When I would get stuck, I would typically try another word or take one or two back out and look at the new options.

There are likely to be other words that may work as well or better. With all the pieces in the game, there are a lot of wording options to draw from.

I keep getting stuck at this:

You cant make "include" as there's no L.

Also, the fact that you can make the word Stormtrooper is interesting, even though it's most likely an unrelated coincidence.


And I forgot to add another quote:

I'll just say that among the various ponderings posted on this final SA, there are some words that belong.

All the letters are there for "contain"

"Your squad may contain..."

This stuff is usually beyond me, but I do hope that helps.

At least I was pretty much right about the cost. *sigh* That gives me, like, design cred, right? 'Cause I accurately costed the piece after just seeing part of it? BigGrin

I'll be checking my inbox for offers, gentlemen. Razz

Hmmm, so judging from the musings of Swinefeld, something like "Independent (Your squad may contain ... Separatist)" is near the mark.

I can get the following:

Independent (Your squad may contain a non Separatist commander)

With the following left over:e e e h h m n o o o r r t t t

Not sure if it's valid as I think it should be "non-Separatist" with a dash. Will keep working on it and let you know what I come up with.

Edit - Can also make:

Independent (Your squad may contain one non Separatist commander)

Leftovers: aeehhmoorrttt

For a slightly different take (which I feel may be a bit more likely):

Independent (Your squad may contain no other Separatist commander)

Leftovers: aeehmnnoortt

Well that does limit him a little more which makes sense for his power level. I think he will make Nimbus Commandos more competitive.

Notice the wording. I can think that him, San Hill, and either the Talz Chief (+4/10 to non-U's) or Jabba, CL work pretty well.
