Ok i just built a squad & wanted to double check & make sure i did this right.
Basically i put Exar on a team with a bunch of Savage Creatures along with Sidholo & a Vac Wranngler, Now if i understand correct. If I wanted to give the savage figs renewal from sidholo, i would have to use the wrangler to take away Savage from them to get it right? Seeing as Sidholo only gives it to Allies, doesnt say anything about Savage Creatures.. Thanx for who answers.

Correct, you must use a Wrangler for them to get Force Points.

yea thats what i figured but i wanted to double check because i remember seeing people building squads on here using exar & savage creatures without a wrangler & then i thought that maybe there was an errata for SidoHolo's CE , so i knew that couldnt be right.
Thanx Jedi you helped me good buddy.All though you helped me out Sithborg & EmperorDragon are the best lol, i learned so much from Sithborg, he's tolerable to me & i dont know how the guy puts up with me but probably my favorite moderator on here. Emp is up there too though also. But now Jedi your a cool dude in my book as well my friend thanx..

Thanks for the kind words!
And I just went back and searched through the other squads with Exar + Sidious and you are correct, people don't know to put in the Varactyl. I think they get confused since Sidious is "Allies" and they think that trumps Savage. I did let them know about it, but it's probably too late already, lol.

Yea i figured i was right because i know the correct ruling on about 85% of the rules. Check out my squad when you get a chance under the squad builder section of the forums called Exar Of Hoth, you'll see what i mean when i put a wranggler in there.

The key timing issue is that you'll want to remove Savage to get them force points early and then return them to "Savage" to get Exar's bonus. They will retain any force points they got through the CE after becoming Savage again.

Anywho i plan mainly was this with it, keep everyone back for a few rounds with the wrangler there this way i can get all the savage atleast 2 or 3 fp's. & even let exar build up on his force points too for all the Tranfer essence & what not.but i know what you mean thanx for the input on it too klecser.

I know you intend it to be fun and not competitive per se, but I think it worth mentioning that you really need to be cautious about the "sit back and build force" strategy if you do ever play this in DCI. There just isn't much leeway anymore to spend any amount of time building force. Its probably just the difference between a two and three point victory and not a big deal, but something to think about. ;)

But thanx for answering & thanx everyone for answerin..
