And I'd say Leia is perfect for Luke. Sure, his CE is nice, but I don't think most people will be playing him for that. Leia becomes a huge asset to Luke. You either go after her or watch Luke with free re-rolls.
Unless you have a limited way around Luke getting the CE, you clearly kill Leia first, or the mouse droid chasing him. Not only is Leia generally going to be easy points, but Luke actually offers very little protection for her if you run past him. In the squad posted, I see no reason for Cade of Wedge. Cade isn't going to get to heal (even easier points than Leia) and Wedge doesn't offer nearly enough benefit since 163pts of your squad are commanders. Drop them for something that can at least provide some reason for your opponent to think twice about just charging Leia first.
Kyp, Dash, Vong, etc are much better for this than Wedge and Cade.
Ummm, so who are you quoting there chief?
I still think Leia is a great add on for Luke. Sure, she is easier points, but that means you are turning your attention away from the 115 point piece. That's a win-win in my book. And if you go around Luke and provoke AoOs, that's two attacks for him.
As for running Wedge with Leia, I don't see that as too horrible. Wedge's Avoid Defeat does work with Leia's CE.
But yes, I do like Kyp over Cade. More offensive kick.
edit: BTW, I don't think it's fair to count Luke when you are adding up commanders. Sure he has a CE. However, that's to limit Luke from gaining access to follower CEs.
