Wow, very impressive. Guess that means new pack next week if the trend continues.
EDIT: Just noticed, average 2 force icons too =D
Time for New Defenses - New Jedi set on Main Page
I'm not too familiar with the expanded universe….read the Thrawn trilogy years ago. Anyways, other than that, not too famliar with the new characters that keep popping up. I looked on Wookieepedia, but couldn't find anything thematically that tied the Daughters of Allya to this objective or the Assault on Echo base. Is it just because they are force users? I don't know …seemed out of place.
Anyone know why the daughters would be in this objective?
Thanks!
Apparently they were the Witches of Dathomir (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Witches_of_Dathomir). There's a lot more info at the link but here's the basics:
The Witches of Dathomir (also referred to as either Dathomirians or Dathomiri) were a group of Human Force-sensitives native to the planet Dathomir. They were also known as the Daughters of Allya in honor of the wayward Jedi Knight Allya, who was banished to the planet around 600 BBY, and who they regarded as their ancestress. By the time of the Galactic Empire, Allya's descendants had divided into female-dominated clans that were named after regional landmarks. Each clan had a unique set of rules regarding Force usage, but all the clans held one rule above all others: "Never concede to evil".
It is kind of interesting that the NIght Sisters are a sect of the Witches of Dathomir as well.
Looking forward to adding that objective set into my Jedi deck.

I see it's still on the boat. Doesn't this mean it would ship next week, arrive the week after?
Did y'all se they spoiled Col Serra as well?

The pack could be in the states right now on it's way to Minneapolis tp ffg's warehouse. Whem it starts shipping to distributors is when ffg updates the page. I'm hoping for next week too but more for the Scum and Smugglers objectives. Not to impressed with this Jedi one but I'll give it a go before I make any definitive statements.
Okay. I thought the typical trend was that the status is updated on Mondays or Tuesday to 'Shipping' and then it's typically available sometime mid to late the following week.
Col Serra is SICK. It would be obscene if his pod included some speeders, to combo with Hoth Ops…
Yes it would. I don't think we have seen anything else on it however.
Spoke with my LGS - they talked to their distrubutor, while I was there, and the distributor has no information pertaining to a set releasing/shipping next week.
Looks like it will be the week of June 24th at the earliest.
