With Recon, Separatists now have the highest chance of Reserves in the game.

Figured I'd put an army together to try and take advantage of that. Here's the base I came up with...

43 Wat Tambor, Techno Union Foreman
20 Whorm Loathsom
17 IG-86 Assassin Droid
17 IG-86 Assassin Droid
15 Lobot, Computer Liaison Officer
10 San Hill
9 Battle Droid Officer
8 R7 Astromech Droid
8 Battle Droid x2
3 Mouse Droid

I haven't had a chance to play this exact squad yet, but I have played a 200 point variant of it by adding the following:

32 B3 Ultra Battle Droid
12 Gha Nackt
10 Treadwell Droid
6 Rocket Battle Droid

I played very conservatively on Throne Room/Imperial Base against a squad that consisted of...

Boba Fett, BH
Cad Bane
Kreia
Han Solo in Stormtrooper Armor
Lobot

I managed to get a Reserves roll on almost every turn, beating the odds a bit, and bringing in more forces than I lost during the game. R7 and Lobot made a great combo, letting me initially open the middle doors, then use dual override to close a door while I waited out my opponent's activations, and reopen it to attack and get Recon.

The B3 made a great weapons platform, especially once it had the support of a Lab droid to repair any damage that it took.

I would seriously consider a T1 at some point if you're going to have the B3 in there. That way you can Lift the B3 around to get it's Triple/Twin easier.

Certainly looks like fun though!

Triple Twin Lifting is Cake.
