Just as a quick little fix, my last name is actually spelt Gordon (like the NASCAR driver w/ no relation).
Let me just say thank you to everyone who has kept this game going. There have been (and still are) some tough spots here and there, but as a community I think we're doing wonderful. I hope to see more people at Nationals next year. Thanks again and cheers!
Sincerely,
Ian

Sabers n Guns
Yoda on Kybuck
General Skywalker
Captain Rex
Captain Panaka
R2-D2, Astromech Droid
Mas Ameda
Spaarti Clone Trooper
Rodian Brute x6
Uggie x2
Map:Smugglers Base.
Dropped Dash and Lobot for Rex and swap fodder. Rex gives me the early round shooting I knew I would need. He can also close a game 100% better then dash can (he closed down 4 of my 6 wins in Swiss with early round shooting). I went 6-0 in Swiss and lost in the simis to the champ.

My good old 2 year old Yodabuck Maximum squad.
Yoda on Kybuck
General Skywalker
Dash Rendar
Captain Panaka
R2-AM
Mas
Lobot
Ugo
Gran
Map was Jedi Temple.
Went 5-2 overall, 5-1 in swiss finishing in second place because I lost to David in a mirror. Then lost to double lancer on Muunalist in a very close game to Urbanjedi in the first round of single elimination. All and all, a very good set of games, and perhaps the strongest field of players top to bottom we have ever had at the Championship.
I beat the following squads.
Mando Scout/ Echani Squad
Solo Charge - locked Mara in a turbolift :)
Bastilla, Cad Bane, Dash, Hoojix tank squad - really cool surprising squad by Rueben
Lost to David's Yodabuck/Rex
Imperial Handmaidens
Ian's Battle Masters
Lost to Urbanjedi's double lancer squad.

It varied. Against the double lancer I used Gammorean Bodygaurd and Salacious Crumb, against Solo Charge and a couple of others I brought 4 rodian brutes and an R7, against David I tried bringing in a Human BG, Salacious and a Gran (was a bad choice lol). Against the Mando Scout/Handmaiden squad I brought in a Twilick BG and 2 Rodians and a Gran. I think against Ian I brought the 4 Rodians and the R7 as well, although it might have been slightly different as I don't really remember. I also played the squad in the Mystery Map tournament (needed some practice) and I played against a Vong bomb squad where I brought a gran and a Rakghoul. In that game, I ended the game with 11 Raks on the table :). The only set I brought more than once was the 4 Brutes and the R7, but even that was a total of 3 games. Every other game I used something a little different depending on the match up and the possible maps I would be playing on.

Did anyone do well with a Republic Master Kota squad in the main championship? Apologies for the random question, but I want to know, because I have a bet on with another member of my playgroup.

for Jester007: any tryouts with Atton in for a JBM? (just curious, as that was a variation I was thinking about)

(just curious, as that was a variation I was thinking about) I did do some experimentations with Atton from KOTOR, but it just wasn't working out for me. I like his Double w/ Cunning and Jedi Hunter and giving him Twin from a Czerka, but he's just too fragile. He doesn't have Evade or Mobile or anything to protect himself other than maybe bodyguarding him. The new Atton though w/ the Klatoonian Captain may be the thing your looking for. The Captain will give him Speed 8 and Evade. The new Atton may not have the damage output of the older one, but the surrvivability will make up for that late game. Sincerely, Jester007
