Cards:

‘Start(6) Profit Tat JP JP AC Han The Signal Uh-Oh

Locations(6) Desert x2 Jabba’s Palace Entrance Cavern Tatooine Cantina Tatooine Hutt Canyon Tatooine Jawa Canyon

Characters(22) Artoo Aved Luun Ben Kenobi Jawa x14 Kalit Rennek See-Threepio Tessek Thedit

Effects(17) A Gift Bacta Tank x2 Bargaining Table Bo Shuda Do, Or Do Not Jawa Siesta x4 Mantellian Savrip Order To Engage Sandwhirl Traffic Control What’re You Tryin’ To Push On Us? Wise Advice Yarna d’al’ Gargan

Interrupts(9) Nabrun Leids Nar Shaddaa Wind Chimes x2 The Signal x2 You Will Take Me To Jabba Now x4

Strategy: ‘

Basic stratgy here is to use YWTMTJN to pull all of he necessary aliens. Then just spread and drain with the Jawas. Siestas boost their forfiet and the Tank/Savrip/Chimes makes for re-usable Jawas. I’m not ging to waste time explaining how to play vs. Huntdown, Court, etc. Use your imagination.

In response to the reviews

Dune Sea Sabacc isn’t in there because it would take too many slots to be effective. I’d need 3+ sabaccs, R’kik, and a way to stack destiny.

Sandwhirls are cool. Another probably wouldn’t be a bad idea. Note that it is a Mobile Effect so it can’t be cancelled by Alter, only by Control. There isn’t really any room for ships here. I could do two leaders + two claws. Then I’d need a Yoxgit, too. Just takes up too much room. Battle Order will slow me down, but not too much.

True, Profit doesn’t help me much, but it is better than TatJP + Careful Planning. Getting ten force back is cool.

One Kalit is enough in this deck. He can be fetched with YWTMTJN or Aved Lunn. He’s pretty safe at the Chamber Bo Shuda stops battles; Rennek stops attacks. If he should happen to get killed via Sniper or a seeker or something, he can always go to the Tank.
