Here is the link: http://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/talkCast.jsp?masterId=63807&cmd=tcPreviews usually happen roughly 45 minutes into the show, but that can vary widely. Here are the stats: Imperial (26pts.) Kylo Ren HP 90 DEF 19 ATK 11 DAM 20 Special Abilities Unique. (Counts as Ben Solo) First Order; Melee Attack; Double Attack Crossguard Lightsaber [When an adjacent enemy makes a successful save against this character's attacks, it takes 10 damage. This damage cannot be prevented or redirected.] Dark Armor 2 [Whenever this character takes damage, make 2 saves, each needing 11; each success reduces the damage dealt by 10. Attacks with lightsabers ignore this special ability.] Torture 1 [When an adjacent living enemy takes damage from an attack by this character, it gets -1 Attack and -1 Defense for the rest of the skirmish. (This ability stacks.)] Force Powers Force 4 Force Choke 2 [Force 2, replaces attacks: range 6; Move target Large or smaller enemy adjacent to this character. That enemy takes 20 damage.] Mind Probe [Force 1: Once per round, before initiative is determined, if this character is adjacent to an enemy add +6 to your roll] Telekinesis [Force 2: When hit by an attack, this character takes no damage and cannot be targeted for the rest of this turn unless the attacker makes a save of 11] "I'll show them the power of the darkness." -Kylo Ren

Looks to be a good piece, palpatine on throne could be one of his best friends by the looks of it. Looking forward to playing him.

That Kylo Ren is probably one of the best designed pieces I've seen yet. Well done! I'm really looking forward to playing him!

Force choke only good against living? I don't think droids care if you choke them... . Tele is pretty amazing. Gives you the chance to stop some crazy triple twin beatdown. This isn't just for adjacent either so Boba with no reroll options might just have to avoid attacking him. He is going to play A LOT at 26 points. No CE means Vader of Lothal has a new battle buddy. Very cool addition to the Imps.

Very cool addition to the Imps. Lothal's Rival means I don't see a lot of synergy there, I see more use for Kylo in a swap squad, dealing 60 late damage.

I was thinking of a cheap easy fit to go with VoL and 100Palps. But you are right, Kylo is going to fit in all over the place. Thinking more on the rival, it wouldn't have mattered if Kylo had a CE since he's a force user. Would have actually been better if he did have one.

WOW! This is like Christmas! Except it's June! That is perfect! It summarizes everything really well - crossguard lightsaber is brilliant!

In testing I liked him best with VoL and 100Palps - he's a movement breaker for them with Force Choke, and he's robust enough to hang with them for a while. He's pretty flexible though - you can obviously play him with Daala or with Thrawn as well.

That flexibility is going to be awesome - just the fact that he exists will appeal to the newer Star Wars audience, plus the fact that he's a great throw-in beatstick for just about any good Imperial squad out there right now.
So, anyone think it would be worth pairing him with Thrawn and Ozzel for an end-of-round Choke, followed by a swap and a top-of-round Choke? Seems like cherry-picking a beat out of your opponent's ranks and dragging him 12 squares into your nest of blasters could be effective - or at least amazingly funny.

I Playtested both of these. they look like some changes were made. DarthP is an animal. No Djem so or or riposte against his is amazing. Chain lightning 4 is amazing but I did one test vs vong so I didn't get the fun of zapping people. You pretty much can't shoot him. The best thing to kill him is bugs. Super fun to use though.
the vong executor is a nice way to get people using unique vong. giving stealth and allowing an attack is pretty great.

Shrouded makes a lot of direct damage stuff tricky too.

I was trying to post from my phone last night....sorry for the broken English post. I see Shrouded is an add on from the piece I was given. The person that play tested this piece other than me must have had the same observation against bugs and flamethower, DarthP drops fast. Shrouded was a great addition but I hope it's not a measure that is going to be applied all over the place just to neutralize bugs. I guess his real weakness is melee damage which is good. If he had Parry or LS Defense/Block he would be unstoppable.
