Card Text

Agendas: justice, peace. While in a senate majority, once during your control phase, may retrieve 1 Force for each Naboo site you control. May be placed on your Political Effect instead of a senator. Immune to attrition < 3.

Lore

Naboo leader. Frustrated by the Trade Federation's control of her planet, Amidala came to the Senate to plead her case in person.

Strategy

By Nick Zube[1]

You've seen her in her Handmaiden outfit, now see her in her full geisha glory. Queen Amidala is back in town, and the Senate will never be the same!

Just like her Padmé Naberrie persona, Amidala has very well-rounded stats, even for a Light Side character. A high destiny draw, excellent forfeit, decent power, a dash of Politics, and that all-important 4 ability put her over many Light Side characters in almost every desirable category. She's even immune to attrition < 3.

However, unlike Padmé, who is a key to Jedi battle strategies, the Queen works best in the Senate, pleading for the rights of her downtrodden people. She may not be a Senator, but she still contributes to a senate majority with her 2 Politics. She can even be placed on Political Effects like a Senator. And, like all good little Senators, Amidala gives you an excellent benefit for achieving a senate majority: you can retrieve 1 Force for each Naboo site you control.

"What?!" you ask. "Naboo? But... but... this is the Coruscant set!"

So it is, but you'll find quite a few Naboo sites lurking behind the scenes in Coruscant. Not only are there a few great drain sites in the bunch, but you can supplement them with generic sites from Special Edition to create a completely site-based "Celebration" deck that uses the immensely more secure Senate over a beatdown-prone system to achieve its retrieval. Smells like a deck type to me.

Just watch out for Darth Maul...
