This is my light side squad for a Force Unleashed VASSAL Release Tournament.

48 Vader's Apprentice, Redeemed
45 Luke's Snowspeeder
36 Yoda of Dagobah
30 Han Solo, Rogue
18 C-3PO and R2-D2
13 Rebel Trooper on Tauntaun
5 Caamasi Noble
5 Caamasi Noble
[200pts. 8 Activations]

The combination of Yoda of Dagobah, Han Solo Rogue, C-3PO and R2-D2, and the Rebel Trooper on Tauntaun do an effective job of "nerfing" opponents' Force powers, Initiative Control, and Commander Effects. It's risky to have so many points tied up in non-damage dealers, but the benefits seem worth it to me.

Damage output comes almost solely from Vader's Apprentice and Luke's Snowspeeder. (Together they make the snowplow).

It's a very defensive build, that probably won't win quickly. But it worked pretty well for me in my first game last night. Granted, that was against a Thrawn/Vader's Apprentice Unleashed squad that this was almost custom-tailored to nerf (sorry Havok).

What do you think?

This is somewhat similar to DarkLordVerjal's squad for the same tourney. He used Yoda and the Apprentice as well, but with Han Scoundrel and Leia for the other damage dealers. It's definitely not a bad combo. Don't forget to use Han's Accurate/Cunning when possible though. And I would watch out, in this particular tournament, for anyone running Vader Unleashed, as he might pick off your Tauntaun with Lightsaber Throw.
