Vader's Fist
"Within months, the 501st gained a well deserved reputation as 'Vader's Fist.' "
-Unidentified 501st Legion Stormtrooper
Vader's Fist, my fourth 60 piece custom set, features characters from seven of the ten factions. This is also my first set to feature rarities (like the most recent WotC 60 piece set, there are 16 Commons, 16 Uncommons, 14 Rares and 14 Very Rares). This set focuses primarily on the 501st Legion and the divisions within the legion that would serve the Republic and eventually the Empire throughout the Clone and Galactic Civil Wars. Over half of the set is part of the Republic or Imperial factions, most of them being part of the 501st. I've also introduced a new ability - 501st Legion - that creates a squad-building restriction that can effectively make the 501st its own sub-faction within the Republic and Imperial factions. Here are the stats for Vader's Fist:
Average Cost: 24 Average Hit Points: 50 Average Defense: 16 Average Attack: +8 Average Damage: 20
Character Count By Faction:
Fringe: 11 total Old Republic: 3 total Sith: 3 total Republic: 14 total Separatist: 2 total Imperial: 19 total Rebel: 8 total
Uniques/Non-Uniques:
Unique: 26 total Non-Unique: 34 total
Melee/Nonmelee:
Melee: 13 total Nonmelee: 47 total
Force Users/Non-Force Users:
Force Users: 13 total Non-Force Users: 47 total
Commanders/Non-Commanders:
Commanders: 17 total Non-Commanders: 43 total

Lol. It takes a ton of time, and I have had enough math for one day.

I know how you feel. I was helping out my girlfriend with chemistry - which I hate, by the way, and I haven't done a chemistry problem in months - so, after that, I just didn't do my physics homework. Just a mental overload.

Yeah. It sucked because I had no idea what to do. I was like, draw this line here, okay that didn't work, okay connect those dots...we gave up after about an hour. I haven't had math in almost a year - I had a first semester last year and i have it second this year. Stupid. How is Physics? I'm thinking of taking it next year.

I'm in an Honors level course - I love physics, because you can test it. It doesn't matter to me about what's inside the nucleus of an atom - but I can use physics everyday. It's hard, but it's rather fun to do. You know, relatively.

Yeah. For school, it's alright. I've always liked Science. Math is alright too. I like the "black-and-white" courses, where the answer to the question is either this or that. Not like English or anything I have to "think deeply" about. I hate that. Physics sounds pretty good. I'm interested in Biology too. Have you taken that?

Biology is really easy. It's just memorization - and there isn't any math involved, which is nice. I'm more of an English/History guy, but I'm really enjoying the physics right now. But yeah, Biology is really easy.

That's good. I don't like any courses I'm not good at - which is probably why I don't like English. Grade 9 English was my lowest mark in high school (so far...). I have an easy semester right now, but next semester, when I have Math, English, Art (didn't get an Art credit in grade 9), and History, you may here me complaining. A lot. Jk. How's school going for you?

Pretty well. I hate math, I'm not very good at it. I have excellent marks in my classes right now, except for math. I'll have a good GPA this trimester, which will go pretty well. My classes are tough, but I'll survive.

Yeah. I'm not sure whether I like Math or not. Kinda in-between. I had 90 or more in all my classes last year, except for English (84) and Phys Ed (85). Probably why I don't like it.
What's a good GPA again? Isn't like 4.0 perfect? Not sure exactly how that works.

5.0 is perfect - if you take solid honors classes. Anything above 4.2 is genius, and anything above about 3.3 is considered excellent. I have about a 3.5 now, overall. But I had a 4.0 all of sophomore year.

That's impressive. You said trimester before...does that mean you have three terms? Doesn't that mean you're done your first set of classes like half-way through November?

That's correct. I'll be done with classes for the trimester by the American Thanksgiving - like the 22nd is the last day before my winter break. Then, I go back for two or three weeks, then get another two weeks off for Christmas. Lol.
