Strategy: '
Not very original , i ment. sorry )
Please take your time to read the strategy
I decided to make a good deck that could win against a good variety of decks.
I took my map and start looking...
First i sought out my objective.
Hmzz... , MWYHL is good but slow , Profit has problems against Freeze decks.Then Hidden Base.
Hey Hidden Base is a very solid objective that can even go force-D.
Now that my objective was chosen , what would i pick as starting effects?
*I decided to play on activation and beatdown.
So I needed at least Stagin Areas and Inserrection and maybe even Strike Planning to get a 2-0 and no admirals.But then i dindn’t have any place to put in Squadron Assignments.
So for the space addition , i had to look for a replacement.I looked at the space section.No other card was stronger then HOME I.So I decided to play just 2 of them and add some good stuff to protect him.
What would i pick as locations?
Endor for sure , since I played strike planning ( a good 2-0). A lot of people love the responsability of Command trick.So I decided to add a Hoth echo docking Bay.The other docking bay’s i selected where tatooine docking bay , to deploy Ben , the Endor Docking Bay , so when I deployed Home I to endor i can shuttle up and down , the Home I docking bay ( for activation). My eye fell also on the Home I War Room , home I -5 deploy and power +3.
Also i added dagobah system and yoda’s hut for Yoda ( attrition -2) and giving extra activation.
That’s enough
Now to select good characters.
Ben Kenobi can’t be missed in a good Mains and Toys , so I added him twice.Luke is also a good character , but witch version should I choose.The Jedi Knight is almighty , so I added him once , but I also added Luke , Rebel Scout , to take out Vader in a BHBM.Crix and General Solo where in to (Strike planning Pulls them).But Han with Heavy Blaster is also very good , so I decided to add him too.Leia EPP is great , having ability of 4 and being able to shoot AND adding a battle desiny with Han.Lando with Vibro-Ax is also a beater , being able to exlude a character , adding a battle desteny on Tatooine and being a SPY.Chewbacca, the loyal companion of Han couldn’t be forgotten .
I chose the Proctector , because he has armor and is able to cancel game text of characters of power <4 (eg.Janus Greatus , Boelo).
Yoda is neccecary for his hut , to add 2 immunity.
Harc Seff is a great character also , Reducing your opponents drains is very nice. Corran Horn seemed one of the best Refelction 2 characters , he has ability 4 , may break immunity is SPY and is power 5 vs spies and Bounty Hunters.
For that same matter i chose Orrimaarko ( ability 4 , win battle = lose 2 force) and Thaaws Khaa ( ab.4 , retrive a force in battles and power 6 vs aliens of ab >3.)I decided to play with a gift , so the best suited droid would be the Binary Droid (Thanx CLINT ), being able to switch off canceling targettings on him (eg Sniper).
I found that would be enough.
No to look at my red cards .
I needed some Senses to cancel all those killing interrupts , so I added 5, and 2 stackers to ensure I could win the Sense alter war )
Since i played so many docking bays , i added 2 fallen portals.I needed some extra desinies to add.So i put in a I Know and Slight Waepon malfunction.Some good destinies where also needed , so a omni box / Despêrate reach , and Transmission having a good destiny of 5 and being able to use to cancel cards or givning your opponents deck a good shuffle.Clash of Sabers was a very good card to , so i definatly should put in lightsabers too.Control/Tunnel vision was an excelent addition , since you can look in your force pile and take a card out or cancel sense alter or a force drain )
I needed a signal for my effects.
I added Honor ( because people don’t think it’s neccesary to put in no Escape), A gift ( wich is very usefull vs Alien decks , Draw their fire and Frozen assets are also very good cards.(BTW , deploy the frozen assets on table vs a freeze deck , it’s great),Traffic Control is a card you need to cut our handsize and help up your differential.That will do.
I still had 3 slots left . that was needed for the waepons.I put in a luke’s saber , because so many people try to get luke only 1 and to ben’s saber.
That’s it
Pfff , this deck is officialy off and ready for beatdown.
Start with pulling Endor and Home I DB + 2 generals.Deploy Crix to the DB.Second turn , you have 9-0
Get another DB (Hoth) and Dagobah + Yoda’s hutt.Get some reinforcements to Crix.Nex turn 14-2 + what your opponent gives you.Beat him down and if you have Falen portel , let him innitiate the battle.He will lose 1 or maybe 2 characters )Use this deck wise and you’ll probably win
Try it out , I’m sure you won’t be dissapointed.
BTW Thanx for reading it out
