I omited Boba Mandalore since he is an Epic and can only Be used against other epics. I chose Mercenary because of how easily he can mesh into other factions and do really well. My personal favourite being New Republic

Mercenary Commander. Great CE, awesome damage dealer, and fantastic sculpt.

I think Boba MC is the best Boba right now.

I think Tint is wrong. I think Boba Merc is the best after this most recent vset. I challenge Tint to a pillow fight using stinky dog bedding.

I think Merc has been the best since his release. While Merc Commander is a good pieces, I don't know that he's as useful, namely because his faction limitations. Even with the growing power of the mando's since the VSETS, I'd say that the boosts provided to the mandos don't necessarily boost Merc Commander, and his cost for access to accurate shot seems to be better spent on cheaper commanders or more mando scouts.

That being said, I think Boba Merc, while a solid piece, just isn't that solid by todays standards. I am honestly surprised that we have gotten multiple Maras, Vaders, Mauls, Revans, and Ventresses, but not any new boba options other than epics and low cost filler. The new baby boba is alright, but I havent heard of anyone actually fielding him, and he's not the characters normal representation (who immediately thinks of episode 2 boba when they hear the name boba fett?). Sounds like we're overdue for a better representation of the fanboy favorite.

I did say "right now."

And I'll accept your challenge, but only if you wear a chicken costume.

Personally I'm a huge fan or Boba, Merc because 1) he is the only Boba I have. 2) I think he goes very well with Mirta Gev and Mandalore the Resurrector in the Mandos.

With the new Talon Karrde he can move 12 squares (Talon's CE + Boba's Intuition) before the first activation then double cunning for 80.

Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?

A: To avoid getting hit with stinky dog bedding.

That is also a great use. I have to try out that version as well.

In Mandos you can get him to go 12 and do 160 with Mirta, Kelborn, the Captain, and Mandalore. (Double/Twin Cunning and Advantageous, in theory his attack would only be 2 less than with Talon if you can get Synergy with Mirta, but he might move too far from her with his flight.) It has worked out well for me the few times I've tried to play it. It is top heavy on cunning but everyone of them is a solid attacker which is really nice. (save maybe the captain, I've never had luck shooting with him)

I'm a retro kinda guy. I like RS boba Fett, he is simple, effective and appropriately costed. His full damage potential is limited if he moves. Base stats are appropriate to the boba or ROTJ.

--Sep bane--
58 Boba Fett, Mercenary
43 Cad Bane, Bounty Hunter
27 Lobot
20 General Whorm Loathsom
18 BX Commando Droid Spotter
12 Gha Nachkt
10 San Hill
12 Mouse Droid x6

(200pts. 13 activations)

I tried this with the Seps, didn't work as well as i'd like but 120-140 accurate is nothing to sniff at.

I guess you could put a second spotter on there and get 160 for a one hit wonder.

Excellent post. I couldn't agree more. I know you have to be careful designing a new piece and you are going to have complaints no matter how he turns out but as it stands now we have a situation where one of the most iconic Star Wars characters ever has essentially no place in the competitive game. I don't really care if none of the other Boba's ever get fielded in a squad again, they see basically zero play as is so it wouldn't be that big a deal imo.
