gah, page break, so copied quote Quote:No commas is making this really difficult. Is the wording for Ambush correct as stated? The glossary starts with "This character..." which makes the difference between a capital T and a capital C for remaining abilities. We have 12 capitals left for 3 abilities (and only one full stop, so we can't have 2 sentences in one), so either there's more to the CE or he has a bunch of abilities with long names.
You make some good observations. Ambush is correct as written per the card. The period? It has a special place. This is definitely a very full card. I think it barely all fit, even with undefined abilities. Something about the CE seems a bit silly, don't you think?

[/b]  Fringe guys don't need I.O. I didn't confirm that in a guess back a few pages because of a pesky spelling error. Letters matter. Or I'm a jerk. Or both.  edit: plus, it came around a flurry of other CE guesses that were correct, fixing it would have been too much at once. I really thought someone would notice the odd interaction sooner.

The Big Part of Whati am wondering about is the Y. I do not know of any known abillity that has one in use that would fit this character. Unless of course there is something i dont know about him...

Master Tactician  Figuring out where the Y goes will take some imagination. I left a couple other indirect hints over the last page or two. If you can spot them and catch the context, you might get rid of some more stuff to narrow things down. Pesky stuff, things in their proper place and all that. Signing off for the night. Good luck!

I do not know off hand what other abillities do sometimes go undefined, but since i am at work i have less access than most.

Well, I've gotten no further with my next guess, but I figure I may as well post with the full stop in place to get that confirmed!
I was thinking of an ability which could be the opposite of bravado (given the comments made a couple of pages back by swinefeld, and that he killed a lot of padawans) but we appear to be one w short of spelling out such an ability (cannot spell out the phrase "with a lower point cost").

Big Y is probably a new SA or a new part of the CE.

I'll give it a bit more time. Mid-30s piece with decent damage output against Force users. (on the move if he gets the drop on someone) Gives his minions access to Fringe CEs, but it doesn't do much for him. Nimbus guys can double on the move. Should he be better? Should he make his squad even better? What else could he have that would tie in nicely with what is there? (someone had the right idea earlier, but wrong SA) And, it all needs to balance out in the end. Time to think creatively.
