Sith Dragon Ithorian Commander

Cost: 11
HP: 40
DEF: 12
ATK: +6
DAM: 20

CE: Followers in your squad with base 10 DAM and melee attack gain +4 ATK and +10 DAM.

What an awesome rebel piece this is. This is the piece that makes the unplayable playable. His stats are even pretty good for 11points. The DEF is low, but with 40 HP and base 20 DAM, its not bad for a piece that is meant for nothing but his CE.

Basically this piece makes swarms fun. The aqualish assassin, who is a good piece in its own right can now open with the same stats as it's opportunist attack, while becoming a +15 for 30 DAM with opportunist. Who ever thought of playing captive Leia? Well, not you get a 13 point piece that has a +11 attack for 20 DAM and a whopping 60 HP with a force point. Bib fortuna? Now he is a +8 for 20 DAM and poison +20. Not bad for 8 points. Ayy Vida, wookiee commandos, kaminoans, and on and on. With the nice HP some of these figs have and the extra damage output, the Ithorian is a fantastic piece to play. Its only downside is that it came out in the same set that made disruptive extremely common with the release of Mara and R2-PO.

100pts: You won't get enough here to use him.

150/200: As long as you have an answer for disruptive, the Ithorian squads are loads of fun and do really well because it relies on lots of cheap pieces that can really hit for some big damage. Give him a go and you will see he is a lot of fun. Han in stormtrooper armor also helps the small pieces get into the fray faster.

HP 30
def 6
dam 20
melee attack
CE followers in your squad with damage 10 and melee attack get +4 attack and +10 damage.

This was a very game changing character. What I like about him is how he makes some not used charaters from the old sets usable. For example Princess lea captive. She can now actually hit for decent damage. The not so much used Vornskr Is even more deadly. I preferr to use them with the Balck sun and Aquish assasins. Then they can be a +15 atk for 30 damage with oppretunist. that is amazing for a 7 point piece. The other staple for these types of squades is han solo in stormy armour. then the melee attackers can actually do something.

Points score

100 1/5 It dosn't deal enough damage in this format.

150/200 5/5 in an ithoran squad they are the bases of the squad.

150/200 1/5 they are no good by themselves.
