Revan [88]
3xWookiee commando [9 each]
Lando Dashing Scoundrel [18]
Chadra-fan pickpocket [7]
2xWeequay Merc. [5 each]
Gran Raider [4]
Ugnaught

A squad I thought up to use Revan's awesome CE. Basic idea is to use the ability to move a wookiee close to the enemy, then charge in and hit the enemies hard. Strategies, tips, comments, etc. greatly appreciated as I am still new to the game and don't generally make 150 point squads.

We don't really know what Revan's going to be great with yet until we play him a lot more.

That having been said:

He'll probably work best with a secondary shooter, ie. Aurra Sing. Lando doesn't work here as well because of Opportunist. You'll move him into position, but then have to wait to shoot. Those with Cunning Attack will work better.

Working with Commandos is intriguing. I hadn't thought of that before, but it looks like it could be good. The problem will come when they are all dead.

Lose the Weequay Mercs. They're only good for themed squads.

Well, if you out-activate your opponent consistently, then you'd be able to move Lando out at the end of a round and hit someone with Opportunist, then move back into cover at the beginning of the next round with Revan's CE.

Honestly though, I think Jedi1972 is right. Cunning Attackers will probably work better with Revan overall, and I'd be worried that your squad doesn't have enough real punch to it. If the Wookiees or Weequays die to early, then Lando and the Pickpocket will never be getting their Opportunist attacks.

Oh yeah, and hose the Weequays. If you need 5 pt fillers, Jawas or Bespin Guards are better 100% of the time than Weequay Mercs. Poor Weequay Mercs.

Jawas are my 5 pointers of choice.

They are good regardless, but you never know when you will get a shot off on a Droid.
