There they are. Finally. All the Republic characters (so far) are up. Tell me what you think.

Also, almost all the costs I've thrown up there are quick fixes, so they may be off by a bit. And, before you ask, the 501st Medic is wielding a scalpel. Lol.

[Jm419]

The 501st Clone Trooper looks good. 501st Legion is a nice touch.

General Skywalker is nice, looks like a lightsaber toting MtU.

501st Sniper=epic sniper. Nice job on that one.

I don't know that the CE on the Sergeant is the best idea. Maybe you could just grant Deadly Attack.

Squad Chemistry is a neat abilitiy, but probably needs a rename.

Anakin Skywalker, Leader of the 501st looks nice. A good mixed bag Anakin.

These CE's just keep stacking up. Evade, Squad Cover, Squad Firepower, Squad Assault...even basic Stormies would be killing machines with these abilities.

The Jet Trooper is nice.

Oh, add Stealth to the CE's. Lol.

I like Quick Surgery.

So, these guys can get: Evade, Squad Cover, Squad Firepower, Squad Assault, and Stealth. Wow.

[bountyhunter9]

Yeah, 501st Legion prevents abuse, and makes the commander effects a lot simpler.

Thanks on G Skywalker. I originally had him give out Accurate, but I'll save that for the Elite Troopers.

The Clone Sniper is the sniper with the obvious sniper abilities. Idk if I'll do flavour text for this set yet, but if I do, his will be: "One shot, one kill."

You're probably right on the Sergeant, I was just trying to make him an improved version of the normal Clone Sergeat (not very creative of me). Maybe another ability, besides Deadly (which the Clone Sergeant essentially grants), but still has to do with crits. Hmm. Flurry might not be enough (Deadly is probably better), and Vicious doesn't fit. Can you think of something?

I agree on Squad Chemistry. What would you suggest I rename it to?

Yeah, it is powerful, but it pretty much ends there (for now), and it costs a lot. The Imps probably have cheaper commanders.

Lol. Does Stealth fit? I originally had Adv. Cover, but that's crazy. Maybe Stable Footing, or Greater Stable Footing (giving +2/+2 when on difficult terrain/low objects, as well as the benefits of normal SF).

Yeah, I got most of the ideas for the medics from your medics in VwH. They are very good ideas, and I wanted them to be part of the 501st.

[Jm419]

Accurate? Hmm. I think that might be a bit much, even for a trooper-only CE. It's a powerful ability.

I should have used that for Sev's flavor text. Darn. That looks like a good idea.

Maybe grant Mobile Attack. That's a useful ability, and while it has nothing to do with Crits, it allows for troopers to actually survive long runs from one side of the map to the other.

Brotherhood? That was a big deal to clones. Brothers-in-Arms, maybe?

It does cost a lot. That's true. You won't be able to buy any Stormies to make uber-powerful grunts out of.

Stable Footing is always a nice choice, especially on elite troopers. GSF sounds too powerful, and would need revision if you wanted to use it.

Thanks. I noticed there weren't any effective medics (the Polis Massa medic gets nailed in the opening salvo, no exceptions), so I decided to fix that. That's one of VwH's saving graces.

[bountyhunter9]

Yeah, Accurate is too powerful. That's why I gave him Charging Fire.

Yeah, that flavour text is really good. It's basically the only flavour text I have for this set, so far.

Mobile is a good idea. It would go well with Stable Footing.

Hmm. Maybe something to do with them all being Fett clones, or something.

I think I'll go with Stable Footing, it's good enough as is.

Yeah, I dislike how almost all the medics are a) overcosted; b) lack any offensive capabilities whatsoever; and c) have extremely low defense and HP, meaning a stray Uggie or Ewok could kill them easily. That's why the 501st Medic is cheap, and the 501st Field Surgeon can dish out a bit of damage and stand up to any and all 3 point pieces.

[Jm419]

Yeah...Charging is iffy, but still acceptable, I'd say.

Lol. It's harder to do the flavor text than the stats, sometimes.

That's what I was thinking about Mobile, too. It's a nice combo, and not one on very many pieces.

Identical Genetics?

Yeah, that'ss probably better.

LOL. Any and all...very nice. Do you like VwH's fighter pilots? Or do you think they're gimmicky?

[bountyhunter9]

Yeah, CF is a poweful ability, and will be fun with Stable Footing. Depends is you want CF or S Firepower and S Assault for your troopers.

Yeah, it can be. Esepcially if the Wook doesn't have any quotes for them.

Hmm. IG is close. Maybe Pure something. Idk. This is harder than I thought.

Yeah, they are nice. Gimmicky, perhaps, but I never understood why WotC's Pilot SA doesn't do something similar.

[Jm419]

My thoughts exactly.

Lol. You'll notice in VwH, I've written things that aren't quotes for characters who don't have memorable quotes. For instance, Aayla Secura's flavor text is like, "Aayla Secura was a capable general during the Clone Wars" or something. But Vader, Sith'ari's flavor text is "He's more machine now than man..." and Anakin, Fallen Jedi was "You were the Chosen One! You were supposed to destroy the Sith, not join them! Bring balance to the Force, not leave it in darkness!" You can guess Yoda's flavor text.

Maybe even Bred for Battle?

That was a problem I sought to rectify, and though the abilities are wordy, I like how they turned out. Especially since I have a Red Squadron pilot, and two of Red Squadron survived the Battle of Yavin, so that's set...before the Battle of Yavin.

[bountyhunter9]

Lol. I've done that too, I had to put DR10 on one fo my droids because the only flavour text I could find was: the Lin Demolitionmech is one tough droid!

I had a decent name for it, but I forget it now. Maybe Teamwork, or something. Idk.

Lol. True.

[Jm419]

LOL. That's the first I've heard of flavor text shaping the stats, not the other way around.

I'm sure you'll think of it.

[bountyhunter9]

Lol. The glossary definiton says the flavour text reflects the mini's game abilities. And it would seem out of place if I used that flavour text on a droid with 40 HP and no other defenses.

Yeah. I'll keep throwing ideas up. It should help me remember it, or find a better name. How about Sqaud Battle Tactics, or something.

[Jm419]

That would be good. Sounds like Revan's Battle Tactics, though. Battlefield Bravery?

[bountyhunter9]

Hmm. Still can't remember. I'll post a bunch of synonyms for teamwork. Maybe one of them'll sound good:

Alliance, assistance, coalition, combined effort, confederacy, confederation, doing business with, esprit de corps, federation, harmony, help, joint effort, partisanship, partnership, pulling together, symbiosis, synergism, synergy, team effort, teaming, union, unity, working together

[Jm419]

Or just give them Squad Assault. Lol.

Seriously, though, esprit de corps is interesting - it's the motto of the United States Marine Corps, who are the most elite fighting troops in the world, so that might be a good reflection for the Clone Troopers.
