Elite Republic Commando - Scorch
Republic, 25pts

HP: 70
Def: 17
Att: +10
Dmg: 20

SAs:
Delta Squad (Counts as a character with Order 66 for the purposes of Commander Effects)
Double Attack (On his turn, this character can make 1 extra attack instead of moving)
Proximity Mines 20 (Replaces attacks: range 6; target enemy is mined until the end of its next turn. At the beginning of the mined character's next turn, the mined character and each character adjacent to that target take 20 damage; save 11 for 10 damage.)
Shatter Beam (Replaces attacks: sight; designate 1 door as open; it remains open for the rest of the skirmish and cannot be closed)
Rapport (This character costs 1 less when in the same squad as a character with Delta Squad)
Stealth (If this character has cover, he does not count as the nearest enemy for an attacker farther than 6 squares when choosing targets)

Just like the original, but better. He has Mines instead of Grenades, and Shatterbeam instead of satchel charge.

What is your opinion on adding Splash?

Can we name it Delta Shield Support 10?

Shields 2 was a huge factor in the clown-stomp PT result we had last night.

IMO, that would be ok. Perhaps DSS 1 would be better, as it refers to the level of Shields gained.

Also, I'm wondering what Delta Squad is for, just flavor?

I'm sorry, I went into it in other spots. But it is a minutae in the spelling that will not be caught.

Yeah, that was my fault. I thought these guys were Unique like Boss, and wanted to see them keep the nifty bonuses.

Trevor - this response is directed to all designers, not to you specifically.

First, the PT used the older stat block - Delta Squad was removed because it wasn't doing anything. If it is going to do something, it can't be the same as Omega, because these guys (or some anyway) went on to serve in the Empire. I don't care either way as long as I'm clear on what it is.

Secondly, and much more importantly IMO - we need to get to the bottom of this rarity vs uniqueness conundrum we have going on. The issue is with precedence in set distribution in general, and the people that play 'sealed' games outside of Gencon, and the tools people use to generate random boosters. (Bloomilk, Excel macros etc.)

These guys are all named like non-Uniques (Elite versions). The simple solution is make Boss a n/u rare and move on. The game has had non-Unique rares, but never uncommon Uniques. We can't have it both ways, so need to figure out how much making them all Rare will screw with the UC distribution in the random boosters, and with the customs that have already been completed.

For the record, I agree with them all being Unique like Omega, but the set was not planned out that way and we're well into it now. Boss was made R to balance out the distribution. (but that doesn't mean he has to be unique)

So, what do you all want to do here?

Man I am on both sides on this one.
1st I have always been design the piece the way it needs to be designed and not worry about the sealed stuff because it represents such a small amount of what is played compared to everything else.

However, I understand that the wheels are already in motion the for the sealed event at GenCon and the customizers are already hard at work and have completed some of the customs for this event.

So...I can see both sides. I am not sure what it would take to switch the gears on the GenCon sealed event to make all of these guys Rare Uniques. The costomizers should be making more of these since they are UC. However, I am not sure if that would throw off the numbers of the other UC in the set. We should talk to Jason and see what his opinion is on this and how it effects GenCon. IMO we should make them all unique and where the rarity is involved, the designers should not worry about it. Let the sealed guys worry about the numbers.

I agree with this. Especially the bolded part. My main issue is this: we should not let one event at Gencon have an adverse effect on the design of a piece; especially considering the precedent set with Omega Squad, these guys all need to be Unique.

And I'm a guy who loves the V-Set Sealed event, and will surely be playing in it this year...but it's one event.


And Dave, you're right about the Delta Squad indicator; my bad for somehow leaving that on. They should not have the Delta Squad indicator.

I totally get that point.

I'm just going to say that I am very much against having UC uniques. Whatever has to happen for Gencon is fine.

I'd like to hear from Jason though, because there might still a chance to make some adjustments, just depends. (I'm looking at non-Uniques in the subset as swap options)

I'll be on the road to Chicago shortly, but when I get a chance over the weekend I'll put some more thought into this. Or not as it may be...

I really don't like the Shields 2. However I haven't play tested it. I will look into this over the weekend. However, I know from personal experience that other characters with shields 2 tend to lean toward an NPE, then just Shields 1

I've seen Shields 2 on Commandos. Not an NPE at all. The fact that it had to be on a 30 pt stay in the back figure really hampered his squad. The new guys may change things, but I don't see it being too much of an issue.

Shields 2 is going to average out at 10dmg prevented per attack. That's not a bad thing when all the main pieces on the squad have 60/70hp. If someone is rolling really hot, then they'll obviously be preventing more damage...but that's really not much different from someone rolling well on Evade saves.

I think it's worth testing them again (with Shields 2, Heal 20) and seeing how they fare. Test against solid accurate shooters (maybe the new Boba, maybe Mandos with MtResurrector) or Force Sense to get around the Stealth...I think it's in those matchups where they'll struggle the most. I'll tell you from the start that my primary targets against a squad like this will always be Fi (Traps, esp if I'm playing melee) and then Sev (Accurate Twin). When they lose the benefit of Stealth, they're hosed if they don't have some decent method of damage-prevention.

So the same moves as the other play test lead me to this

What if Scorch had and gave Advanced Shields 2 (When this character takes damage, make 2 saves; each roll of 6 reduces the damage dealt by 10)

it is still not as good as a straight up evade. these guys need something to make them last a bit longer. Damage reduction? Something.

Adv Shields 2 is a pretty big step up...it means that 20dmg attackers will often be nearly useless against these guys.

Shields 2 is better than Adv Shields 1, but I'm afraid that Adv Shields 2 might be too much. I think the answer is to make Fixer's healing more effective (see my suggestion in his thread).
