Ugh Riot Troopers And Sentry Droids

And if you bring an elite Jawa, all of your droids get +2 speed, which is kind of insane.

Approaches useful, but mostly only if you have the activation advantage. :D

( Motivators is the other reason why I really like the Jawa Scavenger . Hitting very hard for its cost is the other, especially if you have access to a reroll ability.)

Played The Spice Job. Rebels have Gaarkhaan and Drokkatta and the Wookie Warrior allies so it seemed like a natural fit to try and get Chewie on board our Rebel band wagon. Dear god it was a slaughter, didn't even get the doors open. Elite Sentry Droids and elite Riot Troopers on top of elite Trandoshans just brutalized the Rebels. The block ability from Chewie, who you get for free, got used a CRAZY number of times. But with elite sentry droids throwing out 4 attacks a turn the least damaging of which is 3 pierce 2, faces start melting fast. As bad as that was, it still might have been barely winnable, but what really lost it for us was the eNexu rolling 6 dodges.

But don't get me started on Infrared Scanners when you have the 1 blue perception Gaarkhan in your crew...

All in all, it was probably for the best that you didn't get Chewie, tempting as it may be. Still, it must be a sight to behold to field all those wookies at once.
