Favourite Fleet composition at 5pt Raid

[Tank]

We have all done which of the fleets is our favourite but how many have a preferred fleet composition?

My favourite fleet is Early EA and at 5pt Raid is is currently made up of:

2 x Olympus Gunships
2 x Sagittarius
2 x Artemis
2 x Hyperion Rail
1 x Hyperion Command

My 3rd Age Fleet is primarily made up by:

1 x Omega
3 x Artemis
1 x Olympus
1 x Nova or Hyperion

Interesting fleet Tank. I had not realized that the Command Hyperion was moved down to Raid level for early EA. I might actually take it now.

With the Command Hyperion now at raid, I would likely have the following 5 raid early EA Fleet

2 Saggi
2 Olympus
4 Hermes

Everyone gets and Aurora Starfury who can carry one.

Then there is Vree with the following
2 Xill
4 Xeel

Seems lots of players like their fighters

 

[Ripple]

At least now I know what went wrong with the Bimith, the main voice doesn't play it! (joking...really...I am!)

Drazi fleet -

Firehawk, 2 Warbird, 2 Strikehawk, 2 Solarhawks, 2 Darkhawk
(if I know I'm up against a fighter heavy opponent the strikehawks become guardhawks and a wing of star snakes each. Firehawk becomes a Jumphawk if against another swam fleet along with another strikehawk)

Abbai fleet -

I would like it to be - 2 Bimith, 4 Milani, 1 shyarie, 3 Tiraca but that's suicide so basically if you want to win you take triggy's fleet at five raid or try to go up to Juyaca, Milani, 2 Brisaria maybe or Lakara, Bimith, 2 Milani, 2 Tiraca, 2 Brisaria. I'll see what floats.

Vorlons -

Destroyer, 4 Transports and 12 flights of fighters.

[Triggy]

At least now I know what went wrong with the Bimith, the main voice doesn't play it! (joking...really...I am!)

Sad to say the Bimith being what it is makes part of the reason why I don't play with it. The Abbai need initiative sinks and this is one way to do it. Ideally I'd take a single Bimith and drop four of the Patrol PL choices or even a Lakara for a Milani and six Bisarias/Tiracas but frankly the fleet is a little less effective with the current rules.

1 Avenger ( thinking of using old Olympus converted to look more like a carrier)
1 Hyperion
6 Rail Hyperions

My Centauri
1 Primus

2 Kutai
8 Flights of Sentri

 

[Abraxas]

I have't decided yet to keep the Cronos or not as they are weak ships
