I was playing around with the idea with Darth Vader, Sith Apprentice.
--Jedi Purge--
46 Darth Vader, Sith Apprentice
32 Thrawn (Mitth'raw'nuruodo)
22 Imperial Governor Tarkin
18 Arden Lyn
45 501st Legion Clone Commander x3
11 Moff Morlish Veed
8 Mas Amedda
12 Rodian Brute x4
6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2
(200pts. 15 activations)
I just played a game a little while ago against a Thrawn Swap with Vader,SotJ and got destroyed. I took a whole new look at Vaders with riposte and found out that the new Darth Vader, SA has riposte and Djem So much to my amazement (don't know how that skipped me when I first saw him
) He makes an excellent swap piece not only because he can Tripple Attack thanks to Moff Tarkin (something Vader, SotJ couldn't do) but he also gives you the chance to bring in some other weapons that I discovered were quite devestating. For 15pts, 501st Legion Clone Commanders have Twin attack, 50 HP, 16 def and 10 attack. Add in that they are commanders and thus get an extra attack from Tarkin. They also recieve Cunning attack from Vader. So in the end you have 15pt peices that can always attack at +14 attack for a total of 80 dmg and are Yobuck proof and Lancer safe. Arden Lyn is another peice I am very pleased with. People don't realize just how much damage she can take, and she makes for a perfect swap peice for Vader. Not to mention, she is a good deterent to Yobuck also with her twin opportunist. I decided to go with Moff Veed because he gives me the option to activate 1 or 2 minis each turn. I really hate situations where I have Ozzel and can't activate people I want to, so I'm opting to go with Veed who btw also gets an extra attack and opportunist making him an effective scrub killer. He can of course be switched out for Ozzel, and I may decide to do that latter on. But for now Veed seems to be a good choice.
What do you guys think? Any suggestions on improving the squad to kill even more jedi?
