"non-Unique Gamorrean, Quarren, Gran, Duros, Rodian, Nikto, Twi'lek, Weequay, or Bounty Hunter"

So part of the purpose of the restrictions on Immediate Reserves was to give a use to some of the less used pieces. But I forgot about the TBSV, which would probably render all the other options unused. Moving back to Reserves 15 or removing Twi'lek would eliminate that option. Or just do away with all this and make it non-unique Fringe.

Here's another version with a few tweaks.

Jabba the Hutt, Gangster

Cost: 60
HP: 120
Atk: 7
Def: 15
Dmg: 20
Unique, Melee Attack, Speed 2, Strong-Willed
Fringe Reinforcements 20
Immediate Jabba Reinforcements 15: If you roll an even number for initiative, you can add up to 15 points of non-Unique Thug, Smuggler, Scoundrel, Mercenary, Blaster-For-Hire, or Gamorrean characters to your squad, adjacent to this character, immediately before your first activation of the round.
Trap Door: Replaces Turn. Target adjacent enemy takes 50 damage and you place the enemy in either your opponent's starting area or your own starting area. Enemies with Flight or Force Leap may avoid this effect with a save of 11.
Taking Captives: Whenever an enemy would be defeated, you may instead place it adjacent to this character. The enemy gains Captive (Cannot be activated, cannot move, and does not count as a legal target. Its space cannot be entered, but it provides cover. If an ally ends its turn adjacent to this character, this character loses Captive, is considered activated, and regains full Hit Points.) If it would end the game and you did not use Taking Captives this round, at the end of the round you may defeat one enemy Captive and gain victory points equal to double its cost.
My Kind of Scum: Replaces turn, sight. Target Fringe enemy must roll a save. Add the enemy's cost. If the sum is less than 25 or if the roll is a natural 1, the enemy is considered activated and joins your squad for the rest of the skirmish.

Commander Effect:
If this character is targeted by a non-adjacent enemy, you may change the target to be a non-unique ally within 4 squares instead, even if that ally would not normally be a legal target. Allied Bounty Hunters gain +10 damage versus Unique enemies and may ignore enemies' cover when they are within 6 squares of that enemy.



Reinforcements during the game... like reserves but killing the reinforcements does not count toward victory points.

Thanks - any favorites/comments/criticisms? I wanted to see a Jabba that was thematic and could have an impact on the game (to be worth a high cost). The necessary slow speed is a pain, though. Taking Captives and the spawned thugs with enhanced "bodyguard" should make enemies come close, though.

I agree with Lord_Ball. If it's just non-Unique Fringe Followers, it'd work fine. Or, you could also include all of those characters with Rapport for Jabba. What happened with those characters? Wizards didn't print any characters with Jabba Rapport since before they screwed up the cards. Since Boutny Hutners, I think.
