There we go. I stripped my quoting Echo's correcting me about Daala, and my apology for missing the other two and ONLY posted the stats themselves. Yay, it worked. I'd better not type anymore or Bloomilk might not let this post show up either, since it seems to get angry at me when I make long posts now (glad it wasn't doing that when I was listing stats earlier today......)

.... ok looking at the cards I got yesterday (Thanks Engineer) its kind of eerie when I count out 24 pieces that I'd already made custom cards for over the years. Guess if you throw enough stuff at the walls something eventually sticks .... Cool Looking forward to trying these out.

Wow. This set does so many things right. I'm impressed. The designers have reached a new level of creativity.
Some of these pieces I have been wanting for years. Bravo. I'm looking forward to rolling the dice.

Cheers

Well the BHC characters were not in the set so I have removed them from post 1. As such this thread is finished. so please lock.

I will start a Vset 7 thread tomorrow. chance are the Beast Rider will be our first character to be listed, unless he gets held over for a later set. Happened before.

Im pretty sure we were promissed the sarlac in the next two sets (6 being the first and 7 being the second) so thats a good idea.

The new BHC cards will be officially released with Set 7, though they will be "spoiled" at Gencon.

So for now, they will be kept under wraps, but they are set up and waiting in the database.

As such I will add them to set 7, That is when the majority of members will get the cards. Not counting downloads.

On the plus side It gives something to add to the Vset 7 thread.

This is probably the best V-Set yet in my opinion, in terms of updating older pieces that needed to be updated (Wheel bike Grievous, Boga, Maul on speeder), and adding Unique pieces that should have been added in WotC's tenure (Cin Drallig), and making trooper squads viable, albeit not exactly competitive (Nothing will beat the Deathshot Naboo cheese.)

Great Job, team. This just increases my hopes that we'll see an updated Draco Antares and an actual Ganner Krieg in the next set!

Shame, also think this should be reconsidered. This Vset was only just covered this time round so you never know when the vsets are going to come to an end. Like a lot I hope they continue for a long time but that is not guaranteed.

Plus the beast is never going to see play until the rider comes out. Also personally I just think its wrong to do this with the vsets in the first place. Really they should come out in the same set, next set if and only if its necessary which should never really happen in a fan made product.

Still you are only passing on info, so I thank you for it, just disappointing to hear.

I think that's some kind of play on the fact that the piece isn't actually called "Beast Rider", rather it's "Beast Rider of Onderon".

I know its Beast Rider of Onderon, I just shortened it to beast rider as everyone who has the cards would know who it was in reference too. same as "flybe" everyone knows who it refers too.

Movie characters not yet represented:

Shmi Skywalker
Young Anakin
Jocasta Nu
Dexter Jettster
Owen Lars
Beru Lars
Chief Chirpa
Watto - CHECK (Vset 5)
Sebulba
Imperial Scanning Crew Member

EU Characters:
From Fatal Alliance:
Hex Droids (especially this one)
Eldon Ax
Darth Chratis
Ula Vii
Dao Stryver
Jet Nebula
Clunker
Larin Moxla
Shigar Konshi
Lema Xandret

From Fate of the Jedi:
Vestara Khai - CHECK
Sarasu Taalon
Abeloth (Uber Epic - perhaps 500 points?)
Natasi Daala - CHECK (but it's an earlier versoin, not the Fate of the Jedi NR version)
NR Lando

===
Not too bad, all things considered.
===
General categories of requested abilities...

More low cost tech (not attacking) options... nope. (But I already knew I'm outvoted on that one.)

"Goal" abilities with a bonus for reaching the opposing starting zone... nope.

New movement breakers and forms of activation control... Vehicle is definitely a new one. I like it - not so sure I like the Gallop/Strafe proliferation that comes with it... jury's still out on that one.
