Ummmmm... I was wondering the same thing. I wonder if it is meant to represent Ganner taking on a bunch of foes at once so you can't enter squares even close to him.

:SPOILER ALERT: to the New Jedi Order books THis is taken from Wookipedia Shortly after the Yuuzhan Vong reformed the planet Coruscant into a new version of Yuuzhan'tar, the Yuuzhan Vong mythology was updated to include a Guardian of the Gate, known as the Ganner or the Jedi Giant, in reference to Ganner Rhysode's stand against the Yuuzhan Vong while protecting Jacen Solo.

That's all well and good. However, it seems odd to base a mini off of a character's legend versus the reality of that character. They saw him postumously as a giant, but he physically wasn't. I'm reserving further comment until I see the stats but initially it doesn't make much sense to make Ganner a Large base size piece.

It is an interesting choice to base something on the legend, but I'm not sure how I feel about it on first thought.

KJ?>dsdsf?kjjks'sjkds *That's my jaw hitting the keyboard* SIMPLY AMAZING! I am so excited to see all these remakes and guys. I am so glad that there is going to be Saba, Kenth, Tahiri (hopefully with Vong Affinity), and an Ewok boost (Chieftain)! I am also salivating with anticipation over Jango, Mandalore the Vindicated, Obi-Wan, Anikan Skywalker, and Darth Nihilus! Thanks for posting this swinefeld , and thanks for keeping this game alive V-Set designers and players alike!

There is Levitation, but I don't think that would be broken in the EDD formats which is where Epics are primarily played. Again, this is all contingent on the full stats which have yet to be revealed.

How many Vong abilities affect size? Ex. Medium or smaller? Just curious.

Perhaps his legend truly took on a life of its own, eliminating troublesome Unique persona issues. The Ganner & Ganner Rhysode EDD might just be the next big thing.

Large base so more Vong can swarm him. It will be fun.

Anakin Skywalker, the Chosen One - is he Imperial? If not, then I am kinda sad, only 3 imperial characters (not sure if Galen Marek from Epic 2 is imperial)
