OK. So; like many people say; GMLS is waaay overcosted for what he does. Sure; he's not fragile (haha); but hes obsolete in the sense that he takes up over half your squad and shooters can bring him down somewhat easily. So; heres my version of the recosted and re-abilitated GMLS. I hope its not broken or anything...:

Grand Master Luke Skywalker V2
=======
Cost: 115
HP: 150
DEF: 23
ATK: +19
Special Affects
Unique; Melee Attack; Triple Attack; Twin Attack; Affinity (Characters named Youngling may be in this characters squad)
Djem So Style Mastery
Lightsaber Duelist

Force Powers
Force 3; Renewal 2; MotF 2
Lightsaber Defense (Force 1; When hit by attack; takes no dmg save 11)
[bForce Defense[/b] (Force 3; Cancel FP used by character within 6 squares)
Master Speed (Force 1; move +6 squares on his turn)
Force Spirit 6 (When this character is defeated; choose one unique ally with a force rating. That ally gains 6 FPs and can spend force +1 times per turn)
Jedi Mind Trick 2 (Force 2; usable only on this characters turn. Range 6; target is considered activated and cannot make attacks of opportunity; save 16)

Commander Effect
Allies within 6 squares with a force rating gain Force Renewal 1 and +2 ATK/DEF.

So; wha do you guys think? i think is finally makes GMLS playable and finally worthy to be worth over half your squad.

Comments/Questions are always appreciated. :)

So because GMLS is overcosted you made him more expensive?

I don't like electric judgment. I don't think that fits Luke when he was ranked as a Grand Master. Everything else looks good to me. Maybe add lightsaber reflect (all damage) and add he can redirect it to any enemy character within 6.

ooh. i like that idea. And you're right. I might take out electric judgment and make his cost more in the 105-110 ish range

For 5 more points, you made him broken.
The Electric Judgement, the extra stats on his FR1 CE, LS Duelist, Jedi Mind trick. FS 6, affinity....I mean, you are looking at a point cost of ATLEAST 150 pts....which is insane.
In all honesty, he looks good on paper, but if you put him in a fight against an entire squad, he simply will not die, which in turn, makes him broken.
I dont think GMLS is broken by any means nor do I think he is over costed.
People are afraid to run GMLS because he is so expensive and they dont want to lose out on the other cheaper options to replace him. Me? I love GMLS, hes my 2nd fave mini.

The problem with GMLS was never that he was overcosted, just that his cost was prohibitive to building a competitive squad because of constraints with activations and such. For 115 points, you get 150 HP (which should be higher, in my opinion, but that's not the point), highest defense in the game, highest attack in the game, Triple, Twin, and Djem So Mastery among all the other things he has.

It's just that, when you invest that many points in one figure, you make yourself very vulnerable because when he dies, you likely don't have anyone left in your squad who can clean up. In games with higher point values he would be better, but the meta as it currently is just hasn't been designed that way.

My issue with him is that he does 40 damage on the move. a 26 point Jedi Weapon Master does the exact same damage on the move that luke does. Even with Ganner Luke is just too slow to catch shooters before he dies.
