Yes, the V-sets have already made a Borsk, but that character seems to mainly represent him at the time of his death, blowing up the Vong (especially since he's called "Chief of State). This guy is Borsk before his rise to supremacy in the New Republic. His movement breaker is very much a double-edged sword.

I don't believe in trying to reinvent the wheel, which ultimately is what this CCC, to me, is asking. Lots of different ways to make people stop/slow down and I think the most viable have already been done (or shot down because its too much of whatever.) Instead, I thought about what Factions have the best Breakers; Imps, Rebels (Surprise, the two most powerful factions) with everybody following in some order.

Now, if you Have to have something original, I can dig around in the archives for something else, but for whatever reason, when you said "Movement Breaker" I immediately thought of this guy ....



Mandalorian Loremaster







I made him around 5 years ago. The Mando's from the OR era were really into their lore regarding how to actually Be a Mandalorian; and if anyone would have that kind of power (other than a Mandalore and don't we already have too many of them?) I figured it'd be this guy .... and yes, his CE is just Dodonna's CE, but I figured a military faction should be perfect for dictating How a battle would proceed.

Hoth has 2 movement breaker opportunities.

The first is that he gives Army of Light Ambush.

The second is that at the end of his turn allies within 6 can move up to 3. Allies within 2 get the +2 attack and +2 defense bonus. So I thought it was kind of cool. Does make a different look than a Farfalla build, but can still be played with Bastila for the damage boost.

Decided to use the main Imperial character from The Truce at Bakura as my idea for a movement breaker:

Though he certainly makes a double-edged sword to play with as both you and your opponent can take advantage of his movement breaking ability.

Cool idea! Here is my idea to help the characters most in need of a movement breaker, huge droids:

It allows them to thematically break though doors and then respond to hits with aggressive advances and shots.

CHS, I like the changes to BitB, but was the CE always that way? Because it sounds like it would be pretty easy to trigger and not to mention it looks like it affects enemy targets primarily. Not sure how moving enemies around/into pits multiple times a round would affect game balance but maybe I'm just reading it wrong. I do really like the reserves/shield for theme reasons.

Oakel, I really like Lunge and the idea behind Blood Scent but there is something about having numbers consistent with normal speeds in the game for simplicities sake, 6, 12 and 18 to help game flow and allow players to quickly be able to calculate and remember a units movement. Mind you there are plenty of ways to break that movement but I think current design trends are around toning down outside of turn movements to help with ease of play. Pack Hunter and Synergy are great though!

Gandalf, I like the save on PM and it's a neat ability for movement breaking. A bit ability heavy but you know that and it's hard to trim this guy anymore while keeping your theme.

LB, very theme-heavy Sep piece. On further evaluation I think he's over-costed for what he does, as the CE will just get disrupted, reserves are a 5% chance and you're really only guaranteed a mild movement breaker plus atrociously fitting stats haha. So probably could have been in the 20s but I still really like everything here and if he Cost was dropped I think this guy is exactly one of two directions the Seps should be going.

Surf, Dodonna in Mandos eh? He is a very strong piece and I originally would have been against any sort of recreating of the power 11 characters m, but we are finally starting to get counters for out-activate and smash and their respective CEs/SAs so I think this guy would be alright now. Super simple which is great but not really new. Definitely balanced though.

Jen, a bit ability heavy but pretty solid version of Hoth. Everything looks good and works together well except you pretty much Out-classed/obsoleted The Revanchist's main trick. Also currently the OR is still dominating and top dog so not sure if they should also get a major movement breaker for their already deadly charging pieces.

Emperor, with the craziness of mouse/diplomat walls being a thing, and the already powerful Imperial Faction being tricky to add to without unbalancing it, you managed to strike a solid balance and create something genuinely new, exciting and game-altering that I really like. Great job.

Shmi, ok this guy is pretty cool, super simple, super thematic, and actually quite balanced. Great job.

Caedus, well done with a hard to create TLJ Luke. Good stuff. But also a joking -1 for no greenmilk reference hahaha.



Alright so great entries this week as per. Just wanted to shout out that we did hit Week 100! Congratulations to everyone who has been a part of it for so long and hope to keep it going to 200 and beyond. Some awesome creativity community here so let's keep it going.

Now to this week I have to narrow it down to the spirit of the contest which was to create pieces with new movement options to help a balance the meta, and to me the meta is Bastilla and to a lesser extent Talon. So what helps best in this day and age will be what gets my votes.

3rd LB, I do think this guy should cost a lot less but you did such a great job here helping classic Clone Strike Characters and balancing the lack of mobility droids have.

2nd Emperor, classic Legends lore and a powerful but balanced game-altering effect makes this guy really shine.

1st Caedus, you pulled off an amazing TLJ Luke and everyone hates having a piece swap/charge in and wipe the floor with a critical part of your team, and now for 25 points you can stop it once, and allow you to regroup your forces.
