We need some female villians.

By DarthBahamut, in Star Wars: Imperial Assault

Why are the only women in IA heros/rebels? Lets get some ladies for the Imperial player in campaign!

Some quick ideas....

Guri Human Replica Droid - Mercenary

10 Threat

Guardian, Brawler, Droid

656IJRW.jpg

+1 Block l - : +2 damage

- : Recover 2

_______________

Bodyguard: Whenever an attack targeting a friendly figure adjacent to

you is declared, you may declare yourself as the target instead.

Retaliate: After an attack targeting you is is resolved, you can interrupt

to perform an attack targeting that attacker. Limit once per round.

_______________

HP: 16 Speed: 4 Def: B Melee Attack: RG

(Guri is what a Royal Guards should have been with Bodyguard. Instead of projecting some odd armor aura like a WoW paladin, she actually takes the hit for her employer. She has powerful surges, but lacks ways to get them consistently with only a red and green die. She is also limited to melee range so while attacking her or anyone near in melee can prove dangerous, she can not retaliate ranged attacks.)

Aurra Sing Master of Arms - Mercenary

9 Threat

Hunter, Brawler

+2 Accuracy l -: Pierce 2

-: Bleed i -: Hide

______________________

Arsenal: Your attack pool consists of any combination of 2

attack dice.

ACP Scattergun: While attacking, if you are adjacent to the target,

apply +2 damage to the attack results.

Resourceful: While attacking or defending, you may reroll

1 of your attack or defense dice.

_____________________

HP: 12 Speed: 5 Def: B Ranged Attack: ??

(Aurra is a versatile villian. She can perform long range snipes or get in the thick of things. Originally I was going to give her just a sniper rifle and lightsaber... but I think arsenal is something that would be more fitting and is a under utilized skill.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Silri Beast Tamer - Mercenary

8 Threat

Force User - Leader

5QN8V49.jpg?1

Reach l +1 anti-surge

-: Pierce 3 l -: Recover 2

__________________________

-> Sic: Choose a friendly Creature within 2 spaces, that figure may

interrupt to move 2 spaces and then perform an attack.

Beast Master: When you are deployed, resolve an optional deployment.

You may only deploy once and only Creatures. Reduce the threat cost

by 4.

__________________________

HP: 9 Speed: 4 Def: W Melee Attack: GG

(With creatures becoming more and more a thing, Silri gives us a more thematic appropriate Creature officer.)

Aurra Sing is an obvious choice for a female villain in IA

Mara Jade even more so (barring canon discussions).

To be fair, Royal Guards don't project an aura, they block a shot with their Force Pike :-D

I wouldn't mind Aurra Sing. She was a favorite before the Clone Wars, and I thought here Clone Wars rendering was pretty good. Though I don't think there was any mention of her after he was stunned unconscious by Padme.

Women are wonderful, not evil. Only white, male, cis, christian and preferably British people are evil. Everyone else is an oppressed minority who can do no wrong.

What we need are large base Rebels and force using scum.

I like Ysanne and a lot of the imperial female admirals but there wasn't many Generals or ground commanding females in old lore and new. Maybe the new Bantha riding Stormtrooper is a woman?

It's a dewback and no, Terro is a man. They refer to him as such in the preview.

Surprised no one is criticizing the stats on the ideas.

Why not just make some alternate sculpts of existing characters too? A female Imperial officer, ISB Infiltrators, or Hired Guns. From the latest preview of the Star Wars LCG there was an awesome picture of a female bounty hunter which would make for a great figure.

It is quite a shame that there isn't really any female villain in the Star Wars movies. Not sure if I can count Phasma because she was "trashed" in the movie and didn't really do anything. I would have liked for the main villain of Rogue One to be female rather than another Imperial officer. Maybe we'll get lucky in Episode 8 or 9? Something tells me that we won't. Hollywood seems to stay away from female villains these days.

Disney is run by females, that's why they have lead roles, not badguy roles.

Guri will never hit anything with 0 accuracy and RG. I think I'd have a problem with 16 hp and recover. I'm sure there will be a reliable way in the future to be hidden. I see what you're trying to do, I'd maybe just switch retaliate to a better version of Han's ability (1x a round) and add +1-2 accuracy

Aurra Sing seems like a movement 5 to me in the way I remember her. Didn't she have some cybernetic implants or something that made her so quick? That's why she could handle a light saber and hunt Jedi, etc right?

Sirli, I would drop the leader for Hunter ( xizor is the only other scum leader) and change the rule to one or the other, both attack and move is overpowered in my opinion

Since Rebels is canon, I wouldn't be surprised to see the female Inquisitor pop up when they get around to a Rebels expansion.

She started life as a padawan but was kidnapped by pirates and basically went Patty Hearst.

Why does Guri need Accuracy? She is Melee.

I can buff Aurra.

I'll nerf Sic slightly but since Silri herself isn't powerful only slightly nerf it. She is mainly just a creature officer.

The next mini campaign should be set on dathomir, that way nightsisters and a nightmother can fill the female scum force sensitive roles.

According to Wookieepedia Palpatine created a prison on dathomir but when he realised the strength of the nightmother he destroyed the ship's standing both the guards and prisoners.

The rebels would have to infiltrate the prison and rescue some prisoners.

Scum could get nightmother/nightsisters, zabrak and rancors are native to dathomir so could reuse the model from the jabba expansion.

Imps could get a female prison warden and some riot troopers (shields and stun batons)

Rebels will get hero's and some random unique allies to represent the prisoners.

^^^^ I 100% already wanted a Dathomir expansion XD

With German names oddly enough?

The imperials are thinly veiled Space Nazis with the usage of British denoting a broader European accent instead of the on - the - nose German.

But none of that was done purposefully. It was filmed in England and all the extras were English. There really isn't any hint of this xenophobia that became part of the larger lore, later, anywhere in the OT. I think Zahn invented it as a way to make Thrawn more special.

We've already had this discussion before... can we please keep this on topic?

I know I hate people who get off topic! ;)

Now that Asajj Ventress is being introduced in X-Wing, I think we'll see her in IA pretty soon. Maybe even some other night sisters. She and Agent Kallus would make great villains in any Rebels TV show based expansion, or she could be post-season 1 and give Mercs their first force user.

Spoiler: Ventress died during the Clone Wars in Dark Disciple.

Her voice actress is in Rebels though as the spirit in the Sith Holocron.

Maybe Ventress can be "ressurected" by the sisters and come back with droid legs... oh... wait...

I know this is a joke, but Mother Talzin is also dead, so that's fairly unlikely

She wouldn't be the first dead character to be in IA
