Twin Suns Module : Darth Maul

Image
  Seemed trivial to make modules from starters so why not start with the most recent one.  Going to see if its worthwhile to make a module that locks in another aspect - in this case Vigilance.  The starter only had 23 unique cards, so I added 6 more useful cards. Leader: Darth Maul Ground Units (18) Witch of the Mist Director Krennic  Karis Nightsister Warrior Acolyte of the Beyond Infused Brawler Jedi In Hiding  Kylo Ren Merrin Talzin's Assasin Chirrut Imwe Darth Tyrannus Oggdo Bogdo  Thralls of the Coven Count Dooku  Savage Opress Darth Sideous  Pong Krell  Space Units (4) Padawan Starfighter Disabling Fang Fighter  Strikeship Scimitar  Events (4) Sorcerous Blast Do or Do Not  Drain Essence Force Choke  Upgrades (3)  Sith Holocron Fallen Lightsaber Darth Maul's Lightsaber   

Twin Suns Module : Obi Wan Kenobi, Courage Makes Heroes

Image
  I wanted to play a green leader next and Obi-Wan from LOF, aside from needing the force token, seemed to be good enough value to pair with other leaders.  Since you can only put experience tokens on units that don't have one, I chose to go wide with this module (meaning many small units) so I would usually have a target for his ability.  I also wanted to play with Private Manufacturing so I went with a splash of X-Wing tokens. Leader: Obi-Wan Kenobi Ground Units (15) Nien Numb - Until I get a playset to make a Paige Tico/ Nien Numb deck, this seems like the best place for the copy I have. Alliance Dispatcher Village Tender Battlefield Marine Echo, Valiant Arc Trooper Gifted Urchin Gungi Jedi Consular Seasoned Fleet Admiral Grogu, Mysterious Child Veteran Fleet Officer -  Poe Dameron Chewbacca, Faithful First Mate Discerning Veteran - Capture mechanic is strong Relic Scavenger  Space Units (7) Alliance X-Wing Patrolling V-Wing Phoenix Squadron A-Wing  Resi...

Event : Private Manufacturing

  Dust off this card from Twilight of the Republic, I think it might get it's moment to shine for the next 3 months.  Even though this card is intended to rotate out when A Lawless Time releases, with Spy tokens being released in Secrets of Power, this card could very well see some play.  Compare with other similarly costed 'draw 2' cards : Do or Do Not.  Does not require aggression aspect, nor does it need to use the force. Enforced Loyalty.  You need double command and defeat a friendly unit for the same cost. Mission Briefing.  Does not require aggression and costs one less.  With mission briefing you can choose the player, but why are you not choosing yourself?  In fact this card may have a resurgence in Twin Suns games as well.  Many token units were released since this card was released.  Card draw is arguably more important in Twin Suns since you only have one copy of each card.  They're probably all legendary and rare cards....

  Mostly played premiere games today.  But we did squeeze in one Twin Suns :   Obi Wan Kenobi (5) and Cassian Andor w/ Shadowed Undercity        Darth Revan & Asajj Ventress w/ Fortress Vader      Luke Skywalker (4) & Leia Organa w/ Chopper Base            Grand Admiral Thrawn & Nala Se w/ KCM Mining Facility            WINNER :  Luke Skywalker (4) & Leia Organa w/ Chopper Base

Twin Suns Module : Cassian Andor

Image
  I'm surprised I don't really see more of Cassian, but I suspect it's because he might be too slow in Premiere.  In Twin Suns, I have had a lot of success with him.  I also wanted to play with some of the new LOF aggresssion cards like Ki-Adi Mundi and Do or Do Not, so I felt compelled to make a force enabled module.  When you play this module, make sure you play with a force base. Leader: Cassian Andor Ground Units (15) Disaffected Senator - Underrated. Witch of the Mist Adi Gallia - I like her but she may be too much of a target in Twin Suns.  May swap her out if she gets too much hate. Infused Brawler Jedi In Hiding - Super good in Twin Suns Jedi Knight Merrin AT-DP Occupier Cham Sendula Ki-Adi-Mundi Rey, With Palpatine's Power Insurgent Saboteur  Mace Windu, Leaping into Action Saw Gerrera, Resistance is not Terrorism Aurra Sing, Crackshot Sniper  Space Units (5) Disabling Fang Fighter Hyena Bomber ETA-2 Light Interceptor Longbeam Cruiser Tantive ...

  Obviously I had a great time.  What can be better than going with your son to a card game tournament based on a license you cherished for over 40 years.  And the game is actually really good.  But enough about that, you are here because you share the passion and you want to know more from someone who went.  Well here's my brain dump for you guys, no social network crap. Drafting Process  After sitting at our assigned seats we were given six boosters, a box of sleeves, a playmat and a swag bag, along with the sheet listing all the cards in the set the we'd use as a checklist for the cards we opened. We'd open our packs when told to.  Count and fan them out to the person across from you to verify the pack had one leader, one token/base, and the rest rarities you would expect (and that the booster had all the cards).  Then you would sign your sheet as inspector and pass your cards to the person across from you.  They would proceed to document ...

Twin Suns Module : Vigilance

Image
I'm currently using 22 card base modules to plug and play with, and I was really interested in making a Cassian Andor module.  I didn't want to play with Rose, so I decided to make a Vigilance base module to give me more flexibility to pick leaders in the future. This module provides what you would expect.  Removal, Shields, Sentinel, Restore and other tools to improve survival.  In general a support module to allow you time to do what your leader modules want to do. Base : Shield Generator Complex or Shadowed Undercity (depends if you are playing with the force or not) Ground Units (8) Moisture Farmer Academy Graduate Hera Syndulla Nightsister Warrior Secretive Sage Captain Typho Cassian Andor Perimiter AT-RT Space Units (5) Landing Shuttle - Card draw in vigilance!
