Deployment cards for "boss" characters in the campaign

By Bitterman, in Star Wars: Imperial Assault

In our campaign, it kinda bugged me when we got to the Chain of Command mission, where it basically says: "The Imperial Officer is really Weiss, only with the following abilities that you just have to remember..."


I thought to myself, wouldn't it be better to have an actual deployment card for Weiss? And, indeed, for General Weiss in Desperate Hour, and Darth Vader in Last Stand, who both have "end-level boss" abilities as well.


So I made some.

You can of course print them out and leave it at that (especially if you're using card protectors). Personally, I glued them onto spare Imperial deployment cards that I otherwise couldn't use (you get a unique General Weiss card in both the core set and the General Weiss villain pack, for example), so the heroes wouldn't know they were non-standard cards while they were in reserve, and would only find out when they were brought into play.


Enjoy!

Weiss on foot and IG-88 copies would have been a good idea to add to the villain packs.

These look fantastic! Did you use templates to create these cards? If I can get my hands on those, I can remake them so that the font for the special ability text matches the rest of the card text.

Didn't use a template. Used the images FFG provided in their various news articles, plus Paint .NET (free download).

Because some missions vary the bonuses dependent on the point in the campaign.

However, no reason you couldn't simply print those and stick them in the box.
