Strategy
This card heralds the return of the almighty Walker Garrison deck. Being able to start this effect with Prepared Defenses is a great boost to this classic deck type. On your first turn, you can immediately go and grab the 3rd Marker, which combined with the 5th Marker gives you 4 red icons and a +1 Force Drain location, while the Light Side only gets one blue icon from you in the bargain. Plus, you are guaranteed to have a Walker Garrison in hand right from the get-go, so you are all set to drain like mad once you've got all your Walkers in position.
The best part of this card, however, is its ability to deal direct damage just by occupying Hoth marker sites with AT-ATs, which any self-respecting Walker Garrison deck has in abundance. If you choose No Escape as one of your starting effects, this direct damage will not be cancelled by Honor of the Jedi, which is a good thing since your force drains at non-battlegrounds will be negated by that powerful Light Side card. Be sure to pack a couple Presence of the Force to help turn those Marker Sites into battlegrounds and add to your drains in the bargain.
For a third starting effect for this deck type, you probably want to start with Imperial Arrest Order. This will give a big boost to all your Walker pilots, and allow you to deploy the Hoth: Echo Docking Bay right away, a great place to plop a Walker to help drain with Walker Garrison. Unfortunately, the Docking Bay isn't a Marker Site, but it's still a great battleground to drain at with your Walkers. An alternative starting effect is Imperial Decree, which is pretty easy to keep active with this deck and which can really hurt those cowardly Rebels.
