Strategy

By Jedi Knight[1]

Although the 8th Snivvian in Star Wars CCG (POP QUIZ -- one named Snivvian is not a character card... can you work out which?), Rachalt is the first pilot of her species to make it onto a card.

Her lore tells a story almost as harsh as her features, but her game text provides an ability you may find useful! Sandwiched between a little drain-adding text and a pretty standard piloting bonus is a nice interrupt-removal text. Whenever your opponent draws an Interrupt card for any destiny during battle, use 2 Force and throw it out! The destiny draw still counts (it is not canceled!), but that pesky recycling 5 can be taken a little further away from a player who is a good destiny tracker.

You may also think that devoting a weapon to Rachalt isn't really worth the effort for a Force drain +1 (even with Inconsequential Losses), but don't forget that if the opponent isn't running Menace Fades, Honor Of The Jedi, or Jedi Test #1, this is a handy way to turn a site with no Dark Side icons into a pesky "pinger." Of course, Rachalt ain't too great at avoiding weapon fire herself -- so keep her safe aboard something enclosed, and lo and behold, her +1 to drains still works! Maybe this Dark Side uncommon will find a place in a few of your decks after all?

Oh yeah, and the answer to the pop quiz? Takeel!
