This squad looks pretty fragile and it indeed is. I won a 6 player tournament with it yesterday though. I faced 3 Snowspeeder squads and lost map roll everytime. Against one of them I lost because I made a stupid mistake leaving Ozzel in LOS. It was actually the easiest match-up against a 7 activations Snowspeeder squad with double Override. But brainfarting with Ozzel cost me the game.

In total this squad won against 3 Snowspeeder squads and probably would have won against a 4th, if it wasn't for me making stupid mistakes.

Nym will be swapped into position after my opponent is outactivated (I can bring up to 17 minis to the table). He then takes care of any CEs in 6 squares. For Rieekan builds this means no Evade anymore. With a whooping 40 dmg a pop Nym can take down the Snowspeeder pretty easily as well as Han or Leia. Recon helps me winning init. So far in 5 games I rolled 3 1s for init and Nym saved my butt everytime. A Lord Vader squad would have probably been smashed by then.

Keeping an eye on the activations is crucial since they are the only way to keep Nym safe. Against a Yobuck/Gungan squad I used 2 Twi'lek Bodyguards to survive the Galopping attack, so Lobot makes the squad very flexible when it comes to reacting to the enemy squad. Usually I bring Wicket and 4 Ugs though. If I am way ahead on activations and my opponent plays def tanks, I can choose to take an Astromech for further lowering of enemy def, so Nym can hit with his meager +10/+14 attack.

At 200 points you can easily take out 2 Grans for Wicket and add Nyna, IG Tarkin (triple for Nym) and 2 Dignitaries.

The squad is a very good Speeder counter, but has to be played VERY carefully. Nothing for the "ONWARD!" type of player.

nice squad. i just came up with a legendeary squad based around Boba, BH.

--The Exiled Fett--
62 Boba Fett, BH
49 The Jedi Exile
18 Twi'lek Black Sun Vigo
15 Lobot, Computer Liasons Officer
03 Mouse Droid
03 Mouse Droid
(150 point squad, 6 activation)

Boba get's greater mobile and shoots with 4 attacks.
I love this squad.

I would think about replacing Lobot with IG Tarkin, I know this might hurt you in the activations department, but giving Nym extra attack could be pretty sick.

Thats probably a 200 point thing. I don"t think you can risk being out activated with Nym at 150.

Exactly. He has no defensive options whatsoever (you can't rely on his 17 def, 100 hps nor Disruptive). The only way to keep him alive is to swap at the end of turn, deal dmg, win init and swap to safety or deliver the death blow (which can be tricky, too, because he has only +10 att). The scrubs are nice interrupters though, since they get Opportunist for the AOO.

At 200 I tried him with Tarkin, but that is too weak with only 1 beatstick. I use Vader SOTJ as a secondary beatstick and an Ug to replace 2 Grans. That works pretty well against most squads.

I'll give you some credit for this squad. It is a sleeper. Your only the 2nd person to beat my Yobuck/Rex swap when it's played on ROTS Starship.

You've played it enough to where your good with it. That is the key to all squads. If you make no mistakes with this squad. It can contend with the best of squads. *thumbsup*
