So I was working on a couple of new ideas for my 150 point Purple nurple squads, and I became very indesive over the inclusion of Gree or the new Merumeru. Mind you if this was 200 it would be Merumeru all the way. When supported by Merumeru and Yoda GM, WEW's can have a +20 attack (the math, 9 base, +3 from YGM, +4 from CQF, and +4 from Momentum) for 40 damage (20 base, +10 for charging, +10 for Momentum), from 1 square away, or base. With Gree they are a point cheaper, and top out at a +16, for melee not bad at all, the last Vader we have has a +16 base attack. But I almost feel that at 150, Gree is still the better option, after all he's cheaper and a mobile shooter, and he leaves enough points for R2 and leaves 18 points for Lando, or a TBSV or the new Boma Greenback. And Boma isn't neccesariolly to shabby with R2 having sucha target on him all the time.
So my thoughts, Merumeru is the better piece for a 200 point game, but if going for 150 the points matter and Gree is on the ball. However, if you don't plan to run Yoda, you could run Tarfull and Merumeru together (for 9 points more than YGM, 64 over the 55) but you do lose yoda and what he brings. That could also be nasty pairing right there, thats a +21 attack, wowsa
