So, having decided to give scum a go, I got the most wanted box, slave 1, and a mist hunter, and had a first draft of a list done up for the upcoming week, I was hoping for some advice on it.
Zuckuss, Adaptability, Mist Hunter title, Tractor Beam-29 Points
Boba, slave 1, cluster missiles, shield upgrade, push the limit, gunner- 55 points
Black Sun Soldier, hot shot blaster- 16 points.

The main idea is to have Zuckuss either get in someone's face to hit them with some reasonable firepower while Boba takes a good amount of damage, or have Zuckuss Tractor Beam ships to make them easier targets for Boba to damage, the z-95 is there to dish out a little extra damage and get in the way mostly

I'd tweak the list like this

Boba Fett (Firespray-31). Adaptability, Dengar,, Glitterstim

I think Dengar is a safer, albeit more limited options over PTL as the Firespray whilst having a nice dial is very limited on Greens, the Glitterstim is pretty much a must if you intend to go tangling with things at R1, yes it stress' but its worth it

Zuckuss (G-1A Starfighter)
Adaptability, 4-LOM; Fire-Control System

I really don't like the Title as it doesn't play well with his Pilot ability, I think FCS and 4-Lom are a better choice as it allows you to use his ability freely

Binayre Pirate Z-95 Headhunter x 2

The trusty little Z''s that could, yes they are PS1 rather than PS3, but I don't think that current makes much difference, and as ever with filler ships no / minimum upgrades is the way

I don't own Dengar, FCS, or glitterstim

Fair enough PTL is still a viable replacement, just means you need to plan a move or two ahead, and for some reason I thought stim came in the Most Wanted box not sure on a replacement

Unfortunately it doesn't, if it did it would be on Boba in a heartbeat. I thought it did as well

Ndru with VI and homing missiles is 22 points well spent given your options (in place of the Black Sun Soldier). To make up the points I'd drop cluster missiles and the shield upgrade on Boba. That leaves you an additional point to put 4LOM on Zuckuss.

I hope you enjoy your entry into Scum & Villainy. They're my favourite faction by some margin.

If I may suggest another purchase in the near future? The YV-666 is a sound investment. And will net you Glitterstim. As well as a slew of other cards. You'll have a full party bus with that under your belt.

Just proxy the cards. There's no reason to give up on using upgrades you want when you can print a copy of everything from a list builder and have a better list.
