Dooku of Serenno

Makashi states "When hit by a melee attack, this character takes no damage with a save of 11. Shii-Cho, Soresu, Ataru, and Niman Style cannot be used against this character."
No Soresu for you GOWK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the trackers have a higher damage output potential than the keldors, so I would keep them in. The only thing I might change is adding lobot, clo maybe. That way if you get that 11 initiative, you can bring in two keldors or trackers. Its not something you should count on, but at least lobot could help with a key init for the trackers and has that added door control.

The only vong in it is Nom!!!! Take him out and it can be anything you want!

It's not an opinion. Use nom to give Czerka Super stealth.

Yeah, switching a track for lobot straight up would probably be the easiest.

Still, they have to get close to shoot you (unless you leave them in the open) or melee you, which you can attack them at high attack/damage.

Well IMO you have several problems that I can see with the squad:

1) You rely on attacks for offense. Let's say you lose Init and GOWK goes first, you effectively about 60 points of Whipids who won't hit anything even with Twin because they need 15s in a GOWK that is in cover.

2) No BG for Nom. Only thing GOWK has to do is run straight after Nom with Tow, he can absorb attacks all day long on the way. The only semi direct damage you have is a Force Immune shot with Nom.


I would take out a Whipid for 2 Advance Agents and another Ugo/Mouse just to get Thud Bug in there, a 50/50 shot of stopping GOWK in his tracks could be huge.

And in general you have few ways of attaining first round gambit on most maps GOWK would show up on so you will have to go after him, not the other way around, and with that squad he can just avoid thw Whipids altogether and take out just points of extras like the Ugos and the Czerka.

11 activations also won't help vs standard GOWK builds for Positioning purposes either, getting figures into key spots up field when you have the same or even lower activations than some GOWK builds will mean you will be outpositioned in most cases as well.

In general, just squeeze some direct damage or semi direct damage in there (like the Scout).

I wouldn't say this squad has no way of defending itself, the super stealth aspect of this squad is its primary defense. Most vong with stealth have less defense and hit points so they all would be just as easy to kill as long as you got adjacent to them. The bonus of mighty swing helps with the adjacentcy.

I do agree that maybe two trackers, lobot clo, two vong scouts and a mouse or uggy would be good. The threat of activation maybe keep them a little farther, it prevents obi building more force and doing damage. Not too mention he can't reroll the thudbug from the vong.

allright thanks guys for all the input sounds like drop 2 trackers for lobot, two adv scouts and ug/mouse droid. Ill give that a whirl thats the info i was looking for cuz yea i didnt think it could stand up to a good gowk squad as it stood. In my local area we kinda have a gentalmens agreement to not realy use him. So i didnt know exactly how it would go, but were thinking of going to chicago. So we put one from on here together for testing
