All your bases are belong to us (enemy characters cannot score gambit points)
On a side note, this thread reminded me of the game Borderlands, which has legendary weapons that all have a flavor text that's a quote from a movie, and they do something in line with the quote.
Like, there's a revolver that's flavor text is "its a helluva thing, to kill a man" and it deals massive damage on a headshot.....so maybe we could take some pointers from that? Not necessarily looking for star wars quotes but ones releated to scifi culture altogether....

I was gonna go to the new York comicon dressed as a psycho but my friend decided that if I was "gonna run around new York city topless wearing a mask while carrying am axe and screaming time to play he'd give me $20 and leave me to find my own way home"

I was thinking of one earlier, but it seems rather situational:
"Many Bothans died to bring us this information":You must have a Bothan character in your squad to use this ability. A Bothan character in your squad is immediately defeated, save 19. As a result, all enemy Reserve Special Abilities are cancelled for the remainder of the skirmish.
I thought it might make good use of the Bothan Spy mini.
