That post would have been so much better if it had been written as a Haiku.

Rapport is useful, but not that game-breaking. It's a neat trick with lobot and zuckuss, and you can bring in the RS 4-lom. And queen amidala along with her CE makes various followers better. But, beyond that, it's not really noticible. So more of it? I suppose, but give it to some factions that need it, such as the sith and the new republic. ( rapport for troopers would be a welcome change. )

I would like to see a lot more synergy in the next few sets.

They need to be so careful with Rapport as well, make sure that they don't make a mistake somewhere. You can already have Wookie Freedom Fighters in Imperial squads, if they keep making more Rapports available how long before the faction rules are a mere inconvenience?

Synergy though I am all for


I think you mean affinity since that's what lets you bypass the faction rules. And Gree brings in the Wookiees with a CE.

You're right that they need to be careful, though, about that. With rapport, it doesn't make a huge difference right now and for the most part, it helps out characters that probably don't see much play anyway.

I'm hoping they bring rapport up another notch and we see more of the super rapport, but only to encourage certain themes and combos. Synergy is a great ability, and I would definitely like to see more of that. Both are great ways to get more out of older pieces as well, especially since players like myself are always going to make those pairings anyway - like Luminara and Barriss.

If you want to look at it another way with regards to Obi JM's CE and Anakin, there are times where Anakin just went off on his own anyway, despite his Master's warnings, which sometimes got him in trouble. So the CE would get disrupted in that manner... :wink:

Except the synergy usually has a range 6 on it, which still keeps that in mind. When he listens and stays close to Obi, he gets a bonus. When he is headstrong, he doesnt.

Yes or even somthing simular.
I think Named Masters and there Named Apprentice should have this. However i am taking new versions of these characters, not giving old versions new abilities as they were not costed into them.

Haikus are quit nice,
We need more synergy,
Rapport is good too.


There, a quality haiku.

I am all for Rapport. Not sure about synergy, but would be fine if either way.

As for Hiakus
I suck at trying
to write them

The second line of
Fang's Haiku only has six
syllables, to few.

I think it would be nice. It would definitely help convey some of the relationships between SW characters than there already has been.

Rapport doesn't have anything to do with faction jumping though. Gree's CE is what lets any Wookiee be in a squad with him. The Rapport SA just makes them cost 1 less.


My bad, I reviewed the cards and you are correct. I guess I dont have any worries over Rapport, just so long as there isn't too many similar rapport making figures "too cheap"


Too cheep would be bad yes. But i think a lot of older character cost a little too much and this is a way of making them more useful. I agree it should not be overused and a lot of character's just do not need it.

I'd like to see an upgraded General Grevious, Droid Commander with roughly the same stats and commander effect but better combat abilities and Rapport (allies whose name contains the words Battle Droid cost 1 less when in squad with General Grevious).

3 point Battle Droids with +12 double attack (Battle Droid Officer, Super Battle Droid Commander) would be sick. SICK!!@!

Well theres nothing wrong with Synergy, Rapport, or Affinity as long as it isn't over done.

Affinity is great for bringing characters across era but if they do it too much they may start believing that would be the way to do it and stop developing for specific factions like OR, Sith, NR. Not good.

Synergy is really cool for characters like master and apprentice. Would like to see a little more.

Rapport is handed out a little more liberally nowadays. While ok for bringing specific scenario characters together i think they need to focus more on faction specific troopers. Could be wrong.
