Playing around with various 150 point ideas, as that's what we're running at the LGS tonight. Granted, we planned this 150 pointer thinking that Regionals/GenCon would be 150 again, and we'd get an early start, haha. But, it's been fun trying to come up with new ideas. I based this one on Deri's GenCon '09 winning squad.
http://www.bloomilk.com/Squads/View.aspx?ID=75811--Tempted Smuggler--
27 Ferus Olin
27 Han Solo, Smuggler
27 Luke Skywalker, Rebel Commando
20 Princess Leia
14 General Rieekan
9 General Dodonna
9 R2-D2 with Extended Sensor
8 Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi Spirit
3 Mouse Droid
6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2
(150pts. 11 activations)
Dropped Crix and the ERC for Ferus, another Ugo, and a Mouse Droid. So, loses a bit of the ranged potential, and more importantly, loses Disruptive, which I'm not 100% sold on. Thinking about going with Juno instead of R2 to get the Disruptive back in there. With the Ugos having Mobile from Rieekan, I'm not so worried about needing Override.
Still, I like the odds that this squad has against GOWK builds. Dodonna means that Dash/Rex would rarely get big shots against you, unless they win a lucky init (if I keep R2, he would help keep that from happening). Luke and Ferus can easily take on GOWK. Heck, Ferus can kill him with just a Leia attack with Precision, followed up by a Double with Dark Temptation. The Snowspeeder opponents could be a tad more challenging without the ERC to keep the Speeder at bay, but with the new Restricted map list, I think I could do OK as far as forcing the Speeder to get close.
The main thing I don't like about this build at the moment, is that I don't have a solid gambit-getter piece. Could drop a Mouse + Ugo to get a Caamasi, which would mesh nicely with either Luke's Stealth or Obi FS. But I like having the Mouse to help with Leia's CE, and one more door opener, so I figure I'll just work with gambit in other ways.
Trying to decide which map would be best for this one....without the Double Override that Deri's squad had, I don't think Train Station is the best bet. I'm thinking Ruined Base would still be good.
