16 Activations
22 With Default Reserves
150 pts.

56 Aqualish Assassin x8
11 Darth Sidious Hologram
30 Xizor
24 Rodian Black Sun Vigo
15 Lobot, Computer Liasion Officer
6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2
5 Caamasi Noble
3 Mouse Droid

Reserves:

Lobot's:

24 Medical Droid x2 (Low HP so Avoid Defeat Might Just Help)
6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2

Xizor's:

20 Bith Black Sun Vigo

Rodian Vigo's:

20 Bith Black Sun Vigo


I've never ran an aqualish swarm, so any advice would be much appreciated.
70 pts of reserves on an 11 with recon chances. no accurate shot if i keep rodian or a mouse in range. so 2 chances at 11 every round.

thinking i'm missing something to keep the aqualish from dieing..

For 200 i'm highly considering Darth Plageius to Abuse Essence of Life... Ill Post that here in a few

Aqualish swarms are usually run in Rebel squads using the Ithorian commander and Han in Stormtrooper Armor. That lets them get +4 atk & +10 dmg from the Ithorian and Charging assault from Han.

Yep, there are some really solid Rebel builds with AAs. Of course, the Lancer and Yobuck are almost auto-losses, and Kyle JBM's disruptive will cause problems (you'll still be able to use Charging Fire to get to him since it's activated before you move and therefore when you're not disrupted, but when you make the attack you'll lose the +4/+10 bonus from the Ithorian). And in the Rebel faction Xixor isn't important, since his CE won't stack with the IC's CE (both are un-typed bonuses)...and Xixor's CE requires a range of 6 (hard to pull off even with mice when you're using Charging Fire) whereas the IC's CE is boardwide.

But if you want to stick with the Sith, I think you've got the squad pretty much right. However, I would not bring Med Droids with Lobot's Reserves, because Avoid Defeat only works 25% of the time. Maybe instead this is what I'd use for Lobot's Reserves:
Option 1:
Aqualish Assassin x4 (the squad is built for them, so you might as well keep bringing them in)

Option 2:
TBSV (has Jolt which can help to set up a nasty enemy for the AA's Opportunist attacks)
Aqualish Assassin
Human Blaster-for-Hire (has Black Sun, so he benefits from Xixor's CE)

As for Xixor and Rodian Reserves, the Bith Vigo could be good (solid stats and grants Evade to your AAs), but you might also consider more AAs again. The AAs hit hard, but die with just 1 hit, so the more of them you can get on the map, the better.

Have fun with your AA swarm! It's one of my favorite squad types. :)
