	your deck that severely increases average destiny? Take an Ellorrs Madak
	or two.

	Next, this card has two uses:		Next, this card has two uses: The first gives any non-pilot/non-droid character piloting skill. That character gets to add 2 to power of any starship he pilots. Are you running out of different pilots and is the cumulative rule bugging you ? Use [[Ellorrs Madak]] to 'train' your characters and make hordes of different pilots, all capable of adding their pilot power bonus. Why, even a lowly [[Rebel Trooper]] could become a power in his own right. And remember, pilots also enhance the power of combat vehicles. With 2 variants of basic Snowspeeders and three named ones ([[Rogue 1]], 2 and 3), the Rebels could use a lot of pilots (even if only to counter AT-AT threat). With Cloud City cloud sectors have become dominant. Basically, this card offsets the power reduction from clouds. The second use is devious. Deploy on any pilot to increase his pilot bonus even more. Basically, you could make any 'add 2 to power' character an 'add 3 to power' character, like [[BoShek]] or [[Luke Skywalker]]. Why not take this a step further and deploy [[Ellorrs Madak]] on [[Luke Skywalker]] or [[BoShek]]. They would then 'Add 4 to power of any starship' they pilot. This would do more than just double the power of any X-Wing, and even triples the power of a basic Y-Wing !!! (on top of that, they both have ability 4, which we all know to be a very interesting number with regards to battle destiny).
