So GSP stream pointed out an interesting interaction I hadn't been aware of - LWF makes Palpatine work more like his old self as you can hold off on him until you know that he is needed.

So could this be the list that can make a Palpshuttle worth it again (maybe some different upgrade configs)?

Please extrapolate.

I think the Palp shuttle's biggest advantage now is offensively. Like for Wampa, crit on "I'll show you the dark side" and making a Big ordinance or swarm leader count. Defensively you will have to be careful.

Light weight frame: after rolling defence dice, if there are still more red dice then green dice, roll one additional green die. So after rolling the first dice, before rolling on more die, the player gets to see the results of the other dice and make a decision at that moment whether he wants to use Palp on this roll or not. Interesting interaction and I applaud the creativity, but I don't believe it's powerful enough to be competitive.
