He is not jaw dropping, but he is cost effective, the Mandos need a lower cost piece, and here he is.

I bet you he sees way more Game Time then Mando Jedi Hunter

The only problem I have with Jedi hunter is that he has twin attack, which, for the most part, only commanders have (except for the Mandalorian Commander, I think). Frankly, I run Captains all the time and would have prefered a cheaper Jedi Hunter.

Or have the Jedi Hunter give a CE.

Matter of perspective. Only the Mandalorian Commander doesn't have Twin Attack, though he has double.

To me, since I normally plan on using the Captains (it just seems redundant to me for him to have it) and the fact he has a unique ability at his cost that should be a CE. Oh well.

Any way, sorry to get off topic. Back to the Taung Warrior.

I'm not terribly impressed. There are some nice things about he Taung, but a lot is to be desired. For 8 points you get 40hp and a paltry 14 defense. He won't last a round against twin attackers, heck Cad Bane has a shot at hitting his attacks on this guy.

Sure he can run and swip with twin and momentum and charging depending on which Mando CE's are boosting him but I just don't see it helping more than the warrior, who is worthless as well. I think for a mando he just doesn't cut it, is he as bad as a DeathWatch Raider? Um no, but unless you are using him as a meat sheild/Ulic Bodyguard I don't see this cat getting a lot of tabletop time.

So good things;
He's a Mando (great CE's just for Mandos)
Inexpensive for the faction (A far sight cheaper in fact)
40 hp (A great HP to cost ratio, only beaten by Jagged Fel)
20 Damage base (not uncommon and for a mando almost a requirement)
Cleave (gimmicky and often unused due to smart spacing by an opponent. But helpful in those circumstances where it can be used, so not a bad thing)

Bad things:
14 Defense (on a melee non-fringe based fig. a faction with only 1 stat boosting CE's to speak of)
40hp (only 14 D, it wont last long)
+6 attack (Needs more help then he is worth to be effective at defeating anything other than scrubs, granted for his cost a +6 isn't bad, but it still won't help him hit anything of value on the opposing factions team.)

I can't say no to 8 point body guards. That brings Ulic back into peoples squad building, if you ask me. They arent threats, they are super Mandalorian Gran Raiders IMO.

Ok. So far it seems that most people feel it's a great Mandalorian for Ulic to bring for the Sith as a body guard. Not too bad, since they can soak up some hits.
