Wurms knows what's up. I've borrowed list suggestions from him and they do well.

Secondly, we all want to set the world on fire with our mad, mad piloting skills, but keep in mind as a returning player, that your skills can be rusty and your eye for ranges may not be what it used to be. What I'm trying to say is set realistic expectations. Play something your're comfortable with and just enjoy the day for the near misses, the crazy rolls and crit chains.

Having said that, I like the Galactic Republic list. It has a nice mix of beef and the Acey-est Ace there is. Anakin can be nutty good.

I would give him Heightened Perception and Spare Parts though.
