A movement breaker for spotters. Something like this:
Coordinated Movement: Replaces turn, move up to three lower cost followers within 6 squares up to their speed. This movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity.
This would go on a character of cost 10 or so, so that it couldn't be used to move around big attackers.
Or something more targeted.
Commander Effect on a "Scout Group Leader" or something: At the end of this character's turn, move up to two characters with Spotter up to their speed. This movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity.

Probably has been said already:
CE - Non-unique followers whose names contain Assassin gain Assassin. (make it ranged if need be)
Might boost a couple figs a bit too much for their cost, but would help some unplayable minis (looking at you Gotal), and seems appropriate in general.

Nice. The ones who would abuse it most are droids, who wouldn't gain from it. Ventress would get a nice boost, but she's not in the meta right now anyway (despite the high bloomilk ratings). The Geno could deal a 70 damage attack with Bandon or Bastila's help. (Or more with help from the seldom-used fringe commanders.) Elite Sith Assassin with a 60dmg attack (20+rage+assassin+cunning+bandon) might get him some play.

Alright, how about a new Zayne, Gryph, Jarael, That pink lady i cant remmember her name...perhaps something more powerful with good force. A Sith/OR Armourer, that says: Trooper allies with 10hp when hit with an attack may make a save 11 for no damage Also I know it might be a little early, but perhaps the four main classes from the SWTOR games would be GREAT aditions for the OR and Sith. Elite Bounty Hunter, Sith Agent, Elite Sith Inquisitor, Sith Warrior, Elite Consular, Elite Knight, Elite Smuggler, Elite Trooper. All cost 30 or 35 pts, and possibly even have unique. more later. for now I gotta finish a chemistry lab report

Like a lot of people have been asking for I'd like an NR Mon Mothma, an NR Chewie, and a new an NR Leia could be interesting. ...And while I really like the NR C3P-O and R2 duo a single of each for the NR would be nice as well. I love all of the new generics they are adding to the NR though, so that is great as well. They needed some good ones
And I would go crazy for an NR K'Kruhk! Other Updates Biggs Darklighter Rebel Wedge A New Rebel Obi-Wan
Some characters that haven't been made yet: Lowbacca Jerec (any Remnant Empire stuff could be interesting) Xanatos Ganner Krieg Darth Wyyrlok Bantha Rawk aka Nat Skywalker I think a Dark Side Luke would be interesting Jan Ors AT-TE (Someone mentioned that earlier in the thread and I had been thinking of that earlier in the week, how cool it would be to have something like that)

I'm sure this has been covered before but I've wondered about what would help the Mando's compete in the meta. Would some kind of Mas/Yammosk type SA work for the Mando's or would that create issues? Heck, I'm not even sure that's really what they need.

I really like this idea! But I would make it replace turn, and I would also increase the points to 20 or more. That way you increase the risk/reward factor. I can imagine a clone trooper taking a moment to disengage from combat and attempt to radio for help. Or perhaps, a flimsy commander could have it. I mean, do you really think old man Dodonna would be in involved in combat??? I doubt it. He would probably run for cover then try to call for support.

Yeah, but that defeats the whole purpose of what I was requesting... something that replaces movement.

If any mandalorian piece would have a meta ability it'd have to be a Cassus Fett as he was the only true tactician amoung mandalorians....maybe give him a mando spin on booming voice, call it helmet comm and make it double the range of ces but also make them immune to disruptive as every mando has his officer yelling in his ear haha He'd have to have master tactician for sure, if he didn't I'd personally hunt down who designed him

What about a radio operator piece with fire support mission?
Or even a trooper type carrying recon probes (like the scout troopers in the first battlefront) could be represented by that ability......question there would be cost.

Listen to the 9/15 Sith Holo News Network (Episode 88) mp3 download is now available (presumably through iTunes as well, I don't use it) Not quite that sweeping, but something helpful for spreading CEs.

Really really Like this, but that might be because I'm such a big fan of Bothan Commandos. Really neat idea. Though instead of Rapport I believe you mean Affinity.

They do the exact same thing, so unless a replaces movement ability is going to prevent the use of "if this character doesn't move"/"instead of moving" abilities it's rather pointless considering there is already a standard for "replaces movement abilities".
