Yup I will have it updated later today after I split some firewood.

Coordinated Strike seems really good… back-to-back strikes would break a Sith lock down…

Are we seriously getting both Rogue Two and Rogue Leader in the same objective set? This will be the first objective set with multiple unique cards. I am not complaining just blown away by this. I can't wait to build a Speeder Hoth deck!

I wonder why Rogue Two's name isn't italicized.

Probably because Rogue Two, like Rogue Leader, isn't a ship, it's a callsign. In which case, Red Five really shouldn't be italicized.

There is the jedi oset with red five and R2 in the same set. Granted R2 is a glorified resource, but still there is already an oset with multiple uniques.

I really want to see the rest of Red Leader. Only 1 cost for a Luke-based card?

Another batch of really powerful cards. How about the fact that the AT-AT is basically Vader with shielding that can also take out enhancements?

I've a question: Is it possible for a Smugglers & Spies affiliated card (eg Shadow Operative) to be in a Rebel Alliance objective set? Or is it stated somewhere that this cannot happen? I know it may require some specific deck building, and would handicap certain decks wanting to try the set, but I have been wondering about it since everyone had been discussing the inclusion of S&S objectives in the Hoth cycle, with little proof of them appearing

We have seen a Smugglers objective already so we know we will get a few.

oSet 49 - prepare for evacuation.

Besides which, some of the articles have specifically mentioned that we will see all 6 factions in Hoth Force Packs. While the general theme of the packs are targeted towards Hoth, not all 32 Objective Sets will be based there.
