I swapped out 4-LOM for Intelligence Agent on Asajj and it turned out to be a good choice (at least, when I remembered to use it). Though Asajj tended to be too far away to use it often enough. In retrospect, Intel Agent belongs on the quadjumper, the way Dragoon had it set up. Also I think a basic Jakku Gunrunner with intel agent is better than Unkar with BoShek. I only got Unkar's ability to trigger once, and BoShek activated once without much effectiveness.

The real winner here was Spacetug Tractor Array! That's an amazing ability against small ships, and I planted plenty of dangerous foes on asteroids. No defense roll, so the really evasive targets are the best victims. However it's only okay against larger ships... -1 agility is nice, but I had to be able to get into range 1 and pull it off while the team is angled to exploit it (which may have been situationally bad, hiding that it's good overall). So it's an amazing anti-fighter ability at least.

The first battle went well (Norra + Rey, and I kept ruining Norra's life), but the next two (both against the same opponent flying Dash with two naked B-Wings) went terribly. Asajj kept taking massive damage from Dash's hot-as-the-surface-of-the-sun HLC dice, and dying early. That sucked because it felt like the result of random rolls more than anything, but it happened in both games. Fenn kept getting tragically bumped, due to really good planning from my opponent; this ruined Fenn's chance to destroy Dash. I was able to take down the B-Wings easily but Dash was a serious problem, and in retrospect I should have killed him first.

Really cool opponents as always, fun and smart people. I was in a lot of pain from my back though (having trouble this week, need to get it looked at), so I was kinda grumpy at the end, which I feel bad about. I don't like to be a bad sport, and no matter what's going on inside or outside the game, I shouldn't turn into a grouch. My opponent doesn't deserve that.

In conclusion, that Spacetug is obscene and I love it. I will try to work my quadjumper into future fleets. It seems like the perfect threat for some of the cocky aces on the board. I've been flying a lot of Rebels lately, and now I think I'd like to give my Scum and Imperial buddies some love.
