Another big reason Veers (and to some extent Tarkin) weren't that great until later in the game was simply the move to 200pts. It's now more viable to fit them in your squad.

(And despite what people think - Veers sucked at 100, and was not great at 150. Just look at the regional winning and GenCon top 8 squads 2006-2009. None have veers.)

Where would one find a list of those squads?

Regionals didn't start until 2009, right? So they were 150 points in 2009 and 200 in 2010. The list of 2009 and 2010 Regional winners is here: http://www.bloomilk.com/Forums/default.aspx?g=posts&t=9647

That's a really good point about Veers not being effective at 100/150 points - makes lots of sense.

I count 10 or 12 (depending on if you count stormies as 1 or 3)

Stormie
Snowtrooper
Scout on Speeder
Veers
Tarkin
Palps
Rebel Trooper
R2
Twilek BG
Ewok

There are also plenty of others that are still playable but not top tier

^Since it goes up to 60, stormies have to be counted full then, so I would say 3.
