My votes:
1) Rakghoul Marauder (GG) - A heavy, durable rakghoul delivery system that can really pack a punch on the big targets, but painful screech in the right spot can trigger multiple rakghouls if your opponent leaves their ugnaughts out in the open and you can get adjacent to a few. Just love this one.
2) Vader, Jedi Killer (SR) - One tough dude, and imperial conscription is really cool. I also like that his cannon effect is twin
3) BL-Series Battle Legionaire (CC) Mandalorian droid? Yes please! Signal jammer is a neat ability, and really condenses a fight.
4) Sith Commando (CC) - Really cool do-it-all sort of guy in a faction that doesn't have much of these kind of pieces
5) Wookie Disgruntled Tribesperson (Koba) - That name is awesome, and its a cool piece that can really drop some damage.

For overall set, my vote is for CorellianComedian, nice overall booster!

Wowsers,
thanks for the feedback - this has been a fun contest - so when's the next one?
(I'll have to get realworld into gear and try and make minis hhehe)

@surf
I don't know what to say, Surf.
Go on, make the Flanker - I don't own SWMinis or the alphabet hehehe
(could a jawa jedi redo also be on the cards?, you've already made one, but no-one complain about more rare non-unique jedi)
I think for the Sith Commandant, I may have borrowed from some of your early stuff -or at least, it was an influence

@ all,
thanks for the feedback overall,
I am astounded that people tried Alek Squinquargesimus, and playtest report via inbox - it is a little raw,
and there were some "what the fudge?" moments from the wording on the test-powers... maybe a simplification and redo would make for a 'pre-darksider, republic generalissimo" Malak?
and especially on the wookie - it is a little overpowered an undercosted,
yet, it does a 'wookie' level of damage
and synergize with Yoda RotS and Tarful and some Chewbacca (hopefully also Zaalbar and Chundar, or MadClaws...)
the more fun part? with a name that is neutral, people can make any type of wookie figure to represent the piece - including underrepresented female wookies (chewbacca's family will be interesting to see, if they are in the disneyJJ canon)
the only female wookie in figures so far, is Wookie Scout RotS.
Tyvokka would be retcon to female (as per the 'what if' comics),
but a female wookie jedi would be awesome, female wookie scientist, or female wookie bartender.

Sorry for taking so long to reply; things've been kinda crazy for me. Do you want me to tally up all of the votes, or are each user's individual posts sufficient..?

Also, if there's enough interest, I can start a second contest within the next few days, whenever you all want. We could set the signup deadline to be the end of Saturday, and I could assign the pieces Sunday. (I probably won't include myself this time, though, for obvious reasons.) I think Legacy of the Force could be a good set this time, though I'm open to alternate suggestions.

@surf...
if staggered activation has taught us nothing,
its that staggered activation is awesome.
Simples, just up Darth's activations to 6, and give him "Ponderous Savage - must attack the closest highest value target"

or,
just leave the ability only?
Luke Skywalker Jedi Master, from Universe set, it was exceedingly tiny font...

(awesome though, thanks for sharing the statcard )

I agree completely, even if I don't always do it myself.


Anyway, I think I'll give until Saturday to sign up for the next round, and then I'll assign the boosters on Sunday (Legacy of the Force it is!), give about two weeks to finish the sets, or less if everyone finishes early, and then allow about three or four days for voting.
