This is a very nice set, one of the best I've seen in a while. Nice work  I must ask, though: why does Vergere have 24 defense? I mean, I never read many of the NJO books, and I don't think she's better defensively than Darth Vader or GMLS. 22 would be better, IMO.

Vergere has not been shown to be a fighter, but she had a knack for survival. Without much in the way of defensive abilities, I thought the best way to portray her survivability was a very high defense. Additionally, her small stature and slight build would make her a small target and therefore difficult to hit.

Avoid Defeat might work better to show her survival skills (tho may not fit, I know very little about her), because 24 defense, to me, would only fit on like a 90 point Vader or other defensive juggernaut. Or (if this would fit the character), you could consider giving her Illusion and a defense of 21 or 22.

I'm also now considering a defense of 21-ish and giving her Evade. Or 20 with Evade and Illusion, although that combo may require an upward recosting. Thoughts?

Evade and Illusion might be a bit much. I think either def 21 and Evade, or def 20 and Illusion. Having both seems like double-dipping, to me.

I just had an idea and wanted some feedback. What if my Riina Kwaad and Tahiri Veila customs were printed on either side of the same card? Both would have a special ability such as...
Unstable Psyche (After initiative is determined, make a save of 11. On a failure, flip this card over. All Force Points and Damage remain.)
This would be a fun and unique way to display her split personality.

I will be working on all of these but first will be Jaina; her body came in the mail yesterday. Will upload pictures asap.  Hopefully WOTC will make some of these into real miniatures...

Sweet minis! WotC, to quote a great movie, "Are you watching closely?"

looks fun, Landos CE is great for droids, and the Experimantal weapon upgrade is a nice idea

Hey Sabersquad1, shouldn't Goran Beviin have Jedi Hunter in addition to Vong Hunter because of his general distrust/hate of Jedi? Also, what color is his mando armor? I am putting a miniature together for him and would like to know. Regards.

I thought about it, but opted to leave Jedi Hunter off as he worked closely with a jedi "back in the day" and also trained Jaina. I don't recall the color of his armor.

A few changes to note:
1. I developed the special ability Unstable Psyche for Tahiri Veila and Riina Kwaad. As a result, I've combined their stats onto 1 card (opposing sides) and freed up a set slot.
2. I've developed and included Vua Rapuung to fill the vacancy created as a result of #1.
3. I've tweaked the wording on Trakata.
