Hey all! Harryg here first apologizing for not reviewing pieces the past week or so. Also guys, if you have a suggestion for another review, please Bloomail me. Anyway,
General Grievous, Scourge of the Jedi
Separatist Cost: 63
HP: 130
Defense: 19
Attack: 11
Damage: 20
SA:
Unique
Melee Attack (Can attack only adjacent enemies)
Double Attack (On his turn, this character can make 1 extra attack instead of moving)
Cyborg (Counts as both a Droid and a non-Droid; living; subject to critical hits and commander effects)
Jedi Hunter (+4 Attack and +10 Damage against enemies with Force ratings)
Twin Attack (Whenever this character attacks, he makes 1 extra attack against the same target)
Commander Effect:
Droids are subject to this effect: Droid followers within 6 squares get +4 Attack and gain Extra Attack.
Alright stats are ok, attack is pretty low but that's ok. Melee and cyborg are obvious. Double/Twin give him some offensive capabilities, and Jedi Hunter gives him a 15 for 30 four times. His commander effect gives droid followers extra attack and a plus four. Ok, now let's get to the elephant in the room: why choose him over GGDAC? Well, it's situational: if you have a piece that can't get twin or already has it, scourge is a good option. Also, of you want double/twin, you also have Whorm loathsom. Combine that with the commando droid captain and you have triple twinning droids! Another boost is the BDO giving another attack boost of four. Now in higher point games, and Gha Nackt you have three point triple twinning battle droids with a 8 attack. Add a super battle droid commander for careful shot, and they have 12 attack. To summarize, Greivous scourge is a ok piece. He's relatively expensive and offers no defensive powers. However, when you want even more attacks than the usual droid squad or are running pieces who already have twin, he is a big asset. I rate him a 8/10.
Elite Commando Droid
Separatist Cost: 25 RM: Juggernaut War Droid
HP: 70
Defense: 18
Attack: 9
Damage: 20
SA:
Droid (Immune to critical hits; not subject to commander effects)
Melee Attack (Can attack only adjacent enemies)
Twin Attack (Whenever this character attacks, it makes 1 extra attack against the same target)
Evade (When hit by an attack from a nonadjacent enemy, this character takes no damage with a save of 11)
Grenades 30 (Replaces attacks: range 6; 30 damage to target and to each character adjacent to that target; save 11)
Satchel Charge (Replaces attacks: Designate 1 adjacent door as open; it remains open for the rest of the skirmish and cannot be closed)
Alright stats all looking balanced, and droid is there (duh). But then Melee?! Oh no! Don't worry he's still usable. Twin attack is nice, and right away makes him a candidate for Grievous scourge for double twin combo. Evade helps him survive as he closes in, grenades 30 gives him a range option, and satchel charge gives him door control. Right away the easiest way to use him is grievous scourge and a bdo for a 17 attack for 20 damage four times. a commando droid captain can give him triple twin. Another not as useful but still notable option is with durge on speeder. He can be good filler in those squads because he can get close quarters fighting. In conclusion, the elite commando droid is a decent separatist piece, but is usually overshadowed for non-Melee pieces with the same capabilities. I rate him a 7/10.

Why pego, my opinion not good enough? :)

Also, have all the reviews been Separatists so far?

I know I was just kidding. And no the first review Bothan spy was rebel and the leviathan was Sith. But At least I'm trying to review lesser used pieces first. Please send me pieces you want reviewed via Bloomail.

Well he is only 6 more. But in Gha squads that is three more mice/ two more battle droids so it can be crucial. and dac doesn't need whorm with him but needs a commando captain for double/twin. Like I said, it's situational.
