Brakiri numbers

[Talisinbear]

with the new ships out

how many Shakara are people running in as fleet?

how many Riva make sense? more than the four that come in a pack ?

Are pikatos good at 4 flights ? more ? better than the original fighters?

thanks

No Shakaras (ISD rules it out of most of the campaigns I play). Rivas are 3 per Patrol point and are nasty little beasts. I've got 4 wings in my campaign fleet (no models as yet- substituting Sky Serpents). Pikatos are somewhere in between the Falkosi and Riva. Better anti-ship attacker but poor at dogfighting. Can swap them 1-1 with Falkosi flights.

did the Falkosi end up with +1 dog fight in 2e? If so it seems as though a lot of fighters got beefed up.

Personally I love using fighters so is a good thing, plus they were always featured in the show
