Centauri 5 Point Raid ideas?

[homerun]

I know its crazy but I have a hankerin for using a secundus even though against Narn using one is kind of playing into their hands. Perhaps a similar tactic can work with an elutarian and sullust/prefect with a vorchan, maximus supporting the secundus on sweep to its flank. I just wnat to try using twin linked double damage weapons. Against hull 6 it won't be as bad but hull 5, that will hurt. My instincts say that another race not as tough would be more ideal.

Yes take Minbari

Very constructive monsiuer Howarth...


Anyway
Per Battle report in another thread the Tetrius is looking better and better. Maybe Tetrius, Dargan, Alterian/Elutarian, a Maximus & a Vorchan?
Use the Tetrius to move straight in. Elutarian hangs back & bombards, Max, Vorchan & Dargan come in on weak side?

I think I may have a cunning plan...

I have yet to play my wife again. I'm hoping for tomorrow, but we're hosting a party today, so it may not be until Tuesday

Well the battle became a test fight as Kathy bowed out.

Narn were 1 G'Quan, 1 T'Rann, 2 KaToc & 2 Thentus.

Centauri were 1 Tetrius, 1 Elutarian, 1 Vorchar, 1 Maximus, 2 Vorchan.

Vorchar got bonuses for winning initiative by re-roll for set-up. That allowed Centauri to overbalance against 1 Narn flank. It also helped in the action by using the scout action to allow the Tetrius to re-roll her Plasma Accelerators against the G'Quan, which scored some crits and probably cost the Narn the battle.

The T'Rann did well, outlasting the rest of the Narn fleet and crippled the Maximus while her fighters mauled one Vorchan and forced the Vorchar to run at maximum to get clear. 2 Goriath flights slowed, but did not kill the lone Sentri flight, who then died in a later 1 on 1 with a Frazi... :?:

Elutarian's torpedoes caused early crits on the G'Quan (rendering her immobile, and later the T'Rann weapons (4+ to fire) with her last shot killing a KaToc. Then a Thentus and fire from the T'Rann killed her.

The Tetrius was nasty, but weak in the flanks.

Concentrated fire from the Elutarian and the Tetrius with some criticals killed the G'Quan before she could be effective. The Vorchar's re-roll turned a 2 hit Plasma salvo into 6 with 3 crits. Double damage reduced her to a wreak. After that, the Narn formation unraveled and the manuverable Centauri tore them up. 2 Frazi survived while the Centauri had 1 Vorchan (without guns, crippled and skeleton crew), the Vorchar (badly damaged and weapons offline (foward arc only really suffers that a lot) but not to a threshold), a crippled Maximus and a lightly damaged Tetrius.
