Killer B: Corvette Tactics in Star Wars Armada

By Barclay Montgomery | June 12th, 2019 | Categories: Star Wars Armada, Star Wars Tactics

Raymus Antilles is pushing his Corvette B to the max! This build will be a support ship that has teeth. Come and check out what it takes to join the Rebels!

CR90 Corvette B

The Corvette B is the medium range brawler for the Rebel faction. With blue dice in every battery, this Corvette must expose itself to counter-attack when it engages its foes.  Careful positioning must be used when using the Corvette B as it can be a powerful first attack ship. Heavy Ion Emplacements

Since the Corvette is a blue dice fanatic, it only makes sense to outfit this ship with a powerful Ion upgrade. Heavy Ion Emplacements is the perfect upgrade for the seemingly harmless medium range version of this ship. As a blue critical, the defending hull zone and each adjacent hull zone lose 1 shield when attacking. This is very useful for removing enemy shields quickly but does nothing for damage against the hull.

Raymus Antilles

To give you a little boost to your Corvette B, Raymus Antilles will be commanding this ship. Raymus is powerful for his ability to give you a matching command token when you reveal a command. This can be used to help you reroll your dice with a concentrate fire command by gaining a token to use.

Tantive IV

Raymus can also help out with your other ships in the Rebel fleet. With the Tantive IV title card, your Corvette will be a mini Comms Net ship. Before you gain a command token, a friendly ship at distance 1-5 may gain that token instead. With Raymus, every command gains you a token, so you can pass it off to another ship in need. Raymus is bringing the Corvette B back out into the forefront of the Rebel advance!
