Vima Sunrider 33
Old Republic 5/45
HP: 100
Def: 20
Atk: 11
Dam: 20
Special Abilities
Unique. Melee Attack; Twin Attack
Affinity [A character named Ulic Qel-Droma may be in your squad regardless of faction]
Agile [This character can move 2 extra squares at the end of her turn]
Charging Assault [Replaces turn: Can move up to double speed, then make an attack against an adjacent enemy]
Loner [+4 Attack if no allies are within 6 squares]
Sokan [This character ignores Rigged Detonators. When this character is in a square with low objects, enemies automatically fail saves against this character's attacks and abilities.]
Stable Footing [Not slowed by difficult terrain or low objects]
Synergy +2 [+2 Attack and +2 Defense while an ally whose name contains Thon or Odan-Urr is within 6 squares]
Force Powers
Force 2. Force Renewal 1
Knight Speed [Force 1: This character can move 4 extra squares on her turn as part of her move]
Lightsaber Deflect [Force 1: When hit by a nonmelee attack, this character takes no damage with a save of 11] Vima is a deep strike threat. Very deep strike. With Knight Speed and Charging Assault, she can run 16 squares. With Stable Footing, terrain won't slow her down. She has Twin Attack and ABM gets her to 60 Damage on her deep strike. Loner puts her at a solid +15 Attack. Depending on placement and the availability of Low Objects, her attack may be very hard to avoid due to Sokan. Like many of the pieces in this set, she has some shooter defense (Deflect) but is completely vulnerable to other Melee Attack pieces with no melee defense at all.

Friday's Preview:
Bib Fortuna, Majordomo
Cost: 20
Fringe 32/45
HP: 50
Def: 13
Atk: 4
Dmg: 10
Special Abilities
Unique. Hutt Cartel; Melee Attack
Camaraderie [Followers gain Hutt Cartel]
Death Strike [+10 Damage against an enemy that is adjacent to an allied character]
Rapport [A character whose name contains Jabba costs 8 less when in the same squad as this character]
Rival [Cannot be in a squad with any non-Fringe characters or a character named Talon Karrde, Information Broker]
Specialization [Hutt Cartel allies with a printed Damage rating greater than 0 gain Death Strike and Close Quarters Fighting (+4 Attack against adjacent enemies). Ignore this ability if any ally counts as having the same name as another ally.]
Commander Effect
An ally whose name contains Jabba gains Forward Positioning [Set up anywhere on your half of the battle map].
If a Hutt Cartel ally doesn't move on its turn, a Medium or smaller Hutt Cartel ally adjacent to it can move up to its speed.
===
The lynchpin to a Hutt Cartel squad. +4/+10 if you meet the right conditions. A movement breaker that takes some careful planning to optimize. Recall that Pote Snitkin gives Hutt Cartel allies Overload.

Why is Colonel Jacen Solo a commander.....  Shevu could have done great things with Jacen if he could have gave him an extra attack. --New Jacen-- 45 Colonel Jacen Solo 28 Captain Shevu 30 Vergere 22 Ben Skywalker, Jedi 17 Galactic Alliance Officer 34 Galactic Alliance Special Guard x2 13 Czerka Scientist 8 R7 Astromech Droid 3 Mouse Droid Vergere gives Jacen crabs, GA officer gives flak vest. Ben can't be hit very easily at this point. The scientist feels like a waste, but I like having GA SGs shooting 4 times with opporutinist and backlash at +12 for 20 damage. I can't wait to try some of this stuff!

Jacen is a beast! And looks like a ton of fun. Bib is cool too but kind of weird that he makes all followers Hutt cartel and not just fringe. I guess Jedi, Sith, Vong and Droids are only so loyal haha
