Just started the game recently, and don't have many expansions. This list got rocked consistently with the old activation rules, but will it work better in the new FAQ now that I can see where my enemy is headed in the first turn?

IG-88

Trandoshan Hunter

Elite Trandoshan Hunter

Temporary Alliance

Rebel Saboteurs

I really want to find a way to make Mercs work. I know they need more cards, and there are cards coming. I love Relentless on IG and the Hunters, and of course Blast on the Sabs.

Thoughts? Is strain not as good as it seems? Do you generally choose to discard or to sustain a damage when you suffer a strain?

That's more or less the list I'm playing the next time I get a chance.

I think the real beauty in that list will be combining the stun from the Sabs with the bleed from the Trandos.
