I posted stats for my Bothan Spymaster in the "sub-faction support" thread, but here are a few other ideas I was thinking about:
Bothan SpymasterCerean Mercenary Commander: Springboarding off Surf Cerean Tactician idea, I was thinking about a piece that might offer some nice support to the Merc "sub-faction" via a commander effect that offers limited "Intuition" (say, something like "Each mercenary within 6 squares can move up to 2 squares before the first activation." May not seem like much, but a skilled player could probably use the minor movement to really put the mercenary pieces to good use.
Also, maybe Tactics Broker.
Embo: I'm not sure what Embo will do, exactly, but I gotta admit I LOVE this guy from his single appearance in the Clone Wars animated series. I'd like to do him as an affordably-priced Fringe piece in the mid-20s, like other "fan favorites" Jarael and Dash Rendar. Maybe Evade, Charging Fire, Draw a Bead (see HELIOS-3D below)...
Ewok Warleader: Another "sub-faction" support piece, I was thinking that this guy might have (and give out via commander effect) abilities like:
Gorax Hunter (This character gains Twin Attack against enemies that are huge or larger)
Some-Slightly-Smaller-Monster Hunter (+4 Attack and +10 damage against enemies that are large or larger)
Maybe also Flurry Attack. Basically, the idea here is to turn to Ewoks into an army that excels at bringing down large opponents.
GenoHaradan Operative: This guy exists for one purpose, and one purpose only: to kill a commander:
www.bloomilk.com/Custom/6551/genoharadan-operativeHELIOS-3D: A unique variation on the IG Assassin droid, this guy might be a little too close to what I want Embo to be to keep them both. He's designed in part as a Lancer-killer, largely thanks to Draw a Bead, which would allow him to take an attack of opportunity against the Lancer (or other flying opponents).
www.bloomilk.com/Custom/6823/helois-3dRodian Commander: What does he do? Who knows. But there sure are a lot of Rodians, aren't there?
Savage Oppress: Come on, this guy is just too cool not to have a piece! Although he could be Sep, his real affinity doesn't like there (and certainly not with the Sith), so I was enivisioning himn as a Fringe piece, possibly with "super-Affinity" to Ventress. Maybe mid-40s, Force Repulse, some combat abilities... sort of a cross between Starkiller and Maul.
Shadowlands Hunter: Fringe Wookiee shooter with an ability that does bonus damage vs Savage pieces.
Terellian Jango Jumper: Every set needs commons, right? This gal moves fast and is pretty hard to hit. Sure, she won't last long, but in terms of gameplay, the real reason to use her is probably to help establish a deep strike via swap (assuming your Mouse droid can keep up!).
Trandoshan Slaver Captain: Another sub-faction piece, I thought this guy would give Trandoshans Immobilizing Rend... and maybe Wookiee Hunter.
Twi'lek Smuggler: Another "Draw a Bead" character, this is a cheap Fringe piece that can, theoretically, help end the reign of madness of the Lancer droids. As a smuggler/pilot, she is also designed to work with the theoreticaly Hylo Visz (see Old Rep thread):
www.bloomilk.com/Custom/6824/twilek-smugglerWookiee Laborer: Sharrakor designed this guy a while back, and although I fiddle with him from time to time (most recently raising the HP a bit), he's basically intact. I like him, and throw him in whenever I'm working on a set and need a common.
