Strategy: ‘

These are some crazy Jawas with some crazy tech. Herat + Utinni = Awesome. Kills control, and it also kills any drains your opponent may get on Tatooine. Its also helpful against HB decks that rely on retrieval with Kessel Run- Just use a Jawa and Dr. E on either starship, steal the utinni effect, and complete it yourself. Specific cards No Bargain Boosts Jawas forfiets early, raises deployment costs, and cancels revolution. Power Of The Hutt Gets out Bib and Jabbas Sail Barge. Very useful. Oppressive Enforcement Sense and Alter are extremely annoying. Herat Pulls Jawas and Utinnis, and makes Utinnis powerhouses. Also ability 3, so harder to kill. Wittin Gives Jawas +2 power and makes Jawa Pack awesome Nebit Adds a destiny and reduces attrition, what can I say? Mercenary Pilot Put him aboard any vehicle in this deck and get an extra battle destiny. Jawas Use up my opponents force pile if I want them to. Zuckuss/ Iggy/ 4-LOM 3 destinies, a capture, and a canceled game text. Dr. E Can kessel run and makes Dengar more effective. Dengar w/ Gun Kill 2 people per battle. Jabba Free Jawas, immunity to S+V. Mighty Jabba Adds battle destiny w/ Bib, Nebit, and Wittin, hard to kill. Bib For Flip side of Objective. Galid Gives your drains a boost. Utinni Kills Tatooine drains, Controls that hurt Sandwhirls, and Utinni Effects. Abyssian Ornament Pull Jawas, retrieve a max of 8. Twilek Pull your mad crazy effects. Wounded Wookie Cancel your opponents game text, clash of sabers, destinies, etc. Den Of Thieves More drain-cancelling power. Jawa Pack When used w/ Wittin, each adds 2 to the forfiet of your Jawas. S+V Free Jawas and retrieval. Reactor Terminal Put unused cards back. Sandwhirl Okay, this is TECH I start it at Jabbas Palace and move it away from there. Once it reachs the other end, it comes back. It gives me relatively unopposed drains for the most part. Hutt Influence Makes your drains unmodifiable, can be pulled by POTHutt, and lowers attrition. Sail Barge I can pull it from the beginning to get 2 activation from the passenger deck, and it also gets me through the heart of the desert. Sandcrawler Adds immunity to your Jawas. Racing Skiff Can react as a suprise. Especially suprising when reacting with a Jawa-uses an opponents force. Bossk in Bus Gets a destiny, good for invading planets. BFiS1 Has immunity and pretty good power. Lightsaber The only thing more fearsome than a Jawa deck is a Jawa deck with a lightsaber. Use it to boost your unopposed drains, and maybe even hit someone with it )

On to general strategies EBO Watch out when you deploy Tatooine, they get a drain of 4 when EBO is out. Load up the Bus and invade Hoth, early if you can, when you get set up if you cant. Drain to your full extent on Tatooine. Tough matchup because the decks are so different.

HB Another tough matchup. Just try to probe their base and put their objective out of play. Screw most of their retrieval with Utinni. Try to out-drain them.

RTP Send out your crew with Zuckuss, 4-LOM, and Iggy. Capture with Iggy if you can, or wipe her out with your high destiny. Sandstorms should help defend against any invasions.

MWYHL You should be able to load up the Bus and invade Dagobah. Dont forget you can put the Sail Barge on the Bus. Drain them, as well.

Profit You should rule over this deck between the Sandwhirls and the battling capabilities. No problem.

Agents In The Court Ah, your counterpart. Sandwhirls and no elom power bonus should give you the edge here. You should be able to out-battle them easily.

TIGIH One of the good things about this deck is no Imperials. That means no Elom power bonus, and no capturing Luke. 99% of TIGIH decks only run 1 Luke, so that means you can kill him and their deck is dead. No worries here.

RST Kill Madine ASAP. You should be able to out-drain them on Tatooine, and your Jawa engine rocks more than their scout engine. Not too big a problem.

Well, thats it. Dont forget you can retrieve Jawas when you flip, and Herat lets you pull all Jawas, not just the non-unique ones. Be constructive in your reviews. Thanx —Carson ‘
