Text is too small to read most of them.

Sorry, the good PDF's I scanned didn't upload to Photobucket, so I had to try something else.

One thing I'm interested in is about the new Amidala. Based on a quick look, I'm thinking that Queen Amidala is more useful, even for a Republic squad that's specifically built around the Battle of Theed Set. Giving mobile and getting rapport for the Naboo Pilots and Troopers seems more useful than giving them Wall Climber, and the two pieces seem pretty similar otherwise? Or am I missing something - are there good reasons to use the new Amidala?

New Amidala has Double/Twin.

Thanks, SB! I'm looking forward to getting the cards, but this will tide me over until then. :)

Yeah, the text is small, but if you save the images and then increase the size, you should be able to read most/all. I just looked at the Old Rep and only had trouble with a little of Mount (on Thon), but not so much that I couldn't get the basics of it.

Highlights for me that we haven't seen yet:

Master Thon - looks totally fun. I can imagine a pretty fun team with him, new Atton Rand, Exile, and Bastila. I imagine he would take a while to take down without CEs, and he and Rand could do a lot of damage in the meantime with Extra Attack. Come to think of it, the old Atton Rand could be pretty useful as a mount option.

Carth Onasi - looks like a very good shooter. As noted on SHNN the other night, there's lots of potential for teams with Bastila, Rand, Carth, OR Senators, and melee support.

Darth Zannah - looks like a tank to try and take down, which is exactly the direction I think the Sith should go - they should all be tanks really, since they don't have tempo control or anything to counter it. I think you probably want to play Darth Bandon with her to up her damage a bit.

Sith Wrangler - brilliant idea. Gives new life to some of the old savage pieces.

HK-47 - fringe disruptive! I guess it's most easily going to find a home in the Seps, though, where it can get Twin?

Warmaster Nas Choka - Looks like a good commander to run with Nen Yim and a bunch of Jedi Hunters.

The sets look great. Kudos to those that designed and tested them. I do have issues with two pieces.

Darth Zannah: does SSM play as worded now or is it the errata version? If it's as worded, how is she any less abusive than GOWK? I didn't really have a problem with GOWK, but since others did I don't see how swapping Mettle for Bubble is all that much more balanced.

HK-47: mouse Droids are overused and therefore overvalued IMHO. A Fringe piece that gives them +4 Defense only amplifies the problem. Simply limiting the CE to Medium, or Medium and larger, pieces would have avoided the issue.

Other then that, great work! I especially like the long overdue attention given to the Pilot SA.

Call it a favor to those who don't agree with the tournament errata for SSM. In tournament play, she will work just like GOWK does now. In any other format, the players can choose what they want to do with it.

It does and it doesn't. Non-sep squads that utilize Gha/Lobot for activations, are not going to be able to afford this guy just for a +4. This does much more than increase mice. It's also not the end. Droids need love outside of the Sep faction, and we will give them some over time - this is a first step. Like it or not, mice are a part of the game, and they always will be. There are plenty of things that deal with them in the game already, and many more things coming. We cannot attempt to remove every possible CE/SA that could affect mice in every possible way, it's just not a realistic goal. Doing so would end up with very convoluted and complicated rules. Your suggestion would add an entire line to the CE, simply to limit mice. But then, mice already get this in the Sep faction, so you are also making this a less useful CE overall at the same time. Would I liked to have seen mice with a 14 defense and evade? Yep, but WotC went with 20d to represent the difficulty of hitting one. That's what we have, we have to deal with it. We have already decided not to allow them to ever get a major way to do damage, and that alone has required some pretty complicated designs. Once you actually start to look at squads, it's pretty hard to abuse this at all. We saw nothing in playtesting that showed a problem with 24d mice - mainly because the game already has plenty of it. All we did was begin to offer droids something outside of the Sep faction. Look for more of the over the next few years.

Is that Tactician -4 on Gunray?
