The answer Tauntauns is more Tauntauns. Everybody knows this.

Man, they got some funky traditions.

...wait, I should probably clarify the, smell bad comment. I was talking about the Tauntauns and not the Notorious Scoundrels. Boy I hope you were too.😳

I did say not. 🥺😰

One or two T-21 might actually be pretty decent in some lists. Range 3 is a problem of course, but with Spotter or Coordinated Fire, it is pretty easy to get two aim tokens on a unit. That is an average of more than 3 crits per unit. This could be pretty useful to prepare a back to back attack from Bossk.

Crits do not only bypass armor, but also cover, Guardian and dodge. That might become a thing when Droids and clones become popular. Dodgesharing and Kenobi or "Supreme Commander" with B2-Battledroids + Guardian + Armor could make Crits really useful. There are allready some units coming up that move around with two or three dodge tokens (Tauntauns, Luke, Sabine and so on).

I agree. As crits become more important I could see the T-21 getting more play.

It also maintains is damage through cover as the unit takes casualties better than the DLT or RT-97.
