Update Reinforcement Priority if Using Sith Fighter in Starting Lineup

It does seem like an odd way to fix a bug, by forcing everyone to use the same starting lineup or be subject to the bug anyway. I'm hoping this is just a temporary fix until they figure out how to fix it the right way

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the TM gain useless against Prof anyways?

You are not wrong, but sith fighter helps against other fleets that don't prevent TM gain. And against profundity, the foresight becomes increasingly annoying because you miss more frequently which slows down your download progress.

Fair.... I mean, I don't mind running Dagger, but they should really just hard code MK VI to come out second anyways....

This. Regardless of what ships we use (maybe I want to run it with Lando's MF....j/k) MK VI should just always reinforce second. I'm not sure why thats difficult for CG to do

Thanks CG for censoring the shorthand for "Millennium Falcon" lol. They can do that, so please actually fix MK VI/Levi

Sith Fighter starting is more for the mirror.

I doubt they'll change the reinforcement priority again. You'd be better off finding another ship that has a higher reinforcement priority.

From memory, Palp's shuttle will come out before mk6. It might need to be placed first in the reinforcements though.

that's not acceptable. do other capital ships have a forced lineup to use or you're affected by a bug? I don't want to use palps shuttle, and we shouldn't be forced to use any specific ships

Is there an accurate list of relative reinforcement priorities for all ships out there somewhere over the rainbow that can be shared?

It's not a bug. Manipulating the reinforcement priority is something that exists in some way for basically every fleet.

It's why you only really use 2 reinforcements on defense.

Like deliberately not putting a tank reinforcement for Nego to try and increase the chances for the AI to call Plo first.

There is.

I used SF against Prof 3 timed (by forgetting to change team after mirror matches) and that ship is first to die. I never had Dorito dying, but SF is dead before 1st reinforcement...
Is it really slowing something on defence? ?
(I haven't noticed any changes in how far I dropped with different starting teams)

Using SF vs Prof is really easy without having the ship destroyed if you

- just use basics with SF
- with Fury use 2nd special first
- mark B28 both times when sabotage hangars (first) and engines (second)
- call Darth Mauls ship first and stealth everyone except B28
- call MK6 second and instakill Y with basic

Everyone will survive, you don't need Tie Bomber to prevent assists, but until the reinforcement order is fixed, your fleet struggles more than necessary on defense :/

Or you know just go back to left to right reinforcement calling....

I think it's not really a bug, but how the reinforcement system is designed unfortunately. It'd require a massive overhaul to change it.

I don't love sith fighter's reinforcement bonus, it makes the ship weaker over the battle. I also prefer the extra bonuses it gives via unique ability from the start (foresight and TM gain)

But now that the mk 6 interceptor will reinforce first if sith fighter is in the starting line up, it won't snipe a ship and will die before getting enough stacks to snipe a ship on auto. It almost makes it better, if placing on defense, to not place it in the reinforcements.
