Yup, not exactly sure how good he'll be in a B&B army yet, but he does free up 23 points from Lord Vader.....Ooh wait....that's the same cost as a Shadow Guard....Hmm.....

Try LV B&B 150 + VA for a 200pt squad. Let LV do the work early, and the VA can collect fps. I think it has a lot of potential. |

Try LV B&B 150 + VA for a 200pt squad. Let LV do the work early, and the VA can collect fps. I think it has a lot of potential. That's a very solid way to use him. But in a 150 squad, I don't think he can replace a vader. He just is NOT reliable enough, with force defense and beatsticks that can easily survive his lightning. You won't have enough time to use his force powers more than once. He will probably be dead by then. He will only be able to go for the kill, or attempt to disable a beat. Of my orginal ideas, the first 5 are true. VA is amazing, although limited, because he can basically only do 2 things. attack, or use a force power. He is VERY COOL, but I wouldn't take LV out of a B&B squad anytime soon for VA. He is very interesting, but what we know about him thusfar may just be a part of the picture, because the new vader may have somthing that will influence his Apprentice, like dark master, I imagine. That would fit perfectly with his Apprentice. And now that we know what lightning X does, we can geuss that force grip 40 does the same thing, only ranged. So Vader will be the perfect grunt killer it seems. |

VA is good. Not amazing. His stun 16 is his best attribute which really helps thrawn against San. But use it once and then 4 rounds later.....? Nieche piece, not too strong. |
