Strategy: ‘

Activate fast and deploy like mad to let your party begin. Your space power dance is surprising to opponent. Has anti-cards for most deck types.

Starting Endor and Farm and Uprising Objective. Use Objective to pull out Swamp and then Nudj first turn. They can be the pinata for the dark side, although they might have a hard time finding the party. Strike Planning doesn’t let them generate force on Endor system unless they start with Endor Operations. You have more fun on Endor than the DS does, unless Endor Operations on table, eh? Use Strike Planning to pull out General Calrissian too for some Falcon action. Use Insurrection to pull out docking bays forever. Use Your Insight Serves you Well to pull out next DSII or Endor effect. Against Hunt Down or Bring Him Before Me, pull Honor of the Jedi. If you suspect space, pull Squadron Assignments. Pull Staging Areas if opponent isn’t giving you any force with his locations so you can then activate more at docking bays.

With Staging Areas, you can pull out the best cards to complete your space combos General Calrissian and Nien Numb on Gold 1. Wedge on Red Squadron 1, along with Hobbie on Red Squadron 4. Wedge and Hobbie can cancel opponents battle destiny. Or put Captain Solo on Falcon and Leia for extra destinies. Most of these combos deploy extra cheap on Endor=>Cheap party favors. Staging Areas is awesome. I’ll Take the Leader only adds to your space by giving more immunity to attrition and also letting you force drain +1 at Endor Landing Platform.

The other characters are tough on ground. I just love Chewie’s (lightsaber) bowcaster. Everything else is very self-explanatory. Use Fallen Portals on Docking Bays. Scramble serves you pilots for breakfast and can lay waste if they have enough of them running around on the ground when you deploy it.

Go where they go and you should be able to deploy in force to prevent the DS from joining in on the party. Ben Kenobi can deploy on Tatooine DB and move to where you want him. You’ll then get extra saving power of your characters. What else? Tell me what you think…..’
