Fleet Build: 110SP

You are probably never going to be able to shoot first with those captain skills. You might lose 1-2 ships before you even get to fire.

I think you have to be very patient to set up the barrage of fire. Going in "joust formation" will cost you a ship, most likely. But if you know how to maneuver and get to the side or behind an opposing ship you could destroy a lot of stuff.

As someone who has seen the Barrage of Fire strategy work, you don't need to run more than one.

The captains to use for this are Koloth, Gowron, and 9 Skill Martok. That way you can up Barrage of fire to 10+ dice depending on the ships you use. Most Barrage strategies use a Negh'Var and 2 Vorchas, but I'd like to see the B'Rel Barrage work, so let us know how it does for you.

I agree, get rid of one barrage and use the points to get better captains. Also think about what you're going to do against a romulan build with interphase gens or a fed build with 2x9 skill captains. 2 fed ships can easily take out one of your ships, maybe even your negvar before you even shoot.

Thanks for all the feedback, guys.

I've only seen Barrage pulled off twice now and that was just one in the fleet build. I was curious if multiples off the card would be effective or not. I'll definitely take the feedback and modify the build.

I have only used the Ch'Tang for BoF. It is the best ship we currently have for that duty because of the built in reroll. I use Picard or LE Martok as captain. Picard is better, but you'll need Martok to stay faction pure. Last thing you need is a way to get Battle Station. Your command tokens will take care of that. I pair it with 2 Vor'Cha Class or 1 Vor'Cha and a Negh'Var Class. You'll want Gowron to get your BoF to 10 dice. This will cost you 94-96 with command tokens leaving you 14-16 points to work with. Three BoF would be possible but it would be difficult to get a Battle Station effect for all 3 of them let alone rerolls. Remember, if you fail to take out a ship with BoF you wasted 5 points because you could have achieved the same effect firing with 2 ships separately.

Just a little reminder to folks that the ships that help with the BoF do not get to add any plus numbers it's the printed primary ship damage(note that if a ship helps that is your flagship it does get the extra plus one from that)

It's still possible to get a BoF up to 10+ dice though.
