OK, so I'm having WAY too much fun building squads from this new set. I'm not sure what it is, but things just keep popping into my head.

Anyways, here's my latest (and BlooMilk is giving me fits today, so I haven't posted it there yet).

Luke's Landspeeder
Han Smuggler
Lobot
Princess Leia
General Rieekan
General Dodonna
Mouse Droid
Ugnaught Demolitionist

Basic Speedy Cannon/Smug Cannon style build, but using the Landspeeder instead. Everybody is raving about how good the Snowspeeder will be with Rieekan, but I think the Landspeeder can be just as brutal. It starts with more FPs and has higher HP to offset the lack of DR10. I also really like the fact that it's got Jedi Mind Trick, which helps out Han Smuggler a BUNCH. 8 base activations is decent, with up to 14 through Lobot, which is really great. Even with just the obligatory Human BG and 3 Ugos, you're looking at 12 activations with Dodonna, which is pretty solid, IMO. I can't wait to try this one out. I think it might have some trouble with attacks sticking or failing Evades (no Obi FS for Mettle re-rolls), but I'd like to at least give it a shot. I think it's got some nice tricks that Speedy Cannon doesn't have.

Force Alter will also come in handy for when shooters come in close and you miss the evade roll, forceing them to fire again, and hopefully evadeing.

No, if you decide to chance the Evade roll, then you are already agreeing that the attack hit. You can't go back and use Force Alter at that point. You could just use the FP to re-roll the Evade though.

Alter on the Landspeeder is actually best for forcing opponents to re-roll Crits. Like Boba BH or somebody who's doing a lot of damage (Juhani, Luke COTF, etc.).
