I don't remember all of the nity gritty, but it uses targeting rules except for line of sight and it's within 12. I think it damages and activates a character... But I could be wrong.

Yea, but I like her all the same. Thank you!

Please tell me there is a save required for this force power to activate you. It seems way to good to me that a figure can automatically activate someone. A save of 16 at least gives the opponent a chance.

There is a save of 11.

Presence of the Dark Side is the really interesting one to me on Ommin. That is some swarm hate right there. Hiding in gambit out of sight makes it tough to avoid getting within 6. On Tomb of the Acolytes, for example, there are only about a half dozen squares where you can shoot him from more than 6 away if he is in the right spot in gambit.

Oh yeah Ommin is really good with the better gambit and he is pretty nasty against Swarms, but just not Daala's 20 hp Snowtroopers, but 10 hp grunts got to avoid him like the plague. Plus with MotF 2 he can cast Sith Magic upto two times (if you got 6 force points lying around) so you can really try to stop a piece thats going to come beariling on in. Then throw a Bolt of Hatred on top of that! (if you can see the target) Lots of saves, including Illusion and Lightning 3 (with it's own stunning effect) so I think his best Friend has gotta be Exar Kun, Dark Force Spirit, especailly since Exar will cost less with Rapport and can Start adjacent thanks to Summon. Now thats Nasty!

"failed you save, failed your save... Gimme some more of that 10 point gambit goodness!"



I believe so

Big +1. I was really upset when I found out we were re-doing THE SAME republic commandos again, except as uniques. Especially since Yayax squad was already needed badly (I mean it already says it on Kal Skirata's card from V-set TWO for the love of god!) When it was decided to redo Omega instead my head almost exploded.

There are actually more remakes in this set than any other set to date. So happy days for the people that like remakes, disappointment for those who actually like new characters being represented. (I do recognize that there are actually a lot of people who enjoy remakes).

All that aside - there are a lot of fun pieces in this set. I really think overall there was a lot of creativity, and restraint in creating balance. No Zygerrian Slaver or Daala Ooops in this set.

Props to Scott for leading the charge on making a new variety of Mandos! Stand and fight! (I'd prefer a straight fight to all this sneaking around.) It gives Mandos an option outside of twin.

Lots of new Black Sun Options, New Boba is going to be a new top tier toy (and meant to be), and overall a lot of FUN characters.

I really love Villie - fun fitting stats for a great Star Wars universe character with tons of personality.

Blizz's bag of tricks will be great to use over many different factions.

Getting an NR R2-D2 is great to see, and a useful new SA to boot!


Can't wait to see what new squads people build!

Not a silver bullet against Snowtroopers, but he'll still hurt them a lot, especially with Exar. Half the time, they'll only get off one attack before dying the Presence of the Dark Side if Exar's around. They don't even have to be attacked. And to get their one attack to hit they will have to make an Illusion save - again with Exar there. He's definitely a scissors piece.

chances are they have paelleon so they wont have to make the illusion save most likely. but anything that remotely works against daala is a plus for me.
