Finally hit top 50 in fleet arena, and I've been using the full Sith fleet. Starting lineup of Vader's TIE, B-28 Extinction Bomber, and Sith Fighter. Depending on the enemy fleet, I'll interchange Hound's Tooth with B-28 and call it in as first reinforcement.
Other reinforcements are Emperor's Shuttle, Darth Maul, and Boba (usually never gets called unless the battle goes super long).
It's surprising how strong the B-28 can be even at just 5* and the Sith Fighter/Concussion Mines go right through the Protection on Hound's Tooth.
Is anyone else running the Sith fleet with any success? I definitely don't see any Sith Fighters or B-28's in the top 50 on either of my accounts

Anyway, I have fighter and shuttle at 5* and will have bomber there shortly. Just out of ship credits to level it. Was planning on using it as D in GA.
How does it hold on D? Is your shuttle 5*?
a change is coming I can feel it..
I went from not playing ships at all, just sitting in the 200-300 range since they launched, starting and immediately retreating from battle just to get my dailies, to actually having a really good time and being able to climb to the 30s.
Feels like they're one more ship or a proper capital ship away from dominating
My shuttle is actually only 4*. Depending on how the fight is going, I use it as the third reinforcement behind B-28 or Scimitar.
I think it holds on defense great. I haven't done a fleet battle since Saturday and only dropped from 37 to 59, so I think people underestimate it
I mean, this is like saying "CLS, Han, Chewie, and Threepio is good, but nowhere near even mediocre Revan lineups." Of course it's not as good as the HMF lineups...the **** is the Revan of fleets. However, I can defeat HMF teams on occasion, though it's by no means a good fight to take...
Hoping.
I stay in top 20 and use a sith & empire fleet and am working on converting to it completely sith/ empire
Leviathan commanded by Darth Malak?
That is what I am hoping. I think Nihilus had a capital too. We Will see.
Currently its super easy to beat on offense.
I mean, the top 100 is ALL 7* Hound's Tooth and the top 30 is HMF fleets. I usually finish between 25 and 40. The only fleet I can't wreck is HMF, but I have beaten those fleets on occasion (maybe, one out of three times?)
Yes, this. The foresight is insane when the B28 is recovering protection as fast as it does.
