I think it will get demolished by Luke and Leia and Sabs, but I like the regen properties of the Elite E-Webs. Hide the Officers behind the E-Webs, hide the AT-ST behind the Officers, and slowly move out. Let the opposing team just have the objectives and dare them to come at me as I use the heavy firepower to wipe their figures off the board before they can win with objectives.

Thoughts?

You can't hide the AT-ST behind any figures. He has the Massive keyword.

I think you'll have a hard time handling objectives. If you could just sit in one spot that list would be deadly.

Poor choice of words. I meant keep the AT-ST back there so that both officers can command it to fire if need be and to prevent adjacency unless they take the long way around.

That's true, but I've completely ignored objectives on tournament maps before and done well. The problem, of course, is that with this squad I wouldn't even get to pretend that I was going for them.

Would be crushingly good on an interior map with hallways.

Back to the drawing board!

I might test this out for fun and giggles.
