We already havea rebel Captive card, that is close enough for Lea.
That is like saying we have red squadron we don't need Luke.
Where is Lea?
If the Lea crew card comes on the Tative IV, then I guess we could put her on any ship with a crew slot.
I like something to do with stress for her ability.
Something like:
At the beginging of you combat phase gain a stress +1 to your attack dice
or
At the beging of your combat phase remove a stress token -1 to your attack dice.
what ever her ability is, based on her central nature to the star wars story line, her ability should be really good.

How hard is it really? There is an "i" in there.
I think the last thing we need is a Lando that can pass out an action and get a shield back for every green maneuver

Maybe then I'd actually see folks playing Lando...
It was stated in the article hyping capitol ships that she will have a card in the tantive IV box.
"The Tantive IV won’t be legal for standard tournaments, but you’ll be able to bring it to battle in both the Cinematic Play and Epic tournament format. Furthermore, you’ll gain the opportunity to crew it with the indomitable Rebel hero, Leia Organa!"

Lol! I was beginning to think I was the only one bothered by this!
I kept reading the thread title as "Where is Lee?" and was thinking, "Lee? Who's Lee? One of the more notable tournament players, maybe?"
5Pts pilot upgrade
Princess Leia
Princess Leia allows you to surrender your ships to your enemy in exchange for having luke and han turn up in your next game on top of any ships in your new fleet.
Leia definitely makes more sense as crew than as a pilot. I've never read anything that has her flying her own ship or anything mentioning her as an even competent pilot (aside from what was mentioned in this thread).
For what its worth, she did pilot a Y-wing in Splinter of the Mind's Eye, which could be considered one of the earliest sources of the EU. In fact, I believe that book was the source of the "two-seat" Y-wing concept.
What about a Princess Leia crew card that represents her as a Diplomat. "When attacked turn this card down to cancel the attack." Make it worth 4 points or something. As the defender you choose when to use it. If your opponent has a heavy hitting ship they may choose not to target you for fear of losing the attack in a given round.
Just spitballing.
4 points to completely cancel out an entire attack per round? Seems really OP for the point value. What about when there's only one enemy ship left? Then you have a completely castrated opponent.
Has no one yet mentioned the idea of a Tag & Bink crew card?
Lea could have a crew effect of, the first person you make an attack against receives 1 stress token

It's a single use card. a single shot wasted doesn't seem over the top for 4pts. In fact I can't see myself ever taking it, even if reduced a point or two.

Oh, well that's different. I think it would only really work for the Falcon and the only instance I can see it being terribly helpful is if you're suffering 3 or more points of damage in a turn, or two critical hits or you're definitely going to get blown away. I'd rate her at 3 points if that was how it worked, personally, but it more works more like the more universal Elite Talent really. In which case I'd call it Death Defiance.
Somehow I see her as someone who would be able to bestow benefits to allied ships. After all, she is an important leader within the Rebel Alliance, and who doesn't want to be on the side of the spunky princess of an annihilated planet?
Leia is more the heart of the Rebellion. She know how to fight and she brings out the very best of the rebel A-Team.
So I would give her something about focus or stress relive ...

Harsh Macar. Harsh.
Leia's piloting skills are more force based and didn't really develop until she became a Jedi.
She has piloted (whether skillfully or not is to be decided) a number of craft including X's and the Falcon, after Chewy's demise.
I think the fact that the characters released tend to be based on the timescale of the original trilogy (or the EU from there about) is one of the reasons why Leia has not appeared as a pilot as yet..

Jabba feeds his dancers to the rancor for his amusement. What do you think happenes with sexy ladies in metal bikinis and chains? This isn't the Muppet Show.
But true, Episode IV-VI were covered so far (including an EU ship) together with the upcomming capital ships.
And speaking about Episode IV: Leia was in the corvette. And now we get the corvette and we get Leia.
