I had created squads with girls only. Light side VS dark side. They were 150 point squads with any female character unique or non-unique.

--Teen Good Girl Squad--
47 Shaak Ti, Jedi Master
45 Mara Jade, Jedi
25 Leia Skywalker, Jedi Knight
17 Jedi Sentinel
15 Padmé Amidala

--Teen Bad Girl Squad--
53 Lumiya, the Dark Lady
43 Asajj Ventress, Separatist Assassin
19 Ayy Vida
17 Nightsister Sith Witch
14 Iktotchi Tech Specialist
3 Mouse Droid

She played light side and I played dark side. Right away I was able to do 90 damage to a clump of characters including Shaak Ti, Padme and Leia with the sith witch. (She knew about it - she used to use Sith witches all the time) Next round Ayy Vida was able to get a cunning poison attack on Padme. She choose to not bodyguard it - thus killing Padme.

After that Shaak Ti and Leia went to work finishing Avv Vida and the sith witch. The Tech specialist, didn't have much to do for tech so I used her to attack Leia, rolling a crit once and hitting again for 20. Leia was dead. Shaak Ti wrapped her up pretty easily.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the map, Lumiya and Asajj went up against Mara and the Jedi Sentinel. She won initiative and Mara made short work of Asajj (who didn't even get to make an attack).

Lumiya was able to get off a couple of attacks put not enough damage to kill any one yet. Next round she moved up Mara to finish off Lumiya. The Jedi Sentinel was adjacent by now. Mara did kill Lumiya and the 40 self destruct damage finished off the Jedi Sentinel. At this point she had Mara and Shaak Ti left to go after the mouse. Mousie didn't stand a chance.

We played on a half map. The game was quick but fun.

Yeah right. Back in the day, Rebel Storm thru Universe we played almost every night. She's pretty sick of it now. In fact, I promised her I'd quit buying minis after I completed the Rebel Storm set, 5 years ago.

My wife (very soon to be), showed up for a couple of tournaments to watch. Seeing the tough squads we play and how I play tounaments vs. how I have played her in the past, she's now too intimidated to play me. She also figured out that I've been taking it way easy on her. I'm afraid I may never play against her again unless we just break out scenarios.

I had the same problem with my wife, but under diff circumstances.
She was running BFBH and Lord Vader, I was running EPSL and Kriea.
Her BFBH rolled a 1 against my Palpy, the next inish I rolled a big D on her Vader......
the game was over in 8 minutes, and she hasn't played since. The worst part is that I was playing to lose, but sometimes the Dice just won't let you do that!

She did play one tournament before after bounty hunters was released. She played Vader, Jedi Hunter, RS Palpatine and two Sith Witches. She went 2-1 (lost to me, she wasn't too happy about that). But her first opponent whined very loudly about losing to a girl. He never showed after that.
