have good uses.
Agate is a real word, and it’s not pronounced the way you’re doing it. Is her name pronounced this way in cannon somewhere?
In the audio books for the Aftermath Trilogy. It's, "a gate", like, I installed "a gate" in my fence for visitors to open and close.
@@Crabbok Cool. Thanks!
Algorithm booster
Great video Crabbok, now where do I get a Chimera shirt?
If you check the links below, I have a teepublic T-Shirt shop. The Chimaera isn't one of mine, but it's on that site if you search for it.
