No pieces in Star Wars Miniatures are banned from tournament play.

*Banned* isn't really the best term, as they were never allowed for standard tournaments to begin with. When they were created, they were specifically intended for Epic Duos format, and then an Epic 500pt format developed not long after.

Look in this forum under Rules Links - there is an Errata/Mini-Faq for each v-set, as well as links to the WotC stuff.


As far as the Floor Rules go, there are a couple items that are specific to sanctioned tournament play.

- Rigid is ignored.

- Boba Fett BH's Disintegration is ignored in Dynamic Duo format.


I can't think of anything else from memory at the moment.


The only other significant errata (meaning not just altering some card wording but actually removing stuff) are the recent changes to Admiral Daala and the Zygerrian Slaver.


There will be an updated complete Errata document issued in the not too distant future. (promises, promises Unsure )

There's also the change to initiative, where the person who activates first only activates one character on their first phase.

Though it's easy to see why that's overlooked as it was so popular, it quickly integrated itself into all levels of play.

General Obi-Wan Kenobi (GOWK) was banned for a time as his Soresu Style Mastery, when combined with Mettle, Master of the Force 2, Force Renewal, and his CE, absolutely destroyed the competitive meta reducing it down to GOWK, Anti-GOWK, and Anti-Anti-GOWK. Casual play wasn't as affected since they don't use time limits, as that was the main problem with GOWK: He was near-impossible to kill within an hour time limit. Soresu Style Mastery also got a tournament errata to only work on non-melee attacks.

Eventually, as the meta shifted and more counters/workarounds made their appearance, both the Ban on GOWK and the Errata for SSM were lifted.
