Princess Leia Faction: Rebel Cost: 20 HP: 50 DEF: 14 ATK: 7 DMG: 20 Unique Force 2 Commander Effect: At the end of this character's turn, 1 Rebel follower within 6 squares can make 1 immediate attack at +4 ATK and +10 Damage. There has been many different versions of Princess Leia ever since Rebel Storm. We had Senator, Slave, Rebel Hero, Hoth Commander, and now this. Each Leia has a way of helping out your squads, whether it be extra movements, just a filler, or even bringing back the dead. Out of all of them, however, this is my second favorite one to use (the Hoth Commander is my favorite). Stat-wise, she's not very pretty. 50 HP means she isn't gonna last long, especially with only 14 DEF, an ATK of 7 is... meh, and the 20 DMG is standard. Nothing pretty there, right? Well, for abilities she has Unique and Force 2. The Force 2 is gonna help and hurt, as there are a lot of Jedi Hunters out in this game, but the rerolls and moving an additional 2 squares are sometimes worth it. So, we still have nothing that makes her extraordianry. However, its the Commander Effect that makes this piece worth using... She allows one Rebel follower within 6 squares to make an immediate attack at +4 ATK and +10 Damage. I don't know about you, but that is a killer Commander Effect. So, that means Luke, Champion of the Force can make an immediate attack at +17 ATK for 30 DMG, Han Solo, Scoundrel making TWO attacks at +13 ATK for 30 DMG (accurate shooter, too), and our Hoth Trooper with ATGAR Cannon shooting at a +7 ATK (not super impressive) for 40 DMG! Now, some of these don't sound like much, but a piece like this increases the damage output for your squad, which is very important. In 100 PT format, I can't think of a way she can get in here, especially with the Banes and Vaders roaming around. In 150 she can be seen, as Rebels can do well in this format. Same with 200. So, my ratings for the day is: 100: 3/5 150: 3.5/5 200: 3.5/5 Peace out. -ND
