Could someone please educate me on the proper way to kill Vader? I have played 8 games against vader and have yet to kill him. The past five games I have tried different tactics and none of them prevailed. Tonight I figured some ready and waiting fleet troopers with a scatter gun would surprise him, but seven hits later only one went through. I flanked my AT-RT and he died to two saber throws. I ended the night with two damage I inflicted and one damage inflicted by his command card.
The only solutions opponent has given me was to either A) not play near vader because he is so slow or B) Two Airspeeders. Maybe my opponents just roll extremely hot red dice on defense.
Luke has done nothing positive for me as a direct counter to Vader. I was hoping having him without a dodge token would help because he wouldn't have a deflect. And I am not going to sink half a list just to remove Vader from the game because you cannot claim objectives with tokens. As they said, the opponent cannot claim objectives if they are all dead.
