Bib has rival for non-fringe characters so it will only be fringe followers that get hurt cartel.

Right. If a character switched sides with internal strife they'd get it too. And Rival is ignored for sealed, so Bib is more interesting in sealed that way, if anyone ever uses set 11 for sealed.

I really enjoy gma on jacen.
I don't like that he can move up to speed with reflexes. that is a lot more than a reflex.
does that movement grant an aoo?
digging the force cloaked with movement option on others turn, just don't think it has to be 6 squares.
I do think sith rage 2 is good because it costs 2 force and with renewal 1 will be limited.
I don't really understand satchel charge on his ce, but I like it because I hate doors.
also I enjoy limiting reinforcements.
I LOVE bib fortuna I love hutt cartel idea and can't wait to see what comes out from it

Stormtrooper TK-421
Why Aren't You at Your Post?
[When this character would be defeated by an enemy, instead of being defeated replace this character with a character named Luke Skywalker in Stormtrooper Armor. The new character is considered activated and joins the opponent's squad until the end of the skirmish.]
Sooo, since he isn't defeated, you don't lose points? and your opponent gets another attacker? or maybe a soon to be dead guy worth 17 pts. Hmmmmm.

Exactly. It's a risk. You're potentially giving your opponent a free piece, but in a race to 200 it's potentially a pretty good swing in your favor if you can kill Luke before he does any damage.

In my limited play testing (life) Jacen was brutal. Get hit for 20 or 40 move six towards the attacker, GMA, Sith rage 2 - 80 back at ya.

Jacen is another reason to bring direct damage. Retribution only comes for Attacks.

Haha oh man so much ranged hate. Can we finally get a Grievous with prideful for characters whose name contain Battle Droid and a CE identical to Veers granting droids that combine fire within 6 cannot have their attacks prevented or redirected

Bib is great.
The new trooper is crazy... trying to think if it's worth the point drop to give my opponent a free luke.

Starfleets could be used to establish a blockade around a planet to prevent supply vessels from coming and going. This piece will have a big impact I think. The limiting on being able to mice drop is huge, even with the recently fixed rapport rules where mice can't cost 2 anymore. In activation control squads they can't just rely on 6 more activations to get them their advantage when using Lobot. They may have to be forced to include them in their main build if this piece starts to see more play in the meta. Will be interesting to see how a fringe piece with Tactician +4 will be used, cause there are a lot of factions that can use that a lot.

I like that quote. Didn't know that about him. I'm guessing Ibegon might give him some extra attack. Not bad for 14 points.
The Chiss seems like it will help out a lot of builds. For barely an 8th of your squad build, it can really help negate your opponents pre-build options, and that +4 to init will be great. Especially see this working well with Talon. You negate the +3 attack with Talon's +4, but the defense boost and other functions seem worth the overrap.
