R2D2, Savior of the Universe!

In all seriousness I'm hoping for a Revan and Rep Obi.

Rebel Lucky Han. Face it - in terms of canon, Han as a character couldn't possibly take on one of the big Force users. So a Han with a bunch of luck-based abilities. "Whoops - he tripped" - enemy can't move this round, save 11. Stuff like that.

Mando Boba Fett.

New Republic Twins... Jaina and Jacen with two figures but sharing a single activation. Each activation, move both but attack with only one - your choice. Enemy can attack either one to cause damage to the them. When defeated, whichever one was attacked is defeated and the other continues with full HP.

Old Republic Exile

Republic Anakin

Separatist Dooku

Vong - ???

Sith - Malak

Imperial - Thrawn. 140 point character made of mad commander effects to boost the 60-point partner.

+1. Epic in my book.

The surviving twin should gain some Impulsive type boost as well. Cool

Well is there still the chance we can confirm weather or not this is a 'Epic Vehicle' Set? If not I would assume these are mostly ranged guys, as opposed to last sets melee figures.

I feel that all vehicles should be epic... I mean, really, its pretty darn difficult for a guy with a gaffee stick to pose any threat against someone in an armored tank. I'm hoping this set really gives the huges some love. Even the most playable of the huges (viper, ani on reek, war droid) are by no means competitive. Once upon a time luke snow speeder was, but that too has fallen from grace.

That being said, If these are epic vehicles, that doesn't exactly help, as they are likely only legal for epic games, which means they don't really effect current meta.

Anyhow, if i'm not mistaken, Chewy in AT-ST is already 98% confirmed.

I doubt they'll do vehicles (sans snowspeeders and the other vehicles that already exist because of issues with "counts as" models. [Besides, I've never liked the idea of a snowspeeder flying down hallways shooting ppl, let alone an X-Wing or something.]


Now, that being said, I'll contradict myself immediately:

The Great Sarlaac! (counts as could be Knobby White Spider or an empty 3x3 Base).

Emplacement. Savage. Squares it occupies count as a pit for all other models (to give push squads some more options). Attacks don't do damage but "push" character toward the Sarlaac, Etc.



Darth Nihilus.
Jaina and Jacen, but on one 2x2 base together I think would be preferrable over two separate models on one card.

rebels - Old Ben Kenobi

republic - Epic Quigon

New Republic - Epic Luke skywalker (Slightly better Grand Master Luke)

Old Republic - Epic Revan

Sith - Epic Naga Sadow
Epic Nihilus (give me a reason to use this figure for once)

Seperatists - Epic Dooku
Epic Assaj

Empire - Epic Vaders Apprentice
Epic Roan Fel

Vong - Epic Warmaster

mandos - Epic Jango
Epic Boba

Fringe - Epic Aurra sing
Epic ig-88
epic Jabba :)

i really like th idea of more epic sith lords, plus they seem to fit the theme of a powerful bad guy that everyone has to team up against in order to defeat him.

I would absolutely love to see a fully loaded Epic Jango Fett, with all of the goodies.... Drool

Double/Twin Attack
GMA
Evade
Flight
Kamino Saberdart
Missiles 30
Flamethrower
Snare
Expert Bounty Hunter +8
Expert Jedi Hunter +4/+20

Seppy or Fringe don't rightly care, give me a reason to use the best sculpt in the game.

Honorable mention to an Epic Dooku & Aurra Sing. +1 to swinefeld...

Pure speculation but I have a hunch that they were saving Squirrelbacca for this set

Rebels- I would love to see an epic Han with some new cool luck abilities. But, I can't say I would be mad at an Epic General Ackbar With Discliplined Leader.....

Republic- Obi Wan should be the next 1 we get. But if were taking requests..... Kit Fisto? Plo Koon?

Imperial- I'm not much into the Thrawn idea.... I think Vaders Apprentice though, would be pretty sick. Some Epic Force Lightning with some sick synergy with Vader.

Seps- Grievous. I think a quad twinning Grievouse would be pretty nice with like Wheel Form.

New Republic- A K'Kruhk. Its far overdue for an epic version of this guy, and I think I can speak for most of the community when I say we want an excuse to use his pieces.

Old Republic- This is just a tough one. I'm split on wanting a combat worthy Lucien Drayy, or a Redeemed Revan Epic.

Fringe- This one is so broad and open. An Exiled Luke who can't be in an army with any one who is part of a faction. An Ig-88 Who would fit nicely with the new addition of the V-Set 4 one. There are always epic monsters. But I think Bounty Hunters are the way to go in this. Cad Bane, Bossk, IG-88, Calo Nord, or Cade Skywalker. Any of those would be fun to see.

Vong- I am not educated in this faction very well. But I would assume another Warmaster would be in line.

Mandos- Boba would be a fun one to see. But I'm sure there are plenty of Mandalores that are still out there. Mandalore the Preserver would be pretty sweet.

Sith- So many options. So I will just go with 3 of my favorites. In no order. Darth Caedus. Darth Plagueis. Naga Sadow.

maybe some Epic level Unleashed Force Powers?

Force Repulse 10 (Force 10, replaces turn; 100 damage to all characters within 10 squares, push back to 11 squares from this character. Huge and smaller characters ar considered activated this round, save 11)

and as much as i really like the Phantom menace, at some point i would like to see a non-lightsaber wielding emperor that can transfer his life force to a new host clone body when defeated:)

for me i would love to see:

Rebels: han or Obiwan could be cool

Republic: Obiwan(if not a rebel) or even an epic anakin

Separatists: Grievous or even a good Dooku, maybe even an assaj would work

Sith: Revan or scion or darth Krayt

Old Republic: My vote goes for Luccian Draay and possibly Satele Shan

MAndalorians: Jango Fett and mandalore the Ultimate on Basilisk

Vong: Tsavong lah?

New Republic: Corran Horn and Jaina Solo

Imperial: Joruus C'boath or even Vader's Apprentice

Fringe; Durge Bounty Hunter and boba

Difficult to think because of the Jedi V Sith mini set

OR/Sith - Revan. Rep Novel

Sith - Nihilus/Caedus/(60+ point Marka Ragnos, Sith Spirit would be epic!) Naga Sadow!!

Rep - A'Sharad Hett(Krayt Sith Affin)

Fringe - Lomi Plo? Sarlaac/Rancor, Aurra Sing would be epic!

Mando - Fett (maybe) Ulic hopefully!

Vong - one of the Lahs, maybe an Epic Shimrra puppet for omni?

Reb - Obi-wan, able to run interference on any Vader. Savage esq, character named Vader must target Obi-wan. Rep ANH! Ackbar, mamoth CE. Rep ROTJ

New- Saba Sebatyne Acting Grand Master!

Imp - Daala?


On the 2for1 idea, Maul cyborg & Savage?
+1 to the luckiest smuggler in the universe idea! If done well could be very fun.
