    It’s always bugged me that the “support” refit only has 1 squadron value

      @mordantcrimson 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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

    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.

  • @brettwiemken5559

    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

    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.

    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.
