Well that is kind of tough to say. The stats for them were just released yesterday so it remains to be seen if they are good, bad or somewhere in between. I'm sure the playtesters could shed some light since they have been using them far longer than the general populace, but I'd give it another or week or two before deciding to go with them.
They look interesting, but the verdict is still out. I'm planning on doing a 5 point raid game against 3rd age EA to see how well they do. I suspect the 6 ship per squadron rule will benefit them greatly.
