 Here's our Darth Maleval! The artwork and mini are based on the Quarren Assassin - add a Lightsaber and a Lightwhip, paint him black and you're done. After reading the comic through again, we're probably going to use the Sith Apprentice's body, pop the quarren's head on it, and add a lightwhip. We'll adjust the card if/when we change it. Anyway, we've been trying to get cheap troops and decent troop CE's into the Sith faction, and Maleval provided an easy way to do it with Imperial Stormtroopers. Yes, I know, more Affinity, but if it works, it works. Initially we gave him Sith Rage, but every Sith with a Force Point has it. So we gave him Force Alter instead to provide SOME kind of defensive ability for the Sith. Lightwhip is something we came up with to work around the fact that he carries the lightwhip and the lightsaber. We may up the damage to 20 on the whip. His cost is based near the other ONE SITH minors, like Darth Nihil, but could probably use some adjustment. Anyway, let me know if it looks good or if it needs some tweaking. You can find our custom cards here: DARK SIDE's Custom Minis ThreadSome cards have been updated recently after play testing, so check it out. DC |

I really like him. In fact, I have no suggestions to make. He's near-perfect for what he does and, like you said, comparable in many ways to Darth Nihl. Bringing Stormies into the Sith faction is really unique. Have you playtested him yet?

I bumped the damage on the lightwhip to 20. I didn't realize that Lumiya and the Mistral Shadow Guard had 20 damage base.

As I know nothing about this character, I'll have to judge it simply on balance and playability. So far, looks great!

Even better. Let us know the results of your playtesting, when you get to that point.

We did the artwork for Maleval using the Sith Apprentice's body. It looks pretty rad. I'm going to work on making the mini tonight.
