hey all
just looking for a way to beat some mandos. a buddy of mine has mando ultimate, ordo, and a wack load of others that give commander effects so he is getting little guys with twin, and the big guys with 4-6 attacks. just looking for some suggestions on how to stop them, or just give them a good fight.
thanks

you want to be able to have some control over the game.
if he's outshooting you then probably doesn't have a whole
lot of points left for other stuff. you'll want door control,
one or more people with overide (which isn't hard between
lobot C.L.O. T3-M4 and the new R2-D2 as well as many others)
and probably some uggnaughts. what you probably want most in
this case though is dissruptive, which means NR and rebels are
the best factions to play. and if he has lots of commanders, then
his chracters are probably kinda bunched together, so force push
and force repulse. and your gonna want people with evade so you
have some deffense aggainst him. i would recommend a squad like:
luke hoth pilot and kota with some fillers.
kyle combat instructer, mara jade jedi, leia skywalker
and some other stuf.
you want to get a beefy dissruptive character in there to
stop him from owning, then beat him up with your other
characters.

Make sure you get some evade in there, General Wedge (NR) combined with Leia Skywalker to reroll those saves should do good.
Peace

You are not going to outshoot the Mandies; they are the deadliest mercenaries in the galaxy after all. A lot of people at the LGS have just tried to outgun the Mandies or rush 'em with melee pieces and neither strategy works. They have enough health to survive bum rushes and can tear apart big shooters in a jiffy, as you have probably seen. As Topher said, the faction's weakness is a shortage of tech pieces. Get some disruptive, door control, etc. on them and you have a massive advantage right there. For NR and Rebs, make sure to get Evade or Evade rerolls.
All this does not mean that Mandos suck, it just means that they are beatable. Play them against some conventional-thinking players and you can have some major success.

Try Cloaked Squad ... like commandos!
Or Try Mobile-Evade Squads.

My brother has used Lancer squads against Mandos and has Torn them apart the majority of the time.
I have done super stealth Storm Commandos and Scout troopers using Veers Hologram to get move them out of cover with Fire support mission, then my Commandos snipe them.

The easiest way to beat Mandos is to outactivate them and rush them afterthey have activated.
Standard Rebel Snow/Landspeeder squads are the easiest overall because they can run up and do 50 damage with a Princess Leia granted attack, perfect to take out Mando Scouts.
Ifyou want to take out Ordo just put in a high attack Accurate shot 20 damage piece with a Czerka to Jolt him. No Regen then, and you won't take 180 from him either.

thanks oh you dont beat them , they are like Durge, you must throw then into a sun to kill them. and prey that kills them!  Good mandalorian killers Are (I cant believe im even giving this away), is NR. simply for evades from wedge, double evade saves from Leia. Han Galactic Hero for greater mobile Cunning, Door control with Lobot, Jareal makes for a good evade/Parry mover. if you go after them with melee beatsticks, you can stick yer head between yer legs and kiss yer Arse goodbye, so that means no GMLS! seriously! you put him on the map, and hes public enemy no. 1. however, Mara Jade, Jedi, is an excellent piece vs. mandos. if she is in a squad with a BBSV and TBSV, she can do alot of damage with her LS assault/Twin from a distance, and she has Deadly att. so, the moral of the story, Greater mobility with power can make a Mando squad go runnin home cryin to their Mommies.

the way to beat mandos is if they are playing the standard canderous ordo 6 shots that kill everything squad.
1. Kill mouse droids. If those little guys are not running around they will have to expose their commanders.
2. Kill the captian. he is the most deadly piece in the faction and only 50 hp get rid of him.
3. make canderous move. if he's moving he's not 6 attacking you he's at best twinning.
4. kill everything besides canderous. I've played against this squad a lot and ive never beat it by going after canderous that guy is bad news ive seen him take down Sion and Bane by himself stay far away from him.

NR is a good Mando counter. You don't need the TBSV with Mara tho. She can move six and lightsaber assualt for four attacks. Kyle Katarn is a melee beat that could put a rain on a Mando parade. Especially with GMA, running six for 60 isn't so shabby. Give him evade for survivablity and the disruptive reduces the attacks the mandos can make. And who doesn't love mobiling with Katarn and chucking grenades? Dodonna to out activate them helps NR too.
